Toddlers are young children between the ages of 1 to 3 years old, so it is important for their safety that the slide chute exit is not too steep. If any portion of the slide exceeds a 24 degree slope, the recommended length for the chute exit is 7 and 10 inches. This is because a longer exit provides a gentler slope for the child to slide down, reducing the risk of injury. The other options are incorrect as they either do not provide enough length to create a gentle slide or are too long and may not fit on a standard toddler slide.
