Why these ages?

Infant swing, junior slide and glider give toddlers real options with two shade sails and picnic seating supporting supervision. But the playground sits directly by the beach and an adjoining skatepark shares the site — two clear pulls for a toddler that parents can't switch off. Multi-play, climbing frame and skatepark reward primary-age and tween active play strongly.
