Each wing is designed specifically for the age group it houses, with attention given to such details as the size of plumbing fixtures, counter heights and window locations. The Everett Family Center s classrooms are designed for specific age groups. The commons area in the center of each wing functions as a small multipurpose room for group activities and indoor play. Each group of classrooms is called a home base and is designed with a residential theme to provide a home-like atmosphere for the children. Parents are encouraged to visit the center and to participate in lunchtime and other daytime activities.
Children can go from classrooms directly to their assigned playground areas.
Each area is designed to be suitable for its designated age group. The infant playground has a covered porch swing so that caregivers or parents can swing with their babies. Preschoolers can enjoy a sand-digging area, large climbing toys and a tire swing. All of the playground areas are connected by a paved path on which the children may ride tricycles. It will serve BCAG headquarters employees, as well as families who work at Boeing sites in south Seattle, Renton, Kent and Auburn.
