That is the lowest limit in our balance range, so they suit early years and lower primary rather than a Year 6 class.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get for that is a shape a child cares about. \"Cross the river without touching the water\" works with plain discs; it works considerably better when the stepping stones are crocodiles, and a four-year-old will do twenty crossings instead of five.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 40cm long they are a genuine stride apart when spaced out, which is what makes the balance real rather than decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe supplier's own guidance:\u003c\/strong\u003e children should play barefoot to prevent slipping, or wear sensible footwear indoors; and the stones should be on a dry, even surface for maximum stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it sits on weight.\u003c\/strong\u003e Load limits across our balance range run from 60kg to 200kg and they are not interchangeable - the crocodile stones and the two Weplay seesaws stop at 60kg, the river stones at 80kg, the Gonge Build N' Balance system at 100kg, and the wooden rocking board at 200kg.
