An article of play apparatus is provided having an open-ended, hollow rotatable member which is maintained in an elevated, horizontal orientation by two support members located one at each longitudinal end of the rotatable member. A plurality of padded ridges extend along the longitudinal extent of the rotatable member. In this manner, children can climb through the rotatable member while other children climb over it, causing the rotatable member to rotate. A novel bearing system is housed inside each support member.

An article of play apparatus is claimed having an elevated platform and two inclined surfaces which extend downwardly from the elevated platform. Cylindrical ridges traverse the first inclined surface, and allow children to climb up the first surface toward the elevated platform. Children can then descend the second inclined surface, which includes adjacent padded rollers over which children can slide or crawl. In one embodiment, the first inclined surface is planar, but has a number of padded cylindrical wells suitable for receiving the hands and feet of a child.
