The Wild Space: Play, Explore, Learn
Children learn best when they are outside, playing, and exploring the world around them. This outdoor learning scape brings all those concepts together for a one-of-a-kind experience.
The Wild Space has two interpretive areas: one focuses on
the world above your feet
and the other
the world beneath your feet
. This area is near the parking lot, just down the
green trail
.
