A playground equipment for children, consisting of iron, duralumin, or wooden rods arranged in a three-dimensional grid. It is often installed in children's parks, kindergartens, and elementary schools. Climbing through and climbing down this grid not only satisfies a child's natural desire to climb trees, but also helps train motor skills and muscles. It is also designed to be less dangerous. It was originally a trademark name.
