Playplace

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Playplace, also known as a Play Place, Playland, or Play Palace, is a large indoor (or sometimes outdoor) area where children can play and romp around on indoor structures. Playplaces are mostly linked to or built in public businesses, such as restaurants, department stores, shopping malls, and in some places (albeit built on a smaller scale), airport terminals and car dealerships.

Some playplaces are very small, only the size of an office desk. Mostly called play areas, they are meant for toddlers and very small children (around ages 1-5). They normally have rubber or carpet padding on the floor, and they have three walls that have some sort of interactive activity on them, such as wheels to spin, little simple mazes, and (on occasion) little infant toys.
