⁠
- TinkerTots is where children (aged 6 years and below) can play with educational toys.⁠
⁠
- The Toy Library offers educational toys, puppets and costumes for children (aged 6 years and below). ⁠
⁠
- Older kids (7-12 years old) will love the Storyteller Cove which features interactive experiences for children to learn about the writing process and be inspired to create their own stories with DIY activity kits and tactile stations that include story prompts, guided story crafting, prop-making, and more.⁠
⁠
- The Stories Come Alive Room uses moving images and text, plus light and sound effects to make storytelling an immersive and interactive experience for children aged 4 to 10 years.⁠
