Abstract
The invention provides a children's playground device to be used for climbing up and sliding down. The device is configured in the form of a pyramid, having a multi-sided base and planar surfaces extending upwardly and inwardly to a top pad at the center. Alternate planar surfaces are adapted for climbing with padded, irregular surface treatments, and intermediate planar surfaces are adapted for sliding down with low friction smooth surface treatments. A resilient pad is supplied around the base to cushion the downward impact of users of the device. A further embodiment is configured as a semi-pyramid and is adapted to be placed against a wall or partition.
