Abstract

A recreation system resembling a jungle scene is provided with platform elements surrounded by and elevated by support members disguised to look like bamboo rods and tree branches with leaves. The support elements are generally made of pipe materials covered with foam and plastic cable ties so as to resemble bamboo. The tree branch elements are interlocking members designed to appear as tree branches and are changeable to allow for different configurations of tree elements by pulling the present elements apart and then pushing them together in other configurations. The recreation system includes jungle and bird noises and simulated lightning and thunder which are activated during play on the recreation system. The recreation system allows the user to pretend to be in a jungle setting during play.
