Introduction
Play is the means by which children discover and understand the world in which they live and is an
essential element in a child’s physical and mental growth.
It is important for children’s rounded development that, through play, they arrive at an understanding
of danger, which provides a basis for assessing safety in a variety of situations. The balance between
challenge and safety is an important consideration.
The inflatable play equipment referred to in this document can provide different levels of challenge and
excitement. This document aims to minimize the level of risk and the possibility of serious injury while
allowing children to enjoy themselves when playing in or on inflatable equipment.
This document acknowledges the difficulties of addressing safety issues by age criteria alone because
the ability to handle risk is based on the individual user’s level of skill and not age. Moreover, users
other than the intended age range might make use of the inflatable equipment, in which case, the
provisions of this standard still apply.
It is not the purpose of the requirements of this document to affect a child’s need to play nor to lessen
the contribution that inflatable play equipment makes either to the child’s development or meaningful
play from an educational point of view.
Where inflatable play equipment is combined with other items of children’s playground equipment, the
relevant standards applying to the other items of equipment should also be consulted.
