The Facility: If you notice any unsafe behaviour or rules not being respected, please tell a staff member so that the situation can be addressed, and then the environment can remain safe and clean for our children. Balls of Fun also has good quality gym equipment and some very expensive balls. You have the responsibility and opportunity to teach your children how to play with gym equipment properly. If you or your children are not using the equipment or balls properly, it is the staff’s job to tell you how to use the equipment so that the equipment is not damaged and children remain safe.
