VILLAGE
As you step into Sofia's Play Garden at Lauritzen Gardens, you’ll discover a miniature town complete with a charming neighbourhood and a lively market square filled with interactive play features to keep children entertained for hours.
Venture further into the gardens and you’ll come across larger-than-life birdhouses, each brimming with hidden details waiting to be uncovered.
Designed with inclusivity at its core, this playground invites exploration and sparks curiosity, encouraging children of all ages and abilities to engage all their senses as they play and discover every corner.

A PLAY SPACE DESIGNED WITH INCLUSIVITY AT ITS CORE
The goal for the new play gardens at Lauritzen Gardens was create a unique, educational play space with inclusivity at the forefront, providing engaging play opportunities for all children, together.
Each of the three playground areas has been thoughtfully designed to ensure accessibility for children with mobility and cognitive challenges. Right from the rubber flooring, which is wheelchair-friendly to the sensory play features promoting more calm, reflective play, this space is truly a place for every child to thrive.
Our approach to creating inclusive playgrounds is expressed through six focus areas.
