Situated in the Oasis Gardens, the Children’s Discovery Zone is designed to capture and arouse a young person's interest in the desert world. It gives children an "up close and personal" experience of desert animals and plants, both familiar and unfamiliar, and inspires them to think, wonder and want to know more about the desert, through physical exploration and role-playing.
This mixed environment lets children encounter the desert biomes, or basic components that constitute a desert: mountains, dunes and oases. To keep the attention, this is designed as a sensory-rich environment, filled with touchable objects, animal sounds and scented plants. Discovery elements in the park help parents to bring the subject to life with their children, by making comparisons between the animal families, homes and food with their own lifestyle. There is a range of programmes and experiences within the play area which are carefully planned to meet various levels of child development and experience.
