    Recently visited and were well surprised by the variety of exhibits to explore. The space itself is…read morewell kept, staff is friendly and communicative, and the diversity of options is appreciated. The museum itself houses interactive options across all floors and allows the children and adults to "play" in each space.

    Weekday visits are far better than weekends. I have a pre-K child, and our first weekend visit was…read moretough, crowded play areas, kids pushing and not sharing, and a noticeable lack of parent engagement. Weekdays attract a different mix of families, and the experience improves dramatically. The exhibits are engaging, and my kiddo could happily stay at the bubble station on repeat. There is food on site, bathrooms are clean, and the staff is genuinely kind. As a parent, it is refreshing to have interactive museums like this in town. Adults can enjoy the activities too, but this space is designed for kids of all ages. During peak weekend hours, letting children take the lead makes the experience better for everyone. Only took one star because I wish there was more staff interaction- for times with children are not always kind & parents who are not paying attention. It's not ok for a stranger to get involved, so it would be nice if staff monitored just a little more. Still wondering if this is a museum dig or community parenting issue. You be the judge. 9/10 recommend!

    This zoo has a lot of potential, that they are certainly starting to capitalize on. The older part…read moreof the zoo definitely shows its age, but walk around a corner and wow! The multi-species enclosures are really amazing. The orangutans were out and playing and eating while we were there. The baby was having a good time and super fun to see. The free ranging peacocks were beautiful. Lots to see in a compact park. Don't miss the penguins! The park was clean and remodeling all at once. The expansion will be spectacular once done. The price is about normal, about $20/adult. The gift shop is about what you would expect. I'm glad we went. Parking was easy. Nice zoo, construction takes a little away from the experience.

The animals appear healthy and well taken care of. There's a brand new elephant viewing area and even an indoor penguin exhibit. If I had any complaints, it would be the main cafe in the middle of the park. It's not as clean as it could be and the cost is quite high for simple meal items. There is a shaded grass area though, so just pack your own food to save some money. Speaking of saving money, get on the bio park website and grab the yearly pass. Then you can visit as often as you want for a year. The pass also covers the Botanical gardens and aquarium to boot. The zoo itself does get a bit tight during busy times. We made the mistake of coming during spring break and it's way too many people. You feel like you're getting herded along since there are people waiting to get the best spot to look at animals, and with all the strollers around... Yeah, if you can manage it, go when the kiddos are in school. All in all, it's still a nice outing. Definitely worth visiting.

    Ok, so yea. This is an ok place. I like the fact that there's different rooms and there's a whole…read morelot of things to do but this place needs a makeover. Things could be neater. As you walk in, the manager is sitting at the front desk. He was really nice and showed me around the place. He was continuously apologizing for the mess, but didn't look like he did anything to change it. I really like the following ideas BUT: There was a movie room for the kids with a jungle team decor... BUT it could def use a new and cleaner tank for the fish in that room. There is a fun playroom with a lot of mystery boxes full of toys and a kids kitchen n play house... BUT the toys look as if they haven't been cleaned in a while. There was a couple of books available for kids to pick up and read. There was also a drawing or craft room BUT there was a bunch of broken crayons and household cleaning products in the same cabinet. There was a bouncy room... But that room could use better lighting. There are various picnic tables( im guessing for parties) My favorite part was a stage room with a changing room. There's awesome lights in there that can keep a little one entertained for days.... BUT the changing room was a bit disorganized. I would suggest this is a cool place to kill some time with your kids but keep in mind you have the wear rubber gloves and masks. We were there for pretty much 15 minutes and I had to wash my L.O. hands 3 times because there were some toys that felt a little sticky. Well, the only reason I tired it was because I had a Groupon. So, let me know if you wanna go amd try it yourself, I still have 3 more. I won't be going here again, unless new management kicks in or he decides he's going to have someone there to pick up everything and put it where it belongs. There's a lot of potential for such a big space. Hopefully someday someone decides to use it correctly.

    Very fun! I got a Groupon for half off & my girls (4&6) played for three hours straight. So much to…read moredo... Dress up, obstacle course, air propelled guns & a jumpy. Highly recommend!

    We took two grand kids (ages 5 and 7) to Creativity Warehouse for a pottery class that was…read moreadvertised in the January Cibola Neighborhood alerts. The pottery class was $40 per child. There were only 3 children signed up for the "Kids Clay workshop", so there was plenty of opportunity for the teacher to provide one-on-one attention to them. There was not much direction or instruction from the teacher on how to prepare the clay or proper painting technique to use on clay. She did demonstrate how to attach items to clay by scraping. For this age, we felt there should have been more instruction on designing of the objects and directions on how to paint the clay, so when fired, the color would be more vibrant. The color of the completed pieces was very washed out, almost if they had been just painted with water color. The teacher said the project would be ready in 7 to 10 days and that we would receive a text when the pieces were ready to pick up. It took 21 days and we were never notified for pick-up. We had to personally check 3 times to see if project had been completed and was ready to pick up. Very disappointed in the service after paying over $80 for the class.

    Every budding artist should come here for inspiration. This is not just a typical clay, throw on…read moreyour own wheel, sort of deal. Classes vary and can include crochet, painting, etc. I took my little girls and they just happened to have paint with a Princess where there was Anna and Elsa and they spent so much time engaging with the kids. They have lots of kids classes for all ages like make your own monster. Great staff and if you love to support local this is a great place!
