The Soft Room is a safe play centre to promote activities that build up gross motor co-ordination, spatial ability and proper reflex movements. These activities are geared towards promoting self-awareness and confidence of the child’s physical self.
Sensory Room
Saraswathi Kendra has a sensory room, which is a specially designed room which combines a wide
