Bijou Balance Brace

Turn a simple stretch of backyard space into a balance challenge kids can come back to again and again. The Bijou Balance Brace creates a slackline-style balance activity that works as a standalone setup or as part of a larger Bijou Build play space. It is a great choice for kids who love climbing, balancing, testing their coordination, and finding new ways to move.

The adjustable line can be set between 6 and 12 feet, so you can tailor the challenge to your space. The system is designed to support up to 250 lbs and is recommended by Bijou for ages 5+.
