Animal sculptures at Jimboomba Park

Enchanting Australian playground sculptures promote nature-based play

Natureworks recently completed the design and construction of a custom-designed organic seedpod cubby house and a series of native wildlife Australian playground sculptures. These were​ for the Rotary Park playground in Jimboomba, near Brisbane in QLD. The work was commissioned by the Logan City Council.

The installation provides an enchanting play experience for kids of all ages. It reflects Natureworks’ ongoing mission to create a unique range of nature-based playground elements that enhance learning and nurture a love of natural history. We strongly believe in the value of nature-based play!

The organic seedpod cubby house was inspired by the seedpod of the local Melaleuca tree, combined with imaginative artistic elements from nature. It was custom-designed and manufactured in concrete, with an internal steel armature, and is sturdy enough to be climbed on. The cubby has internal organic fungi seating and a little opening at the top for kids to sit and enjoy the view from a raised platform.

Nature-based Australian playground sculptures

In addition to the cubby, Natureworks created a series of native wildlife animal sculptures to be placed around the park including a kookaburra, a koala and a platypus. Of course, these are just some of our animal statues and Australian playground sculptures.

Our playground theming products include a wide range of animals, nature-based outdoor furniture, artificial rocks and trees, dinosaurs, fantasy creatures and much much more.

Benefits of nature-based play

A nature-based playground lets children incorporate a natural element into their imaginative play, providing a connection with their environment. If you are after a play area to inspire and delight young people, Natureworks can design something for your indoor or outdoor play space. We provide a full custom design and construction service.
