One of our son's favorite spot was the "Market" lol anyway, we had fun taking pictures with Mickey and Minnie and loved the surprise Balloon drop. Bonus was the spacious parking lot across and babytown area for kids 2 and under. They can host private parties, and even have books and toys for sale. Now if only there was food and coffee for purchase! lol Either way, loved Neverland fun and their wonderful staff! Thank you! Will keep an eye out for other events!

Highly recommended for open play toddler fun!…read more This place is brand new (opened late in 2024) and everything inside looks it. It's much bigger than you'd think, and the different play areas/stations were nicely done. The owners and staff are all extremely nice, friendly and helpful.

The children play area is absolutely stunning with all parts of it designed with beautiful interior and decor. At floor level there are play area, climbing wall, a small market and in upper level there's make believe home, walkway to the giant slide. The children's party table is in the back. Also two restrooms including a family one. They have cute small sink and water filter for the kids too. Few sitting spots available around the play area to watch the kids. Through out the party the cafe employees assisted with handing out pizzas to the kids, organizing the cake cutting ceremony and finally wrapping up left over. They are strict with hours, so everything was wrapped up right on time. The cafe has their own hot and cold drinks, bakery goods and to go wraps. The cupcakes at the party were dry and hard. So I didn't have good impression of their food. But I'll surely recommend the play area to others.

TNSC is a wonderful little museum and environmental education center located in the Watchung…read moreReservation, with many nature and outdoor programs and workshops for children & families as well as adults. It's a great place to take kids, and admission is free! The museum has exhibits, hands-on interactive displays, a cool night theater show, and a children's discovery/play room. You could also observe many beautiful and exotic bird species fly to and fro around the bird feeders out back through a large window. Upstairs are classrooms and a small library area. There are many hiking trails, including the Sensory Trail, a child-friendly 0.3 mile loop with special sensory exploratory features such as talking kiosks, musical play, and garden structures. There is also a playground and picnic areas in the vicinity. In addition, if you care to explore other parts of this 2,000+ acre reservation, drive or hike to nearby Watchung Stable to see the horses and riders; and for sure visit the Deserted Village of Feltville, a can't-miss area of Watchung with historic buildings dating back to the 18th century, and is a cool stroll.

They have a park nearby too which is walking distance. The center itself is cool, has a kids toy play area, a reading section and another section to learn of different animals - fake and real. Lots of parking in the area and when you're done, there is food nearby, about 15 minutes away. Definitely recommend if you are on a budget because family trips get expensive.

But, as one of the only fully fenced parks in the neighborhood, it has a fantastic setup to control the chaos that is the toddler phase. The park features a couple sets of swings, a few small areas with interactive pieces for smaller children, and a red merry-go-round that survived the 2023 park renovation. While I wouldn't recommend this park for older kids or those in the upper grades of elementary school, it's a perfect way to kill an afternoon with littler gremlins.

The place offers all basic play structures for kids right from ball pits, different slides, building blocks and easy to use obstacles all while keeping the entertainment and safety part non-negotiable. The entry fee is nominal (allows all day access and multiple entry for the same ticket for the same day which is cool) and the parking space is never a question of availability. Adults have seating space to watch the kids play from a safe distance.

While there is a pleasant children's area with a small merry-go-round, a toddler train, and a few other rides, the mall itself has lost some key anchor stores and restaurants over the years. Playland is best suited for younger children, probably ages two to nine. It has two levels and a small dedicated play area specifically for toddlers. Adults can sit at small tables and chairs nearby, and they do allow you to bring in food, though the dining options in the mall are somewhat limited. On a rainy day, this can be a good place to spend a couple of hours. The current rate was $20 per child, with no charge for adults.

It's such an incredible place - with an almost overwhelming amount of Magnatiles lol - to activate children's creativity and imagination. The Magnatiles are helpfully sorted by color and shape in wooden bins. Kids can complete builds and challenges, and collect tokens to trade in for prizes. There were some pretty impressive structures in progress there. In addition to the main Magnatiles room, there is also a separate playroom with different activity stations and play/exploration areas, suited to younger kids. The recommended age range is 4-12, but my under-3 toddler had a great time as we play with Magnatiles at home and he loves them. He also spent some time in the playroom with the wooden train tracks and checking out various things to do. The admission charge for adults is slightly cheaper than the child pricing. A couple of parents - way more skilled and inventive than I - were building some pretty grand castles and towers as they waited while their kids played. The space is bright and clean, and the staff are very nice. For parents who don't wish to be "in the trenches" with their kids, there is a small cafe area with chairs and tables where they can hang out.

The class is so fun and the songs so catchy. Each semester includes a new CD with songs from class and we listen to them at home all the time. I REALLY appreciate that they aren't your typical cliche kid songs, they are cool enough that I find myself humming them all the time. It has been wonderful to watch him gain love and appreciation for music and instruments. He went through a drumming phase and requested a guitar for his 3rd birthday. It was his only birthday request and is so proud of it. He sits us down for concerts and it's just the sweetest! I really can't thank Michael and his team enough.
