A children's indoor play area is a leisure venue designed to provide a safe yet fun environment where children can play. They generally cater for children aged between two and twelve, and have separate facilities for different age groups. Many play areas include a café for parents to use while their children play and some offer Internet or TV facilities. Most also cater for children's parties.
An indoor play area usually provides just the equipment for children to play on and requires them to be supervised by a parent or carer. Staff monitor the play area but do not have formal roles supervising children or providing childcare.
The play equipment provided usually includes ball pools, tunnels, vertical rollers, slides, climbing equipment, sliding poles and platforms. In areas for toddlers and younger children, play equipment focuses on low-height soft play, including balance beams, tunnels and slides.
