Metaphor
Hello, teachers
I don't get the meaning of the metaphor used in this sentence.
The slide on the playground was a hot stove.
What is the meaning of the sentence?
As far as I understand 'a hot stove' means a conversation on baseball following season.
However, here it doesn't make sense to me.
Please, help mr with this.

In very hot, sunny weather, the steel surface of a slide can get very hot, too hot to touch even.

This is odd. People normally talk of being in a playground.
