THE PLAY SPACE

OPENING LATE FALL 2024

For toddlers, children and pre-teens ages 0-12 years old.

The Play space is designed with the belief that children thrive best when given the freedom to imagine and create.

Our space is filled with a curated selection of ambiguous materials. From versatile items like rope, fabric, pillows, and blocks to innovative products from Nugget, Superspace, and Imagination Playground.

TRUE IMAGINATIVE PLAY

Imaginative play is all about letting children create and explore their own worlds through make-believe.

It’s when kids use their imaginations to transform everyday objects into something magical—like turning a cardboard box into a castle, a stick into a sword, or random Lego pieces into a spaceship.

It works best when the items the children are working with do not already have a job, or at least not “one” job.

For example, a toy firetruck is just that… but a red block could be a toy fire truck; but also a chunk of meat, a brick, or a piece of treasure.

That’s why everything in our space is multipurpose and dependent on your imagination!

ABOUT THE SPACE

1. Food & Snacks are not provided at the space.

2. Shoes will come off in our entryway, and socks must be worn. If you forget socks, don’t worry - we’ll have extras here for you!

3. Unless it is a caregiver participation session, adults are asked to drop off and go. We are close to many awesome places for self-care, eating, and drinking!

4. As seasoned childcare providers, we at Playsticity know that public washrooms can be intimidating. While one of our washrooms is full handicap-accessible, the other is designed to be kid-friendly. The toilet is shorter, has a quiet flush, and has the option of a smaller toilet seat.

5. Your timed session starts when the session starts, not when you arrive.

6. Please be on-time for pick up! Life happens, and we know that well. Please give us a call if you will be late. We will do our best to be flexible, but an additional fee or membership suspension may occur for repeat incidences.

7. True play is inherently risky, and risky play is essential for growth. We encourage children to try new things and test their boundaries. Please refer to our extensive liability waiver when booking for more details.

8. Behaviours are complicated. Our team has spent many years working with children, and we know that every behaviour communicates a need. However, we are committed to offering a safe space for all. If your child’s behaviours are causing distress to any other participants or staff, action will be taken. Please refer to our behaviour agreement when booking for more information.
