Answer: The word 'climbing' is a gerund in "The children enjoyed climbing on the playground equipment".

Explanation: A gerund is a non-finite verb form which functions as a noun. Moreover, a gerund can play different syntactic functions in a sentence: it can act as subject, as direct object or as object of the preposition<u>. In the sentence "The children enjoyed climbing on the playground equipment", "climbing" is a gerund since it is functioning as a noun and acting as the direct object.</u> In contrast, in the other two sentences, "climbing" is a present participle.
