Funky Monkey Bars has been recognised as one of Australia’s best designers with an invitation to exhibit at the The Big Design Market in Sydney and Melbourne in 2019.

The Big Design Market in Sydney is coming up soon on September 20 – 22, in the Cutaway at Barangaroo Reserve giving Sydney-siders an opportunity to play and order Funky Monkey Bars for a pre-Christmas delivery.

Funky Monkey Bars asked Potential Therapy Services for Children Occupational Therapist, Hollie Rogan about how she uses monkey bars in her therapy program for kids.

“Monkey bars are a great tool for regulation, providing deep proprioceptive and vestibular input like hanging upside down, or swinging.  They’re also great for the development of gross motor skills - such as core strength, motor-strength and motor planning and co-ordination."

Funky Monkey Bars can help you to secure the best Christmas, birthday or 'just because' present with our Lay-by Plan that allows you to pay off the kids’ favourite Funky Monkey Bars frame over time.
