Choose Safe & Exciting Playground Slides | Kidzlet

Playground Slide are a quintessential part of childhood. That exhilarating rush of zooming down a shiny, curvy path is pure joy for kids of all ages. But with so many slide options available, choosing the right one for your playground can feel overwhelming.

Here at Kidzlet Play Structures Pvt. Ltd., Delhi’s leading manufacturer of Children Outdoor Playing Equipment, we understand the importance of creating a fun and engaging play environment. This article will guide you through the exciting world of playground slides, helping you select the perfect one for your space and target age group.

Let's Slide into the Fun!

Here are some key factors to consider when selecting playground slides:

Age and Ability: Younger children (toddlers and preschoolers) require shorter, gentler slides with easy-to-climb stairs or ramps. For older kids, taller spiral slides or wave slides can add a thrill factor. Consider the range of ages that will be using the playground and choose slides that cater to different abilities.

Slide Material: Metal slides offer a classic, fast ride. However, they can get hot in the sun and may not be ideal for younger children. Plastic slides are a versatile option, offering smooth, cool surfaces in a variety of shapes and sizes. Kidzlet Play Structures uses high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic, known for its durability and UV resistance, ensuring long-lasting fun under the sun.

Slide Design: There's a slide design for every kind of adventurer! Straight slides offer a simple, fast descent. Wave slides add twists and turns for extra excitement. Spiral slides provide a thrilling, 360-degree experience. Consider the play value you want to create and choose slides that will spark imagination.

Choosing the Right Slide for Your Needs

Beyond the type of Outdoor Playground Slide, consider these factors when making your selection:

Age and Ability: Toddlers will do best with gentle slopes and easy-to-climb ladders. For older children, you can introduce more challenging climbs and steeper descents.

Space Availability: Measure your play area carefully to ensure the slide fits comfortably and allows for a safe landing zone.

Material: Choose slides made from high-quality, durable materials like HDPE plastic that can withstand constant use and harsh weather conditions. Kidzlet Play Structures prioritizes safety and uses top-of-the-line materials in all our products.

Theming: Consider incorporating the slide into your overall playground theme. We offer a variety of colors and designs to match your existing equipment or create a brand new look.

Safety First: Essential Considerations

Safety is paramount on any playground. When selecting a slide, prioritize these aspects:

Guardrails: Slides for younger children should have sturdy guardrails along the climbing ladder to prevent falls.

Rounded Edges: Look for slides with smooth, rounded edges to minimize the risk of scrapes. Kidzlet Play Structures ensures all our slides meet stringent safety standards.

Landing Zone: The landing zone at the bottom of the slide should be clear and have a soft, shock-absorbing surface like mulch or rubber playground tiles.

[lets-try-some-writing]

For the record, I blame TikTok for this idea.

So I’m not sure if you’ve ever seen or experienced one these godforsaken kiddie Jigsaw traps, but in the US we have these fucking metal slides 🛝 that are literally death contraptions on some of our public playgrounds. It’s basically a Canon Event for everyone, doesn’t matter if you’re a kid or an adult, to get their shit absolutely wrecked (and their asses and the back of their legs burned if it’s summer) on the way down these slides crafted by satan himself for character development that spit you out at Mach Jesus speed and quit literally skin you a new one during the process.

How would the TFP Autobots react to their humans going down a metal slide and just being shot out and tumbling out of the end like a can of coke in a vending machine?

Or better, what if the TFP Autobots (as holoforms) went down a metal slide? Possibly acting as a gigantic bowling balls and slamming into some poor unsuspecting human children like they were bowling pins? 🎳

Back on Cybertron, before the war, did Cybertron have their own equivalent of the notorious metal slides on their sparkling playgrounds?

I have indeed felt the wrath of the satanic metal slides. I've lived all over the globe and it seems like every country has their own lovely rendition of the terror that is the human grill disguised as playground equipment. Many a childhood memory has involved being chucked around on one like a bowling ball. I love this idea so thank you for coming up with it for me.

━━━━━━ ⊙ ❖ ⊙ ━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⊙ ❖ ⊙

The team were well aware that the humans had to keep their young entertained. Cybertron has its own rendition of the human 'playgrounds' to keep rambunctious sparklings from getting into trouble. Thus they were not at all surprised when the children one day asked to stop and check out a playground on the way back from school.

Optimus and Ratchet had been out taking a drive together in order to take a break away from it all, but quickly decided to come park with the rest of the team while the children played. Ratchet would die before admitting it, but watching the children play brought him a degree of comfort. There had been no sparklings amongst their kind for centuries, and so seeing the young of another race play so freely was a minor comfort. The team shared the same sentiment as they watched Rafael go up and down on the swings and chuckled at Jack doing his best to keep Miko from fooling around and possibly breaking something.

Of course the moment of quiet joy came to an end when Miko, in all her infinite wisdom, declared that going down the slide was in their best interest. By that point Ultra Magnus, Smokescreen, and Wheeljack had parked as well, each wanting to see what had the attention of the other members of the team. They too were quickly drawn into watching as a rather spectacular scene played out that brought forth old memories in all of them.

Jack had opted to go first down the metal slide at the playground, curtesy of Miko calling him names. He seemed to contemplate the universe at large as he patted down his trousers, pulled up his socks, tucked in his shirt, and laid his arms across his chest. He looked to the team almost pleadingly before he sat down and very nearly threw himself down the slide as an unfortunate hiss echoed from where the sweat from his play was turned to vapor. The team collectively watched in horror as Jack was thrown off the end of the metal abomination and sent careening into the wood chipping that made up the ground around the playground. Arcee very nearly transformed to check on him but remained still at the prompting of the rest of the team and in response to Jack groaning and getting up, albeit with a lovely red mark on his face from where his cheek unfortunately hit the edge of the slide on the way down.

The team were still reeling when Rafael was forcefully pushed down the abomination as well, not having been given any time to prepare for the trial ahead. The small child stood no chance as his tiny body was bat around like a ping pong ball and promptly shot off the end of the slide as well, joining Jack in his misery. Ratchet almost burst a wire as he watched the two boys compare burns and cuts from where the wood chipping got them. Optimus and Ultra Magnus both were trying to comprehend what the point of going down was. Wheeljack and Smokescreen were stuck trying to understand why children would go down a grill like surface. Meanwhile Bulkhead struggled alongside Arcee to not transform and check on their charges. In the end the team remained still, each keeping their disguises in place as Miko prepared to go. However due to her cruelty toward Rafael, Jack opened up his water bottle and dunked her with it just as she was going down.

Miko screamed as she slowed down to a horrible speed on the abomination. There was not enough water to make her go faster, and so instead she got stuck, forcing her to roll the remainder of the way down to avoid burns. She tumbled off the edge like a bowling ball and careened right into the wood chips. The team were left in absolute shock as she got up, looked over her burns, and called it a day. Seeing the children's reaction toward it all had Smokescreen breaking cover somewhat to call out with a question.

Smokescreen: Why do you do that? Doesn't heat hurt you squishies?

Miko: Yeah, but this is a coming of age thing.

Smokescreen: How? This doesn't seem like a useful ritual.

Jack: Every kid goes through this Smokes. Out here where its hot, you must learn the wrath of the metal slide.

Smokescreen: But... it hurts right?

Rafael: Yeah, that's why I don't like going on them. But like Jack said, its just something you do as a kid. Its a rite of passage of sorts.

Miko: YUP! You didn't have a childhood if your legs weren't skinned by one of these bad boys!

Smokescreen: It can't be that bad. Its just a slide!

In large part due to morbid curiosity, Smokescreen took what the children said as a challenge and hurriedly formed his holoform. Before the team could stop him, he stood at the top of the slide, smiling as if he weren't about to face agony. Miko grinned, Jack groaned, and Rafael looked away as Smokescreen who with no idea how the survival strategies of metal slides worked, threw himself down it. The rookie screeched as he got stuck halfway down due to poor momentum and hurriedly scrambled to get off in time. He grabbed the edge of the slide, ignoring the burns in order to hurl himself into the bark below. He laid on the ground groaning as the children laughed and winced. The team were shocked for the most part. Smokescreen was a trained soldier, and while certainly not the most experienced, he was no weak link. Pain was not unusual for him to experience on the battlefield.

For him to scream and panic? What started as concern turned to similar morbid curiosity as one by one the team formed their holoforms to attempt the trial of humanity's children. Other children came to the playground and began to giggle and laugh as the team lined up and watched as each made an attempt to best the rite of passage for human spawn. Smokescreen only managed to drag himself to his feet after a toddler stepped on his fingers. At that point he joined the rest of the team, forming an odd line of strange adults all waiting for their turn to best the slide, or at least attempt it.

Wheeljack, in his similar infinite wisdom, opted to go next. Having seen the children's attempt and Smokescreen fudged one, he was ready. Ensuring his holoform had gloves, he prepared himself to go. However he he forgot about the benefit of having long sleeves as he threw off his jacket in a celebratory manner and plopped down on the slide, arms crossed over his chest like Jack did when he went. Unlike Smokescreen, he did not scream when the torture that was the blazing hot slide hit his bare arms, but he did make an undignified sound as he was careened off the end of the slide and sent tumbling out of the bounds of the playground and onto the cement. He proceeded to scramble to his feet to get off the cement only to promptly trip into the bark, face first. Miko laughed herself half to death, and seeing Wheeljack's attempt, Optimus, Ultra Magnys, and Ratchet raised their metaphorical white flags and sat back, none wanting to be involved.

Wheeljack and Smokescreen, both having been defeated quite brutally, sat beside the Prime and medic, both grumbling at their loss. Ultra Magnus sighed and returned to his vehicle mode as Bulkhead, quite sure of his ability, decided to be the one to go next and test his mettle on the human torture device that even children could overcome. He took great care ensuring his holoform was covered head to toe, and he even went so far as to add goggles to his outfit just to be safe. He was ready, and so he threw himself down the slide with even more aggression than Wheeljack. He did actually manage to survive the slide itself, but he ended up flying off the end of the metal abomination and skidding across the wood chips, right into a group of children. The children rightfully began crying and parents quickly hurried to chastise the wrecker. Sensing the situation was about to become worse, Bumblebee, not wanting Smokescreen to have one over on him, decided that sliding with Arcee was the most efficient.

Thus just as Optimus and Ratchet got up to try and deescalate the situation at the foot of the slide, Bumblebee with his spectacular planning ability, plopped Arcee down in front of him and sent them both sliding down the metal abomination. They screeched as they sped up, losing control about halfway down and spinning a bit. Optimus for his part hurriedly gathered up the human children and pushed the parents away in time for the duo to go flying off the end. But Bulkhead who was receiving a lecture from Ratchet, happened to see the flying set of mecha in their holoforms, and barely moved aside in time for Ratchet to get the brunt of the crash. All three were left groaning as they were skidded across the wood chips, with Ratchet cursing up a storm in Cybertronian and Bee hurriedly rushing back to his vehicle mode so as to hopefully speed off before the wrath of the resident medic could reach him.

At the end of it all the children were laughing so hard they could hardly breathe and Optimus could only sigh in the manner of a truly tired parent as the led his team back to base. Upon arrival, the children only had one thing to say aside from their mockery.

Miko: Did you bots not have slides on Cybertron?

The team fell silent as they absorbed the question. The younger members of the team looked to the elder who gained a haunted but wistful expression on their faces. Swiftly speaking in Cybertronian, Ratchet moved forward to reply.

Ratchet: We did have 'slides' in a sense. There were ramps where young sparklings would test their ability to transform and either launch into the air if they were fliers, or fly and flip if they were grounders.

Rafael: Then why do you sound so afraid of them?

Ratchet, two seconds away from cursing: Because child, much like your human rite of passage nonesense, every single sparkling with access to such a ramp tested their skill against it-

Bulkhead: And every last one of them ate slag at least a dozen times before getting it right.

Even Ultra Magnus and Optimus seemed haunted as Ratchet played a video file, one showing a young unnamed sparkling standing at the top of a ramp. The sparkling smiled, seemingly confident while others watched on and observed. Within a moment the sparkling had transformed as much as they were able considering their youth and skidded down the ramp. Only instead of performing gracefully, the young Cybertronian flew through the air, flipping and careening until they returned to root mode just in time to hit the rubbery looking ground with a thunk.

Seeing the image has the elder members of the team nodding as if it were normal while the sparkling in the video wailed in a strange mix of static and binary until their Caretaker came to soothe them. It was not the same, but Cybertronians had their own sparklinghood rite of passage.

It hunts me

"Daddah help pwease!" - you're afraid to get off the slide on the jungle gym, and Daddah - aka - Nam-Gyu has to save you, while Thanos captures this family moment as a livestream for his fans. Only, Nam-Gyu is reminded , of one of the deadly games of the Squid Games… and has a panic attack when he looks down at the playground floor.

TW: Flashback, Anxiety, Panic Attack, Strong Language Kind of, Thanos x Nam-Gyu, Idiots in Love, Fear

The courage you had , just when Appa (Thanos) encouraged you to climb the jungle gym and slide down the slide all by yourself – because at almost 3 years old, you're a big girl and cool – and the daughter of the best rapper in all of Korea and you're cool, yeah… you believed Appa and ran as fast as you could with your flashing shoes (those sneakers that flash at the edges for kids when you walk or run) to the stairs whose steps would lead to the toddler slide.

You had to cross a small bridge. The structure was maybe five meters above the ground. Not high enough to be seriously injured in the event of a fall (there were enough safety elements on the sides of the slide) – and you had watched closely as the other children before you (before Appa's influence that you would be just as cool as him) played on the jungle gym and slid down the slide.

Now that you're standing in front of the slide and looking down, you're no longer sure…you don't want to slide anymore…it looks dangerous and not like fun.

Uncertainly, you take a few steps back, away from the beginning of the slide, and fear spreads through you.

"Appa! No slide!" - you call out to Thanos, who was sitting with Nam-Gyu on a nearby park bench, on his cell phone.

"You can do it! The legend Thanos believes in you, Princess!" - Thanos said, unimpressed, and just gave him a thumbs-up.

But this gesture and the words didn't make you brave at the moment…you didn't want this anymore. NO.

And so you shake your head tearfully and fall onto your backside, tears welling up in your eyes, and you look at Nam-Gyu. Daddah.

"Daddah! Help pwease!" - you call in Nam-Gyu's direction, and the club promoter sighs once, but then sets off to rescue you from the nasty slide…after trying to persuade you to give your fear a kick in the ass because…just like that.

But of course, that didn't work, and now Nam-Gyu is squeezing his way up the small staircase to lure you to him…or at least trying to.

"Okay - come here. Daddah´s here just come to me and i pick you up and you don´t have to go down the slide"

From your seated position, you watched as Nam-Gyu crouched down and held out both hands to you. A gesture that would normally have made you run towards him immediately.

Normally.

"Live of the Internet is your Legend Thanos - capturing this Moment of fucking Family Fluff - take a LOOK at that!"

Thanos's hushed voice and the announcement that he'd just casually created an Instagram livestream for his fans to share the totally sweet moment of you and Nam-Gyu with the world didn't bother either of you…well, you didn't break eye contact with Nam-Gyu and you're used to Appa sometimes speaking in that loud, chaotic Korean-English voice when he's making videos. Nam-Gyu just gave Thanos a nonverbal signal to stop the bullshit…but who was Thanos to listen to the words of his partner and the best club promoter in all of Seoul?

" Daddah…arm....up....up" - you whimper, raising your arms up… a sign that you're so scared you don't even dare to meet your Daddah a little… something that makes Nam-Gyu's heart break slightly.

"Okay, Daddah will come for you… and then your Appa Thanos will get a kick in the ass for that idea", - Nam-Gyu mutters, moving slowly forward. It's no problem for him to walk upright across the small bridge until… until he looks down.

And stands frozen, his gaze fixed downward.

His heart rate increases… panic rises within him as he looks down at the abyss, and reality and traumatic memories seem to merge before his eyes.

… the panicked screams of the other players echo muffled to him. One step too far to the right across that bridge and it would be over. Nam-Gyu had done well in the past games…despite the loss…he had struggled so fucking hard with Thanos being killed…in the men's restroom. It still hurt to think of the chaotic man who had made his heart race, and not just because of the drugs.

A loud gunshot behind him made Nam-Gyu flinch, and his right hand opened…the chain slipped from his hands and flew over the edge of the bridge.

"Fuck no!" - Nam-Gyu cursed when he realized what had happened and knelt down on the ground, his trembling hands gripping the edge, looking down into the abyss…he couldn't see the chain from up above, but it broke his heart again.

The chain was the last thing he had of Thanos. Once again, Nam-Gyu regretted never fully confessing his feelings to the rapper, but fuck…he clearly had feelings for Thanos. And now…now he had lost the chain…that…fuck…that was the end of him…he needed the chain…it…it was almost like a lucky charm…almost as if Thanos were still with him, saying…come on, my brother, together we'll win this shit and become famous and rich, yeah!

But Thanos was gone…the chain was lost and….Nam-Gyu had a panic attack at this renewed realization…why had Thanos taken it away from him? Why couldn't he just protect the last memento himself…now it was gone and….

"Player 124. Refusal to end the game will result in immediate disqualification!"

The Triangle guard's voice reached Nam-Gyu only muffled, as he stared up with pure fear in his eyes and…what was that? Had the guard just made a secret hand sign with his right glove that only Thanos and Nam-Gyu had invented on the first night of partying at the club…could…could this be a coincidence?

With shaky legs and a sniffle, Nam-Gyu stood up and continued the game.

The sweet win and the realization after winning the Squid Games this year , was, that Thanos not only survied and chilled in the VIP Lounge, but he also paid the Guard to give Nam-Gyu this sign....a push in the right direction to not give up and cross the Bridge safe and sound.....

But in this Moment Nam-Gyu felt like he was back in the Games ones more. He couldn´t breath, he coulnd´t think and he couldn´t comfort your sad crying.

As if in a trance and controlled by pure fear, Nam-Gyu sank to his knees in the middle of the small bridge, his gaze averted from you and also from the words of Thanos, who had now lowered his phone and paused the live stream. Nam-Gyu looked to his left. It was so high and so damn scary. Where was that chain? What was happening here? Was that the smell of blood and panic in the air?

Thanos seemed to realize what was happening to Nam-Gyu, and because Thanos knew exactly what to do, the legend simply climbed up the slide onto the climbing frame, lifted you up in his arms with a "shhh, it's okay, Princess, come on, let's comfort Daddah with a big hug" and then squeezed onto the bridge next to Nam-Gyu to pull him into a hug and thus bring him out of his memory.

"We never have to go back to this place again, Nam-Gyu. We have each other… our daughter, a ton of money, and the internet loves us… you're not alone anymore, bro, do you hear?" - Thanos whispered softly to Nam-Gyu, who was trembling and seeking protection in the hug – with you somehow in the middle of it.

It was strange for you to see your daddah like that… but a comforting hug makes almost everything better.

"Daddah no cry… Appa safed… good job Appa," you said, patting Nam-Gyu's black head of hair a few times.

"You heard me, Nam-Gyu, I saved you both… you're safe with me. Safe…" Thanos repeated the words like a magical spell until both you… and Nam-Gyu calmed down.

"I'm so stupid to cry about something like that…"

"Don't give me such bullshit, what happened at the Games was crazy. If the VIPs hadn't saved my sexy ass, I wouldn't have been able to save what finally gave me light and hope again."

"You mean the drugs?"

"I'm talking about you, you intelligent being."

"I…was your light of hope…you never mentioned that."

"Brooo, you never mentioned that a bridge scare you sooo.... like that would take you so much…on you yeah...."

"I lost the chain back then and thought I'd lost you forever."

"Oh Nam-Su" - Thanos deliberately used the wrong name to confuse his partner a little before giving him a quick, reassuring kiss.

"Kiss Kiss…too!" - - you say, giving your Daddah and then your Appa a toddler kiss on the cheek, then clapping your hands. As if nothing had happened and you're just happy to be in this embrace now.

"And now…let's go get pizza…or burgers. I could almost eat a club promoter and a princess - I'm THAT hungry!" Thanos emphasized, and after making sure Nam Gyu was safely on his feet, he grabbed his hand to pull him behind him, while he held you a little tighter with his other hand and the three of you walked up the stairs of the jungle gym.

Safe.

Something…that neither Thanos nor Nam Gyu could ravage. They had survived the Games and built a new life together.

And both men would be willing to fight to preserve it.

No matter what it will cost.

THE END

Maybe there’s a different reason why you shouldn’t climb up the slide…
