My family and I just purchased our fourth trillium. This time we went with the XL to accommodate all five of us. As soon as we opened it, we put it up and enjoyed being in the trees for several hours. I have been extremely pleased with all of the trilliums we have purchased. I am a forest kindergarten teacher and I take the trilliums to the woods at school and stack them three high for the kiddos! Each kiddo has to pass the challenge of being able to flip off the bottom level before they can go to the second level. Once they are able to do the flip, they have to be able to get onto the second level by themselves. The only way they can get on the third level is if an adult in up there. We have had several “meet me in the forest” outings where the parents get to come out and play. The trilliums are always the main attraction! Not only are the trilliums a fun way to enjoy the outdoors, they have also helped my personal kids and my students work on their bilateral coordination, their proprioception, and their vestibular sense. In a world so focused on game systems, kids do not get outside and test their limits as much, which doesn’t seem like it would make a difference in their everyday lives, but it does! Children need that type of input to help with balance, coordination, and it even helps with their ability to focus. Children need to be outside enjoying and appreciating nature! I can’t wait to see how my students enjoy the XL!! We might be able to get half of the class on one!!
