The Aces for Autism playground and Aquatix® splash pad in Winterville, North Carolina were designed by inclusive play experts especially for the needs of children on the autism spectrum. Play options abound offering sensory-rich experiences of all kinds as well as spots for rest and down-time. An inclusive Smart Play® Billows® play structure for ages 5 to 12 provides numerous unscripted play choices in a compact space. A cable net climber, a swingy pod bridge, a slide and more events offer outside-the-box play options. The Smart Play Breeze® for ages 2 to 5 provides a similar spectrum of exploratory play choices but at a "just right" level for preschoolers. Innovative freestanding climbers, spinners and seesaws – all-inclusive and accessible to children of all abilities – sit adjacent to the play structures, promising hours of enjoyment for children and their caregivers.
