Windward Mall's New Play Area

On Friday, Windward Mall opened up its new 1,102 square feet Play Area, and my son and I was fortunate to attend the opening festivities.

Located on the lower level near Macy's and Big City Diner, the new play area is larger than the old play area which used to front Sports Authority.  Based on a theme of “Hawai’i’s sea treasures” to raise awareness on ocean protection, the play area is sponsored by HMSA and features a coral stack, dolphin and waterfall slides, a surfboard, a boat, and so much more!

Kids can crawl, climb, slide, and balance, while parents or guardians keep and eye on their kiddos from the ample seating surrounding the play area.

"In addition to raising awareness for ocean protection with the new keiki play area, Kamehameha Schools has also supported this initiative with the implementation of three rain gardens on Windward Mall property which work to remove pollutants harmful to natural stream and marine ecosystems,” said Gary Evora, senior asset manager for Kamehameha Schools.

If you have a little one under 42" tall, be sure to check out the fab new play area at Windward Mall!
