INDOOR PLAY AREA BENEFITS
We offer a safe and imaginative kids indoor play area for the simple reason that it is fun for children. Also, we love science and data. The evidence supporting the significant developmental benefits of open and pretend play for young children continues to be added to by comprehensive research in the field of child development and educational psychology.

Providing time for our children to have self directed play stimulates their imaginations, encourages them to problem solve, and allows them to refine their social skills – helping them to build a strong framework for a lifetime of learning.

In a recent Scientific American article, The Need for Pretend Play in Child Development, Yale professor Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman and his distinguished co-authors Dr. Jerome L. Singer and Dr. Dorothy G. Singer summarize the last 75 years of research on this topic by declaring imaginative play as ‘a vital component to the normal development of a child’.

Despite all that we know about the benefits of play, the actual time children spend playing continues to decline precipitously. According to a recent study (Elkind, 2008), children today play eight hours less each week than their counterparts did only two decades ago.

Equipped with this body of knowledge, we must take action for the sake of our children on what inherently and deep down we always knew well: our children need to play on a daily basis. While a solid education is vital, the Increasing the use of standardized tests, decreasing time for recess, rote memorization of facts/figures, and over structured schedules will not create the visionary leaders and creators our world needs now more than ever. Our kids indoor play area provides a safe environment for children to interact and have fun.
