The outdoor play environment at Gardenia Early Learning Ellen Grove has been meticulously crafted to integrate sensory-rich, nature-based, and active play experiences that support key developmental milestones through intentional spatial design. Subtropical planting weaves throughout the site, framing winding pathways, balance beams, and a creek bed crossing to create an immersive biophilic setting that encourages exploration, balance, and physical coordination. This inclusive, multi-sensory design fosters holistic growth by promoting purposeful play and meaningful connections with the natural environment.
