Kids

A mix of social and active play for children 5-8 years old.

5-8 Year olds

A PLACE FOR IMAGINATIONS TO PLAY AND SHARE

Kids at this age love (and benefit from) role playing and social interaction. Scramble caters to these developing needs with four interconnected imagination zones for pretend play.

western Camp & TRAIL

Kids can role play as indigenous natives or pioneers in the Wild West and ride the historic Pony Express.

Dino Dig

Budding paleontologists can excavate pretend dinosaur bones and drive the all-terrain vehicle.

Railway Station & HANGAR

Is your kid fascinated by machines? Here they can explore the great trains and planes of the Industrial Revolution.

CLIMATE SCIENCE LAB

Little scientists can make discoveries and tackle the challenges of the future with the help of a friendly robot.

5-8 year olds

UNLEASH THAT ENERGY AND KICK OUT THE JAMS

The Sport Court is an open area for physical play and developing motor skills. The kids are in charge here, using the soft play equipment and their imaginations to come up with games and challenges.

GIANT BLOCKS & JIGSAWS

Soft blocks are great for building giant structures – and then tearing them down, which is just as much fun.

free-play balls & nets

Kids can use these to organize small scrimmage games or practice skills like kicking, throwing, and catching.

5-8 year olds

THIS IS THE ULTIMATE IN
SOFT, SAFE PLAY

While the educational aspects of our Play Through Time central attraction are intended for slightly older kids (8 and up), adventuresome younger children will enjoy the four slides, zip line, and rope bridge found in this massive structure.

EDUCATIONAL ADVENTURES

They’ll explore dinosaurs, the lost world of Atlantis, the Industrial Revolution, emerging 21st century tech, and more.

PHYSICAL CHALLENGES

They’ll also have fun climbing, crawling, hopping, and exploring – finishing with a big drop slide!
