Frequently Asked Questions

• How does the Blue Squirrel Clubhouse compare to other outdoor swing sets and playhouses?

  Existing swing set brands offer so many choices with so many different configurations to choose from but the reality is that most parents select a kid playhouse or swing set with these classic features: swing, slide, climbing wall, monkey bars. We cut out the guesswork to deliver those core features and so much more! 

  The Blue Squirrel Clubhouse has a rejuvenated aesthetic and intentionally designed playset accessories to deliver a modern approach best-suited for today’s contemporary children. While play has long been recognized as a source of development for kids’ mental, physical and social faculties, the role of play has been increasingly prioritized during a global pandemic that threw kids’ education and development into the spotlight for many parents.  As a brand born out of the “parenting during the pandemic” experience, Blue Squirrel differentiates from the competition by combining intentional focus on aesthetics, functionality, and safety with features that emphasize developmentally-appropriate guided play.  The Blue Squirrel Blog, Climbing The Walls, is filled with ideas for creative and collaborative play.  

  The Blue Squirrel Clubhouse is designed to deliver a premium experience for both kids and parents at a competitive price point. While other outdoor play brands often add-on more costs related to delivery and third-party set up fees, Blue Squirrel will launch with free white-glove delivery and installation.

• Does Blue Squirrel offer other playset models?

  Not yet. Currently Blue Squirrel only offers The Clubhouse, its inaugural playset.  As a company dedicated to intentional design, industry-leading safety standards and a modern aesthetic, Blue Squirrel spent months working with a team of industrial product designers and engineers to perfect its first kids outdoor playset model.  The team plans to launch more outdoor products in the future.

• What is Blue Squirrel’s sustainability policy?

  As a company that is rooted in the mission to create happiness through healthy and positive outdoor activities for kids, we are committed to doing our small part to help protect and improve the environment. 

  We are following the lead of our brand’s namesake backyard animal - the squirrel! Did you know that squirrels are often responsible for planting new trees? On occasion, squirrels will forget to dig up their acorns, effectively planting trees in the process!  We’re dedicated to reforestation, which is the process of replanting trees. Through onetreeplanted.org, we have seeded the "Blue Squirrel Forest" with 1,000 trees planted in honor of our first 1,000 email newsletter community members.

• What are Blue Squirrel's safety standards?

  Blue Squirrel products are designed by a team of award-winning industrial designers.

  The Clubhouse design went through extensive safety and durability testing both via computer simulation and in-person testing during the prototyping process.

  The Clubhouse complies with ASTM safety standards for Home Playground Equipment (ASTM F1148-22).

  Throughout the production process individual product components are reviewed to ensure they meet the most stringent regulatory requirements in the industry.

  The structure is made of durable polywood and supported with a steel infrastructure.

  The Clubhouse will be anchored to the ground using steel anchors.
