Such a sports corner is also called the "Pickler Triangle".
Pediatrician Emmy Pickler lived and worked at home in Hungary. She developed her parenting system. E. Pickler said: "In fact, we refrain from learning certain skills and actions, which in appropriate conditions will develop independently on a children's initiative." Those. an adult should only create certain conditions, and the child himself, through trial and error, will develop his skills.
Triangle Pickler is a sports corner for children from several months. This is a universal material that develops the baby’s motor skills, his physical strength, agility, spatial imagination, which gives freedom in the game, self-confidence and joy of achievement. Climbing the steps of the ladder and the slides of the hill of the triangle Pickler gives the child an understanding of the place of his body in space.
To the traditional slide-ladder, the craftsmen also added a climbing board.

Step One: Project
First, a sketch of a sports corner was drawn. Based on the available material, dimensional calculations are made.
Step Two: Crossbars
The crossbars are made of a round spike with a diameter of 2.5 cm. For the staircase you need 13 crossbars, six on one side and seven on the other. After trimming to the desired length, you need to step back from the edge, 15 cm on each side, and wrap the crossbars with masking tape.
Then the edges of the crossbars are painted with non-toxic paint of different colors.
Step Three: Feet
The legs of the stairs are made of poplar boards. Boards are cut to size. Grinded. At one end, they are cut in a semicircle.
Then you need to cut blind holes for the crossbars.
Step Four: Build Stairs
Now you can assemble the stairs. For fixing, carpentry glue is used.While the glue is dry, it tightens the stairs with clamps.
Step Five: Triangle
Using a triangle, two parts of the stairs are connected. The angle of the slide should be 30 degrees. With this in mind, fixing holes are marked and drilled. The triangle itself is made of birch plywood.
Step Six: Build
Now you can collect the slide. To one staircase the triangle is screwed tightly with screws, to the other it is fastened with the help of fixing bolts. Threaded inserts are installed in the mounting holes. This is done so that you can "fold" the slide.
After assembly, the edges of the triangle were machined with a mill.
Seventh step: climbing board
The base of the board is birch plywood. Cuts plywood to size. Marks up. Drills holes and installs threaded bushings.
At the end of the board glues an edge tape.
Two transverse bars are attached to the top of the board. The distance between the bars is about 3 centimeters. With the help of bars, the board is fixed on the crossbar of the stairs.
Now you need to fix the hooks on the board. Hooks are easily mounted and dismantled and the masters select the most optimal option.
Hooks can be made independently of wood. Of course, they differ from the real ones, but such hooks can be used for training. Wooden hooks can be made in various shapes and sizes.
Children's sports corner is ready.
