We’re excited to announce our new partnership with Lappset USA, a global leader in interactive playgrounds and technology driven play experiences. Known for blending physical movement and social connection, Lappset’s interactive playground products represent the next evolution of outdoor recreation design. Together, UltiPlay and Lappset are bringing cutting edge, tech-enabled playgrounds to communities across New England, including Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Connecticut.
As parks, schools, and municipalities look for new ways to engage children and teens, interactive playgrounds are becoming a powerful solution. Lappset’s technology-focused play systems encourage movement, collaboration, problem solving, and repeat visits, all while getting kids outside and active.
What Are Interactive Playgrounds?
Today’s kids grow up immersed in technology, but that doesn’t mean play needs to move indoors or onto a screen. Lappset’s approach bridges the gap between digital engagement and outdoor recreation. Their interactive playground equipment uses sensors, lights, sounds, and responsive games to create immersive play experiences that evolve over time.
These technology enabled playgrounds are especially effective for engaging older children and teens, age groups that are often underserved by traditional playground equipment. Interactive play also is also highly inclusive because it provides multiple ways to participate, no matter your physical ability, age, or skill level.
Lappset Product Spotlights
We’re excited to showcase some of our favorite Lappset interactive playground products to our customers across New England. These are four of our favorite pieces:
Sona Interactive Dance Arch
Sona is an eye-catching interactive arch that invites players to play underneath its stunning frame. Using lights, sound, and motion sensors, Sona offers a variety of games that promote physical activity and teamwork. It works as both a standalone attraction and a complement to traditional playgrounds, fitness areas, and park spaces. Sona is ideal for schools, community parks, and public spaces looking to create a high energy focal point.
Memo Interactive Pillars
Memo combines physical play structures with digital memory and reaction games. Players climb, move, and interact with illuminated panels that challenge their coordination and recall skills. Memo encourages social play and friendly competition while supporting cognitive development. It is a strong fit for school playgrounds and inclusive play environments.
Sutu Interactive Ball Wall
Sutu unites sports with the playground environment. Designed as a digital ball wall, Sutu responds to kicks, throws, and strikes with lights, sound effects, and game challenges. It is especially popular with older kids and teens and works well at schools, recreation centers, and urban park settings.
Luna Interactive Dance Spot
The Luna is the younger sibling of the Sona, serving as an interactive box that has advanced sensor technology and is accompanied by a Luna Play Floor. The Luna is ideal for indoor play environments, from shopping malls to indoor rec centers. As you approach the play floor, a voice calls out inviting you to play the game. Using overhead sensors to detect movement, Luna creates an immersive play experience that anyone can take part in.
Why Is Interactive Play Important?
Interactive play is important because it meets children where they are, combining the excitement of technology with the proven benefits of outdoor physical activity.
Interactive playgrounds encourage kids to move, run, jump, and interact while engaging their curiosity through lights, sound, and responsive challenges. This type of play supports physical fitness, cognitive development, and social connection, all in a screen free, outdoor environment.
Technology enabled playgrounds also help address a common challenge for parks and schools across New England: how to engage older children and teens. Interactive play systems like Sona, Memo, Sutu, and Luna evolve with each use, encouraging repeat visits and long term engagement. They are inclusive by design, offering multiple ways to participate regardless of ability or age.
For communities in Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Connecticut, interactive playgrounds create dynamic, future ready spaces that keep kids active, connected, and excited about outdoor play.
