Our Proudest Monkey Tree Fort built in Alexandria, Virginia.

As you can see from the photos at left, the Bears Playground in Alexandria is handsomely flanked by trees, with perfect cohesion with both the surrounding buildings and the safety surfacing under the playground.

This area of northern Virginia is a destination where colonial charm blends harmoniously with some of the most dynamic activities in the Washington, D.C. area. Founded in 1749, Alexandria celebrates a rich heritage while offering modern fun and recreation — like a Bears Playground!

With Bears Natural Playgrounds, you will not find any bright orange colored wood or circus tent tops ... just bold, strong, built to last designs, beautifully stained rustic wood and hunter green accents. Bears Playgrounds are designed to compliment the natural setting of any environment.

To make our nature inspired playgrounds, we use Natural Materials, like our beautiful, whole, round Northern White Cedar logs with all their natural features. Our cedar logs have a fat end and a skinny end like a tree (instead of a manufactured dowel), they have gorgeous wood grain, checking, knots, crooks, curves, etc. Our bold, strong and built to last architecture beautifies children's spaces, while capturing a child’s imagination. Our nature inspired products and natural materials help stimulate a child’s enthusiasm for nature — in a manner that is truly unique. In short, our products facilitate learning, create opportunities for exercise, help build social skills and help provide an unparalleled connection to the great outdoors.
