I heard from others they've been waiting for almost 2 hours. Well we couldn't wait anymore and left. Funny thing is that those who were ahead of me had to wait another hour before they got their Schleim. The monster Schleim is not worth it. There are more fun booth's

It is not natural and also small but very quite and relaxing. For the summer, I recommend the river beach and with the kids, especially during August, they set up an educational and cool event. This year the theme is year 1517 and from chess to archery and making old time jewelry to doing some field work. Children in school will not be bored. Have an extra cloth incase getting wet ( water activity sometimes but during summer, most of the time) and bringing snack and drinks for children are the must. Not only the paid attraction, they do have multiple playground at the front and also the back of the building for free, kids love them. I am glad that I live closeby because there is nothing like this.

Dubbed as the mothers of all playground by the author from the June 6, 2016 New York Times article, this beautiful, rustic, run by children playground / park is not adults friendly, in fact, if you really want to come, you must wait outside like a homeless person on a bench out on the street. People soon began to wonder if you really have business to be out there. So to avoid any unwanted looks, go to the nearby coffee shops and / or restaurant. or do as I did, you make friends as you sit on the bench and chat up with other parents. After all, this is a totally the coolest neighborhood. It got the best vibe as it's in East Berlin. What do you know? They are all Americans. ALL Americans. Waiting for their children. Also bored to death. And also, a bit worried. Soon to distract yourselves, you start to discuss Brexit, the rising housing price in the Bay Area, other countries, and the housing price in Berlin. This is where you learn the inner secrets. Where do people go? They go here, this East Berlin neighborhood is super cool, excellent energy and it's filled with a lot of interesting shops and restaurants, and have a rising Jewish community. What do children like to do here? You ask. How the hell would I know? I was yelled at for attempting to take a photo while the children wandered inside. I mean, screamed at. But seriously, do not take photos. And do not sit inside of the arch, they will have games and soon the entire entrance is taken up by children and the counselors. They will politely but firmly ask you to get out. If you are lucky, you are permitted to use the bathroom inside but do not loiter. As you head to the W.C., you see the sign of today's activities. The activities were abundant, today it was archery, baking, and a whole lot of wood work where the children are building wooden houses inside. The verdict from two sophisticated world travelers? A bit boring, the houses are poorly constructed (maybe they are built by kids?), and seeing the parents are not nearby, they were not as settled as they would at other parks. Even though everyone working inside speak perfect English. That said, this should be a great inspiration for someone to write the German equivalent of "Bring Up Bebe". I'll read it if you write it. As for me, a 4 star from the unimpressed children; a 5 star from me, for making new friend with some American-turned into Berliner while waiting outside. We exchanged info, and she'll give me a real estate agency she liked. East Berlin may see a lot of me in the next ten years.

However, personally, I really wasn't all that sure what to expect, or I did, I was simply expecting there to be a lot of models to look at. However, while that is the case, and that you can go on tours and have a look at them, it turns out that this is basically a store that specialises in Lego. Well, that isn't necessarily a bad thing thing, but I guess I simply have too many other things to keep my mind focused on.

As a couple adults, we had a nice time but maybe slightly underwhelmed. The butterfly room has some interesting and unusual creatures.

The temperature is very comfortable and the facility is well cared for. The staff were all friendly and helpful.
