Introduction:
At Beyond The Spectrum ABA Therapy (BTS), we know that children learn best when they are engaged, active, and inspired by their surroundings. That’s why our center includes a spacious, purpose-built Open Playground—a dynamic environment where therapy and play come together to nurture development, confidence, and joy.
A Bright, Welcoming Space
Our Open Playground features a large open floor plan with tall windows that fill the space with natural light and create a warm, uplifting atmosphere. Wide skylights bring the outdoors inside, giving children a sense of openness and calm.
Whether they are exploring independently or participating in guided activities, children enjoy a safe, comfortable place where learning feels like play.
Features That Inspire Growth and Connection
Every element in our Open Playground was chosen to support sensory exploration, social skills, and physical development. Highlights include:
- Interactive Ball Wall Games: Children love engaging with colorful, moving targets that improve coordination, visual tracking, and motor planning.
- Interactive Floor Projection: A dynamic, projected play surface encourages movement and problem-solving through games and challenges.
- Rock Climbing Wall: This fun climbing experience builds strength, confidence, and spatial awareness in a safe, supervised setting.
- Sensory Wall Panels: Different textures and activities invite children to explore tactile input and practice fine motor skills.
- Activity and Play Areas: Flexible spaces for group games, imaginative play, and skill-building exercises.
- Stimulating and Enriching Toys: Carefully selected toys spark curiosity and provide opportunities to practice communication, sharing, and creative thinking.
- Learning Toys and Activities: Educational materials are integrated into play to reinforce concepts like numbers, letters, colors, and social routines.
Why an Enriching Environment Matters
Research shows that children with autism thrive in spaces designed to balance stimulation with structure. Our Open Playground provides:
- A safe place to practice motor skills and coordination
- Opportunities for social interaction and turn-taking
- Sensory experiences that support regulation and attention
- Encouragement to try new activities in a supportive setting
Family Involvement and Observation
Parents and caregivers are encouraged to observe from our Parent Viewing Room and see how their child engages with the playground’s many features. Our team is always available to share strategies for incorporating similar activities into home routines.
Serving Families Across North Metro Atlanta
Conveniently located in Alpharetta, our center proudly welcomes families from Milton, Roswell, Cumming, Johns Creek, Sandy Springs, and surrounding communities. The Open Playground is just one of the many ways BTS creates an inspiring environment for children to grow and thrive.
