Let me guess, youre not vaccinated and nor are your kids?
Rotaviruses cannot be killed by normal sanitizing and nearly all children will have it (and developed resistance) by the age of 5. It almost never affects adults.
Might as well not let your kids do anything at that point, ballpits are not better at spreading rotaviruses than anything else. Ballpits are not clean, but the toys, floors and walls at the daycare aren’t either, not as far as rota is concerned at least
We all have every vaccine you can get. It’s possible I’m misremembering exactly what disease it was, but I promise you that a single instance of our kid in a ball pit ruined a vacation for two families.
Ballpits encourage contact with eyes, mouth, and nose, then spread it all around over the balls. They are especially difficult to clean. It would be difficult to design a better disease transmission vector if you were trying.

You’re children would be a statistical anomaly if they avoided rotaviruses entirely, ballpits or not.
