1 – Challenge your imagination at playground of the future
Is this a classroom or a playground? It’s both! ‘WOW Kids’ is a unique futuristic edutainment hub that enables kids of age 4 years and above to interact with creative media technologies and innovative artistic experiences. Four innovative concepts and games combine to strengthen cognitive, creative, artistic and physical skills of children: a UFO Shooting Range where children use soft toys to strike flying saucers that float on a digital wall; ExoPlanet where kids fill colours on a drawing of their favourite animal while a scanner instantly transports it into the cosmic forest; Puzzle Blocks where cushioned blocks are used to construct towers of various sizes and types, while smart technology projects a colourful creature that fits the blocks perfectly; and WOW Aquarium where children’s favourite aquatic creatures are transported from paper to a digital wall like magic.

After your little one’s impressed by tech and imaginative learning, it’s time for some good old play involving physical exertion. The ‘Inflatable Slides’ at Modhesh World is one of the largest and most popular attractions at the park. The little guest can climb on to the summit of the slide, see a breathtaking view of the park, wave at parents and tumble over the cushioned slide to come down in rapid descent. A perfect mix of fun, excitement and physical exercise in a safe environment is what will make this ride memorable.

3 – Save the world from zombies through a VR adventure
How does one balance fun and the responsibility of saving our planet from foes? At the ‘Omni Arena’ game, you sport on a Virtual Reality (VR) gear and cut off from the surroundings while you take down the dangerous zombies. This exciting game features three distinct gaming scenarios. The gamer is suspended onto a digital platform that detects movement of the feet and replicates it on to the game. And all this while your family and friends view your progress on a large screen and cheer for you to pass every level.
