🌿 Big adventures start right outside our door.

Our outdoor play structures were designed with one thing in mind: giving children the freedom to explore, challenge themselves, and grow — safely.

What you'll find in our outdoor spaces:
🧗 Climbing frames that build upper body strength
⚖️ Balance beams that develop coordination
🌀 Slides and tunnels that spark imagination
🌱 Nature-inspired zones for sensory exploration

Children who spend time in rich outdoor environments develop stronger resilience, creativity, and self-confidence.

At Active Start, outdoor time is every day — not just when the weather is perfect.

Adventure on the high seas! 🌊

Our little explorers set sail in their boats today and went “fishing” for sea creatures during dramatic play. From paddling across the ocean to catching their next big find, their imaginations were hard at work the whole time!

Activities like this help build creativity, problem-solving, communication, and social skills — all while having so much fun together. 🐟⛵✨

Today our little astronaut was ready for takeoff! 🚀

As part of our Exploring Space theme, we dove into dramatic play by dressing up as astronauts, reading space stories, and imagining what it would be like to travel beyond the stars. Activities like this help children build confidence, creativity, communication skills, and spark so much curiosity through play.

🌳 Fresh air therapy, kid-edition.

At Harvest Hills, outside is where so much of the day happens. We're talking:

🧗 The climber + play structure (a daily favourite)
🏃 Wide open running room
🍃 Free play, group games, and good old-fashioned outside time

Movement is how little bodies AND big feelings get sorted out. And on the days the weather isn't cooperating? We've got indoor gyms ready to go.

☀️ Summer at Active Start Harvest Hills = the BEST kind of busy.

We've built a summer care program for Kindergarten to Grade 4 kids that's actually built around the stuff they love:

🎉 Themed fun days at the centre
🌳 LOTS of outdoor time
🤸 Gym games + Discovery Room adventures

Less screen time. More magic. Spaces are limited and they go fast — especially for Edmonton families who need a reliable summer plan that isn't camp-this-week, camp-that-week chaos.
