Hive Toddler Tunnel Package

The Hive Toddler Tunnel Package is designed for children under 3 years.

Our new range of full-hexagon Hive Climbers, Tunnel and challenge planks provides everything you need to create a versatile and exciting adventure space.

Why centres choose the Toddler Tunnel Package

• Genuinely toddler-scaled. Low decks and low fall heights mean under-threes access every part of it independently, the confidence dividend of “I did it myself” is enormous at this age.
• The tunnel does the heavy lifting. Crawling through an enclosed space develops core strength, spatial awareness and object permanence simultaneously. Children return to it endlessly.
• Warm, natural materials. Accoya timber planks bring a sensory quality plastic can’t, genuine grain, genuine warmth, and a look that give a true sensory benefit.

Included in this package are:
2 x 300mmH HIVE Climber Hexagons*
1 x Smooth Plank**
1 x Ladder Plank**
1 x Tunnel Attachment*

You can split some of the pieces from this set to use for younger children in 2-3 years play spaces. Add more planks as you need.

Space required:

Low-height toddler configurations often require significantly less surfacing than standard equipment. Ask our team to confirm the requirement for your yard, it may be smaller than you expect.

What it develops

Core strength and crawling patterns — tunnel crawling is one of the most complete whole-body movements available to a toddler, engaging shoulders, core and hips in the cross-lateral pattern that later underpins walking and writing.

Object permanence and cause-and-effect — disappearing into a tunnel and reappearing is a foundational cognitive game. Toddlers are running experiments, not just having fun.

Early balance and vestibular development — stepping onto a low deck and walking a plank calibrates the balance system at exactly the age it’s developing fastest.

Sensory regulation — the enclosed tunnel offers a calm, contained retreat, valuable for children who need to self-regulate away from a busy yard.

Early social awareness — peek-a-boo at scale. Emerging joint attention, anticipation and shared delight with peers and educators.

Language development — in, out, through, under, over. Positional language is learned in the body long before it’s learned in a book.
