Play Area

Play Areas support positive play, encourage creativity while developing imagination, dexterity and physical, cognitive and emotional strength.

KO-NEKT believe play is important to healthy brain development and through play.

Sensory room

Our indoor and outdoor play areas all have sensory toys, activities and materials, at KO-NEKT support encouragement is given to each child to help them try new activities and experiences to encourage personal development.

Day-to-day activities can be overwhelming for the senses, raising anxiety and the ability to communicate their needs.

KO-NEKT understands the benefits of ‘taking time out’ from the world to reconnect. Therefor we encourage time out in quieter spaces around our centres. We also promote the need for some children to benefit from quiet and messy sensory play which supports positive engagement with their environment, develop social skills, aid in communication and learning.
