About the Venue

Spirited Play Labs Berkeley is a purpose-built inclusive play space created for disabled, neurodivergent, and behaviorally different children while also welcoming siblings and the whole family. The experience is structured more intentionally than a typical indoor playground, with sensory-rich equipment, a calm-down space, softer pacing, and 90-minute sessions that help families who need a more supportive environment feel prepared instead of overwhelmed.
