Imbarimba

The Imbarimba outdoor instrument combines elements of two classic African instruments, the marimba (a resonated xylophone) and the kalimba (a thumb piano). The notes are arranged for easy access. The coated fiberglass bars are entirely weatherproof, withstand hard use and deliver the sound of a wooden instrument without the maintenance. Stainless steel resonators project rich tones with strength and clarity.

Exceeded Our Needs!

We can't speak highly enough of our experience with Blue Imp. Our organization had zero experience putting in a park and our consultant led us step by step, working with our budget to achieve the greatest fun for local kids at a price we could afford. He listened to our goals and concerns, and helped develop a plan that not only met, but exceeded our needs. Blue Imp equipment not only functions perfectly, but looks amazing! The variety of colors we chose are exciting and the children in the community are thrilled. From the first to last step, we had total support from Blue Imp. We relied on their expertise and professionalism, and highly recommend them to any organization looking to upgrade or design and install a new park. Jody Phillips, Dunmore Community Association

Play for All

"We are really happy with the new Blue Imp playground that was designed and built at our school by BDI Play Designs. We are a large school with over 500 students all of whom love to get outside and be active during recess times. Our new inclusive playground is great in that it is designed to ensure that ALL students can get on the playground. BDI designed the park with ALL students in mind and ensured that every student no matter what their abilities can play with their friends. Our new playground ensures that no students are left on the sidelines." Chris Good — Principal, École Barrie Wilson School

We LOVE our new playground!

"Our playground committee, made up of student representatives from grades 2-6 and a few staff representatives and myself spent considerable time determining the types of activities our students were familiar with and would like, yet at the same time having an element of uniqueness, and a focus on creative play and physical fitness... Tasked with the challenge to be innovative in creating a design that appealed to our students, Blue Imp did not disappoint. The new proposed design exceeded our expectations, and aesthetically, being able to be built in our school colours, our new creative playground is the envy of the community. Students are challenged to be creative, to develop fitness in a variety of ways, and there is always a ‘new way’ to maneuver across the equipment. From the designing of the playground, to the installation, to the follow-up service, we have been extremely pleased with all levels of service we have experienced. Thanks, Laura and Blue Imp, we LOVE our new playground!" Mark Leduc, Principal, Wellington Heights Public School
