About Zebra World
Zebra World is the Coachella Valley’s first indoor playground of its kind. With attractions ranging from jumbo trampolines to toddler playhouses and everything in between, Zebra World is sure to provide hours of entertainment for children and families alike.
Wall to wall trampoline coverage with a foam pit for free falling.
Rope ladder
A horizontal ladder constructed of rope. The goal of this obstacle is for participants to maintain their balance well enough to cross the bridge.
Below the rope ladder is a foam pit for participant safety should they lose their balance or fall off the rope ladder.
Duck and jump spinning obstacles
Two rotating beams placed at different heights—one high and the other low—around the center post. Participants are faced with the task of jumping and ducking to dodge the rotating beams.
This area is equipped with inflatable pads and padded coverings for participant safety.
Warped wall
A steeply curving wall obstacle with a short run-up with the intention of participants reaching the top.
Miniature obstacle course
The first obstacle course with an incline ramp for participants to climb to the top of the platform. Once on the platform, participants must cross the foam rock wall to arrive at the next platform. There, participants must hang on to padded spikes which leads them to the final obstacle—padded slanted steps. At the end of the obstacle is a slide for participants to disembark the obstacle platform.
The second obstacle course begins with a padded incline ramp which leads participants to either an arched bridge or an arched tunnel they must cross to arrive at the end of the obstacle.
Note: each platform is padded and below each obstacle are inflatable landing pads to prevent participant injuries in the event of falling.
Miniature ninja warrior course
A two-lane course, both offering a unique experience.
The first lane includes the following series of obstacles: tire swings, swinging rings, swinging platforms, swinging bars, and finally a series of slanted steps.
The second lane includes the following series of obstacles: ropes (with a circular platform at the bottom for support), padded swinging platforms, padded swinging bars, and swinging circular nets.
Note: each platform is padded and below each obstacle are inflatable landing pads to prevent participant injuries in the event of falling.
Jungle gym
Multi-level structure for participants to explore and crawl through.
The entire structure is enclosed with netting and equipped with padding to prevent participant injury.
Also equipped with a lounge-type area, tunnels, and slides for children to enjoy.
Playhouse
Foam blocks form the structure of the playhouses. This area is intended for toddlers to play freely in a safe environment with others in their age range.
