FAMILIESPACE was once Big KIDSPACE. It was remodeled in the late 80s or early 90s and a new reporter stand and rock band room were added (the rock band room replaced a climbing structure). Two playhouses are in this section. Kids can play in them, use the pretend sinks, or build an integrated pipe system.
Also in this section is a fake hospital area, where kids can take care of babies.
Face painting is a staple of COSI. If a kid in Columbus is seen with his/her face painted, everyone knows they were at COSI. Kids can paint their face in this section or in Little KIDSPACE.
