    Awwwwwwwwww
    Fox E.

    So this poor construction dude had his wife leave him, his dog ran away, and his truck got repo'd all in one month. How much can one Builder Bear!? Absolutely adorable store which has a bunch of Pokemon fluffy toys and cuddly dolls and all kinds of cute stuff that Barbie loves. So we had to come in here and take some sexy pictures because how could we not? Cute store inside Katy Mills that has a bunch of kids bears and stuff and who doesn't like that?

    We stopped here on a whim while we were on a weekend getaway and were so excited to find Pokémon! Even though my kiddos are a bit older, we all still had such a great time making memories here!

    They also have this very affordable option called a birthday bear, which is the cost of your kid's birthday!

    We absolutely love dinosaurs so when we saw this was in town, we got tickets. You can get them…read moreonline but also get them at the door, but if they're busy, you'll need to wait, as you get an entrance time in 30 minute intervals on your tickets purchased ahead of time. They have special pricing for family tickets - minimum of 4 tickets - and those below the age of 3 are free. If you play Jurassic World Alive, there's a special incubator you can get there. This is set up OUTSIDE of Katy Mills Mall... on the parking lot, to be exact. It's fairly obvious and easy to get to. We went with our 2 young kids, ages 3 and almost 7. We watched Jurassic World 2 nights ago to be prepared and the experience largely follows that movie. You're one of the visitors to Isla Nublar and you get a VIP tour that also includes seeing the hatching room and petting baby dinosaurs - namely a parasaurolophus and ankylosaurus (Bumpy). You also see the raptor cage and even sneak past a T-Rex! No Pterosaurs though. We heard there's a chance of jump scares courtesy of Blue, BUT that didn't happen on our tour. I assume it's because our group had a lot of young kids. A bummer (we prepared our kids for any possible ones, but it didn't happen). There is a human in the Blue costume. I felt that part was fairly tame - the fog machine helped set the scene but it was still PG. Maybe even G. Overall, it was pretty fun! For about $20 per person including the discount, it wasn't bad because the animatronics were pretty impressive. Family friendly, though one kid (maybe aged 7-8?) was scared with the T-Rex. Videos and cameras are allowed, just no flash. You get many photo opportunities throughout, staff will help you with photos, and you have a chance to buy the ones you take at the beginning. They have a gift shop where most of the things are overpriced (shirts, plushies). I grabbed a magnet and some postcards. I was also tempted with the posters. The biggest thing is they clearly favor certain dinosaurs over others. My daughter's favorite is stygimoloch but other than him appearing in the tour, he had no merchandise. On the plus side, I didn't fork over $30 for a Stygi plushie or shirt. I also wish there was a jump scare to make it feel completely worth it, but it was still great fun - especially for dinosaur lovers! Got home a few hours later and my 3 year old kept on saying how the dinosaurs were fun. Expect to spend no more than an hour there though.

    I will say the dinosaurs are very realistic. I like that they only let a small group at a time. I…read morefeel as though as it could have been more interactive. For example instead of touching dinosaur poop they could have had us touch the dinosaur egg or the baby dinosaurs. The dinosaur eggs should have cracked open when you pushed the button. Also they did not show the dinosaur eating the piece of meat as shown on TikTok. I understand it's in a tent but it was extremely hot. This would entertain a child 5 or below. The price of admission does not justify the experience.

Parking: parking is a big lot, and it isn't going to be a problem at all for anyone that is looking to come here Value: so I think anyone who accounts here is going to enjoy it because you're not going to be able to have this experience anywhere else.m and it's a funny, interesting experience that will allow you to try a few things. Hot tip: it's so hot tip is depending on when you go.It is going to be hot and you need to prepare for that.I would highly recommend that you bring fans and understand that you're not going to be covered at all. In one or two of the machines you might have a fan that's blowing on you but its HOT. When you can plan for trip I would really try to plan it for a mild day or try to avoid the summer altogether.

There are about a 3 tracks rides and about 2 areas of cranes we could use to pick up different items. And an excavator area to dig. We got lifted and also a bouncy area which was nice. There was a playground and sand area to play in. It's nice for the amount of people that were there. It would be awful if there were much more people cause of it being outdoors. But we came at a good day and had the best time. We got to try almost everything with ease and even repeated some.

    Great park! I've…read morenever been to a spot like this. Think indoor water park without the water, or obnoxious long lines. A little different from a trampoline park. Yeah you can get a little injured if your are thicc and have your knees and elbows rub off of the mat you're sliding on. I would recommend wearing cotton long sleeve shirts and long pants for extra protection. It's great for the kids and great for adults who are still kids at heart. I like how it's free for spectators too. So many places gouge adults for going in to watch their kids.

During the party, the assigned table collapsed. The host informed us that, per the manager, guests affected by the incident could receive a complimentary beverage at the concession stand. When I went with a family member to request the drink, we were met with unpleasant and unprofessional behavior. The staff--who appeared to be a group of young employees--told us the drinks had already been "replenished," made dismissive remarks under their breath, exchanged looks, displayed attitude, and were confrontational for no reason. It was uncomfortable and unwelcoming. When I attempted to clarify the situation with additional staff, I was told something completely different. The lack of communication and the disrespectful demeanor from the concession team completely ruined the experience. Despite the nice facility, the customer service was frustrating enough that I left early and will not be returning. A business can have great amenities, but the staff's attitude makes all the difference--unfortunately, that's where this place fell short.

    This place is perfect for my 7 year old son…read more We have been coming a little over a month and he loves it. I have a 9 year old daughter who tried a trial class and loved it as well, but she's in gymnastics and I only can afford one recreational activity for each child at the moment. Anywho... I love the fact that the coaches make the kiddos wash their hands upon entering. Afterwards, they head to the waiting area to get ready for class. The class is an hour long and the kids get to do quite a bit. There are climbing areas, ropes, bars, jump stations, and other spots for them to switch to. They start off with some cardio to get their little hearts racing. Normally, it's a few laps around the gym and some lunges or something similar. After that, they stretch and then get assigned to groups. Each group goes to a different station for around 5-7 minutes or so and then they switch until they've gone to all of the stations. They normally have a water break after the first half of class and then they head back to continue. The coaches are very nice and VERY patient. I've seen a few kiddos misbehave and the coaches have always remained calm while pulling them aside and talking to them for a bit. The age range from what I can see is from around 4-12/13 and all the kids always seem to be super excited when they arrive. If you're looking for something for your kiddo to enjoy that's fun and affordable, try this place out. It's 90/month for a weekly hour-long class and your child gets a shirt for registering. This place is clean, fun, and priced just right. You can't go wrong if you choose to come.

    Monster Mini Golf We…read morebought our tickets to play mini golf on Groupon, and we showed up around 3:30 on Saturday. The two teenagers working the desk told us there would be a 40‑minute wait. That would've been fine--except the 40 minutes turned into a full hour. We ended up stuck behind a large 6‑year‑old's birthday party, even though the course itself only had about four people actually playing. Instead of letting us play through or staggering groups, they just had us stand around waiting with no explanation. When we started to play golf, they handed us gaming cards for the arcade, which was very confusing why didn't they give it to us in the beginning so we had something to do, but we didn't come for the arcade, and we weren't doing anything--they just didn't manage the flow well at all. A few positives: the bathrooms were clean, and the place itself is visually fun. But be aware there's no real food available--just tiny bags of chips--and no alcohol. The only drinks for sale are canned sodas. Overall, the experience felt disorganized and not worth the hassle. If you're planning to go on a weekend, especially with a Groupon, I'd say it's not worth the discounts.

    This place is definitely a vibe. The mini golf course is nothing crazy but gets the job done and is…read morea lot cheaper compared to other mini golf courses in Houston. I just wish they had more than one course!
