Passages, hiding places and resting
spaces in unexpected areas – the room
becomes a dynamic partner when play-
ing and learning!
Every time a child heads for their next
play area in a grow.upp room they
can explore differnet ways, as there
are several choices to make. Fantasy
and creative
thinking are
required. “Will I
climb over the
chill cabinet
(1) or crawl
through under
the retreat cabi-
net (2)? Today
I’ll take the path
through the
corner cabinet
(3).”
There are so many exciting corners that
children are required to think creatively.
Such a varied play area continually sets
new challenges.

“Hey! It’s getting
bright in the cave!”
“I can see colorful
light here!”
“Move over, I want to sit
under the leaves too!”
“Nobody can see me but I
can hear everyone …!”
“I can’t make up my mind...
Rest? Watch? Or crawl
underneath...?”
“Climb up – and
wheeeeeee slide
down!”
“I want to go
through here!”
– “Oh! I can go
through here too!”
