A playground apparatus, comprises: - a first platform assembly extending upwardly from a surface and including a first platform structure disposed at a vertical distance from the surface; - a second platform assembly extending upwardly from the surface and disposed spaced apart from the first platform assembly, the second platform assembly includes a second platform structure disposed at a vertical distance from the surface; and - a pole structure extending upwardly from the surface and disposed between the first platform assembly and the second platform assembly, the pole structure including a lever portion having at least one support structure for supporting a child, the lever portion being adapted to be pivoted between a first position and a second position, wherein - in the first position, the at least one support structure is disposed proximate to the first platform structure, - in the second position, the at least one support structure is disposed proximate to the second platform structure, and - a height of the at least one support structure from the surface when in the first or second position is substantially equal to a height of the first platform structure or a height of the second platform structure from the surface to facilitate an easy movement of a child between the support structure and the platform assemblies. - a first platform assembly extending upwardly from a surface and including a first platform structure disposed at a vertical distance from the surface; - a second platform assembly extending upwardly from the surface and disposed spaced apart from the first platform assembly, the second platform assembly includes a second platform structure disposed at a vertical distance from the surface; and - a pole structure extending upwardly from the surface and disposed between the first platform assembly and the second platform assembly, the pole structure including a lever portion having at least one support structure for supporting a child, the lever portion being adapted to be pivoted between a first position and a second position, wherein - in the first position, the at least one support structure is disposed proximate to the first platform structure, - in the second position, the at least one support structure is disposed proximate to the second platform structure, and - a height of the at least one support structure from the surface when in the first or second position is substantially equal to a height of the first platform structure or a height of the second platform structure from the surface to facilitate an easy movement of a child between the support structure and the platform assemblies. - in the first position, the at least one support structure is disposed proximate to the first platform structure, - in the second position, the at least one support structure is disposed proximate to the second platform structure, and - a height of the at least one support structure from the surface when in the first or second position is substantially equal to a height of the first platform structure or a height of the second platform structure from the surface to facilitate an easy movement of a child between the support structure and the platform assemblies. <EOS>
