We discovered the place through friends who recommended it. It is a bit hidden away at the top section of the Johannesburg Old Fort which is part of the constitutional court precinct. I took my young children there once and they just loved it and keep asking to go back. This has resulted in several trips there now. It is basically a children’s museum with many activities which children can play and learn from. Be sure to get onto their mailing list so you can hear about their many events. We recently attended a book reading by young author Stacey Fue which was inspiring for my children.

It's a great initiative where they turned this 'painful' part of South African history (The Old Forth is a building - part of the Apartheid Prison at the Constitution Hill in Johannesburg) into children's play area. It offers interactive games, S.T.E.M. learning/building area, mobile and action games. Children can also learn about children's human rights and South African democratic voting process. The hosts were very nice and friendly, children relaxed and communicated with them with ease.

We took our 2 year old grandson. Firstly, we were warmly greeted by enthusiastic, well-informed staff. Everything was squeaky clean and beautifully maintained. We had as much fun as our grandson, playing with all the installations. Highly recommended, and please donate to this excellent initiative online.

Play Africa is run by an incredible staff with massive amounts of passion for the kids. They run such an awesome initiative and have a beautiful play area for kids! I love what you're doing to assist the children in South Africa. Keep up the great work guys!

A children's museum in heart of Jozi gives local and foreign visits a super fun and educational place to hang out for a few hours. I mean a court room for children? That's incredible!
