Sneak Peek Forecourt

The Sneak Peek Forecourt offers a warm and welcoming opportunity for visitors to catch a glimpse of what awaits them within the Children’s Garden gates. Visitors can sit comfortably and wait for their friends to arrive while admiring the Sunshine Celebration Arch.

Or they can follow the Little Feet Trail, an earth art installation fashioned after Ian Blakely’s work, to the Wayside Gnome and Kids Only Entrance. The Forecourt marks the starting line for interactive adventure, fun and learning in the ever-changing Ohio outdoors.

 

Sneak Peek Forecourt Sunshine Celebration Arch The Sunshine Celebration Arch punctuates the main entry into the Children’s Garden. On sunny days, overhead prisms make magical rainbows appear on the ground and on children’s hands and shirts!
Sneak Peek Forecourt Kids Only Entrance Little ones race ahead through their own entrance. A Cardinal (Ohio's state bird) topiary marks the entrance to the Willow Tunnel, a kid-sized pathway cloaked in living green leading to many garden adventures ahead.
