Snakes and Ladders
QUED® Snakes and Ladders is an ideal starter arrangement for rooms with limited space. The sequence offers varying challenges as children climb, slide, balance, and jump in a soft, safe environment, with repetition supporting individual and group skill goals.
Challenge
Provide a space‑efficient soft‑play course that supports climbing, sliding, balancing, and jumping.
Solution
Combine ramps, steps, and landings in ~44 ILD foam with reinforced covers and 51 mm (2 in) hook‑and‑loop joins to form a repeatable course.
The Shape
Linked ramps, steps, and landings are arranged into a compact course that can be repeated or reordered to suit the program.
The Construction
Each component uses a polyester‑reinforced vinyl cover (~0.61 kg/m² / 18 oz/yd²) over a ~44 ILD polyurethane foam core. Seams are inverted and cross‑stitched, with full‑width hook‑and‑loop flaps and a concealed YKK zipper.
The Operation
Lay out the sequence on a level floor. Join components with hook‑and‑loop, and reorder segments to vary difficulty and repetition.
