Kids Cove @ The Square — Attraction in Bellevue

From the time my baby turned 8 months old, we've been regular visitors to the kids cove, and I must say, it has become a go-to destination for us. The facility is thoughtfully designed to cater to infants and toddlers, offering a wide array of activities tailored to their developmental needs.

Kids cove variety of climbing apparatus and play zones have been a great source of excitement for my growing baby. The carefully crafted setups provide ample opportunities for exploration and physical development, which is especially important during these formative months. It's been truly delightful to witness my little one's progress as they navigate through the different play areas.

However, there's one issue that has slightly dampened our experiences: the inconsistent adherence to the "no shoes" rule.

I have to do my best to cover my little ones bum from being exposed while people are trying to maneuver around me. Overall it’s a great alternative play area for the...

So, I want to share what happened to us today, so someone do something about this. There is an unprotected stairs just outside of kids cove next to the elevator. My son today run when I was putting my shoes on and went backwards, he was one or two inch from falling down from the stairs and if he did, he could either die or have serious brain injuries.
