1. A modular slide apparatus for use on a staircase, the modular slide apparatus comprising:
an entry section comprising:
an entry surface defining a seat; and
a gripping surface substantially opposite the entry surface, the gripping surface being configured to interface with a tread of an upper stair of the staircase;
a ramp section comprising:
an elongated surface extending from the entry surface of the entry section at a downward angle towards a terminal end of the ramp section wherein the elongated surface comprises a first planar surface; and
an underside configured to rest upon portions of the staircase; and
a first sidewall and a second sidewall spanning opposing lateral sides of both the ramp section and the entry section, the the first sidewall and second sidewall each comprising an upper edge having a smooth upper surface defining a handrail, wherein the first sidewall comprises a second planar surface extending from a lower edge proximal the elongated surface to the upper edge, and wherein the upper edge extends further than the lower edge when measured along a length of the ramp section.
