Abstract

A children's play structure includes a frame having hinging sections capable of being arranged into a free-standing structure and interchangeable panels capable of removable attachment to the frame to provide multiple scenes on the plurality of hinging sections of the frame. The hinging sections of the frame comprise elongated beams or pipes joined at their opposite ends to form an open rectangular frame pivotally joined to adjacent hinging sections. In a first embodiment, the panels are provided by a piece of canvas folded over on itself and stitched together at opposite ends to form a sock which is dropped onto the frame. The canvas is easily replaced by another canvas having different scenes or murals to change the theme or environment of the play structure. In second and third embodiments, separate panels are removably attached to the different hinging sections of the frame by velcro patches attached to the frame and to the back sides of the panels or to portions of the upper and lower edges of the panel which are wrapped around horizontal frame members of the hinging sections. The frame in the third embodiment is comprised of lengths of pipe removable fastened to common pivotable columnar structures at the interfaces between adjacent hinging sections of the frame.
