This area is designed specifically for kids aged 2 to 10 years and features three distinct zones: a sand area that promotes tactile learning and self-regulation, an active play section that encourages socialization, gross motor skill development, and imaginative play, and a mindfulness labyrinth to help kids practice focus and calmness.
