From scoring with the right color ball at the dynamic Basketball Court to experimenting with shadow colors in Color Your Shadow, discover how light and perception alter your view of the world. Build and compare sand landscapes in Dig In!, navigate through a ball pool in Free Swim, and test your balance in Hopscotch. Create colorful patterns in Light it Up!, watch images transform as you move in Move it, Move it!, and play with perspective in Pause to Reflect. Challenge physics with the Speed Slide, have a perplexing game of catch on Give It a Whirl, observe mesmerizing patterns with Swinging Sand, and enjoy the unique stability of Tippy Chairs.
