What is a child-led playspace?
A child-led playspace is an environment where children are encouraged to explore, create, and play at their own pace, following their interests and curiosities without structured schedules or adult-directed activities.
What are the benefits of a child-led playspace?
Child-led play promotes creativity, independence, problem-solving skills, and social interaction. It allows children to develop at their own pace and fosters a love for learning through exploration.
What age group is the playspace suitable for?
Our playspace is designed for children age 8 months old to 12 years old, providing age-appropriate activities and materials to engage and challenge them.
Is the playspace supervised?
Yes, our trained staff are present to ensure a safe and supportive environment. However, they do not direct the play, allowing children to lead their own activities.
Can parents stay with their children?
Yes, parents with a membership can join in for free. Parents who sign their child up for ad hoc sessions pay $15 per person. Pre-arrangement will be required as there is a cap on the total number of parents or caregivers per session.
What types of activities are available?
Our playspace offers a variety of activities, including arts and crafts, building blocks, sensory play, imaginative play areas, and outdoor exploration (if applicable).
How is safety ensured in the playspace?
Safety is our top priority. The playspace and materials are regularly cleaned and disinfected. We have childproofed the environment, regularly sanitise toys and equipment, and have strict safety protocols in place. Sessions are recorded using security cameras.
Do I need to book a session in advance?
Pre-booking is required
