Volkswagen's Autostadt museum is adjacent to its Wolfsburg factory in Germany, and visitors can now find these blobby forms of stuff in the lobby. What is it? It's a playground made for kids.
Designed by architect J. Mayer H., the 'interactive playscape' was made in collaboration with Renate zimmer, a professor in sports science in Osnabruck University. The structures are made from solid wood, to help kids learn about sustainability.

It is also part of a larger kid-focused program that includes cooking classes and driving lessons to help kids develop their motor skills.

There are areas where kids can climb up onto steep inclines and explore different elements of the playground and set new goals for themselves and more.
