Yelp post on Fun City!…read more Absolute Perfection for a Large Group Celebration! My husband Dave and I highly recommend Fun City Trampoline Park in New Britain! To celebrate the incredible reading and writing progress of our students, the Lauren E. Avezzie Charitable Foundation treated 22 enthusiastic Grade 2-5 superstars from our Room 102B FaceTime Reading Class to a high-energy hour of pure joy right in their hometown. These bright kids did it all! They flew high on the trampolines, tackled the ninja obstacle course, challenged each other on the Slam Ball court, and tested their balance on the beams over the soft foam pits. They also conquered the zip lines, tire swings, ropes course, and climbing rock walls, ending the session with a spin through the arcades and massive slides. ‍ Because "it takes a village," we were absolutely thrilled to see so many Lincoln Elementary School parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles show up to cheer on our readers. Watching the families, our two dedicated teachers, and our wonderful school principal, Gina Cavallo, cheering the kids on from the sidelines and in the party room was truly heartwarming. It beautifully reminded me of this quote: "Children need the freedom and time to play. Play is not a luxury. Play is a necessity." -- Eleanor Brown A massive "hats off" to the Fun City manager, Victor, and his phenomenal staff! They truly went the extra mile to ensure that our students were safely enjoying the trampolines and that their pizza party and award ceremony ran seamlessly. Fun City generously provided delicious pepperoni and cheese pizzas, water bottles, ice cream, and a $5 arcade gift card for every single student. Thank you, Fun City, for partnering with us to make learning--and celebrating success--so incredibly meaningful! We will definitely be back.

This place is a super nice and insanely busy trampoline park. I've been to every park in southern…read moreConnecticut and this is by far the most extravagant. There are tons of different options for kids of all ages. There are slides and rides and insane stunts. Bathrooms are clean with a lot of soap and paper towels. Pricing is good considering some of the places I've been to.

Came here to buy some beads! I wasn't sure if I was in the right place at first because I didn't…read morethink that the bead portion of the store was incredibly well marked, but I double checked my Yelp and then I decided to go in anyway. The bead store/section is to the right of the entrance and is its own area with its own registers. I found the coolest glass sea beads. I don't know if they were Miyuki or another type but I'm obsessed with the way they reflect the light. They were not that much more expensive if the same price as Michael's and I loved the on sale/clearance section too. I picked up 15 strands for two dollars each and they are this really unusual fern shape. I bought extra just in case. they said they would not be getting them back in stock. I came planning to spend like 15 to 20 minutes here and I ended up spending almost 2 hours. There is an ample selection, not a ton of jewelry making supplies mostly just beads, but I can get that stuff elsewhere. I will definitely be back. They have fair pricing, helpful staff, and a very fair return policy. Thank you!

Plenty of parking outside with handicap parking available. We arrived on a Sunday morning around…read more11am for a birthday party. We completed the waiver when we arrived. Only complaint with this is that it saved some of the information on the screen. I would definitely recommend to click to not save your information. We were able to go right to the party room where a host checked the kids in to ensure a waiver was completed. They were given socks and a wristband. The party allowed for 2 hours of fun! The host and people there were attentive. This isn't a babysitting facility so obviously keep track of your little ones. They had so many things to keep the kids preoccupied and the ability to get their energy out. They didn't want to leave! The only complaint that I have is for the arcade area. All games were 7 or 8 credits. Minimum card option is for 20 credits so there aren't enough credits for a minimum of 3 games. They should adjust the credit minimum to 21. Otherwise this place was awesome for the kids and we'll be coming back!

Had an absolutely amazing experience at Fun City with my daughter and friend. There is definitely…read morefun for all ages, so many fun activities to do. Pleasantly surprised at how massive the location is. We went right at opening on a weekday and had the place to ourselves which was great to not have to worry about anyone potentially bumping into my 2 year old. Absolutely loved the massive ball pits and different types of trampolines. Only downside for us was that the slides were a bit steep for younger kids so it didn't seem safe to use them. Great place to get together with friends old or young! Pricing isn't necessarily affordable to visit too often but definitely must try at least a couple times a year.

I had to watch my granddaughter for a few hours while my daughter had a medical appointment and…read morethis sounded good. We had traveled from Amherst, MA to see a specialist so instead of boring a 3 year old at a Dr.'s office, we came here. She had a fun time and her favorite was playing at the cash register. There were slides and play doh and a playhouse and enough to keep a 3 year old happy for a few hours. I know they are new so hopefully they will see more business; great on bad weather day or a hot day too.

I can't give it more. I wish I could and this place has really great potential but management needs…read morehelp. I went for a bday party. The room was fine. The set up was cool. It's typical set up. So what you'll get at other facilities, you'll get here. The facility is AMAZING!!! There is so many things to crawl through, run around, stairs and slides, basketball courts to have little games. Two personal size trampolines that's one jumper at a time. That can be an issue if they don't have a timer for it and the line gets long. I didn't see a long line because the kids would leave and play around the whole facility. They had a small gaming room that I did t check out but I can only assume it's like other arcade spots. Only a bit smaller section. They had this one area that you can be on the second floor and launch balls down to the ground floor with a bit of force to make it fun and give you the illusion that you have a powerful gun. You can throw those balls around and hit each other, they were soft. In the middle of that room there's an apparatus that blows air up and makes these balls float and come out of the top of a 4 foot tube. Again, it's cool for 2-7 year olds. Maybe even 8-9 Yr olds would have fun in this room. This place is really big. You can't keep an eye out on your child. That's how many tunnels they are and how fast the kids can come through there that you'll lose your eyes on them. If you're the parent that needs to keep an eye on your child 100% of the tiMe, get socks and join in on the fun with them cause from the ground you will not be able to do it. They have a toddler section. A small version that they can easily have fun there too. NOW.... As for the 3 stars... I couldn't give more but if they fix this one section or gap in their business this place can be a 4.5 to 5 star facility. The tops of the slides: DUSTY. Needs a cleaning. And WEEKLY too! NOT monthly. The staffing!! The staff was very very short. The line at the concession stand was too long and the wait was insane, especially for a place that was starting to get full. I went on a Saturday around 11am... that's PRIME! TIME!! That's when you would have a FULL STAFF! Two staff at the concession stand, two staff setting up the party rooms, two in the front, two roaming the play area. .... That's just for the weekend staffing. Weekday, knock it down to ONE or less in all the areas that I listed. But it gets better and this is the ending. As we were in the front. One of the staff that was there happen to have a relative that she hasn't seen in a long time. I know this by her reaction and by what she said and how her convo went. She said, "when did you get in motherfu&!3r?!" Loud and clear. My wife said that shortly after she said, "my bad for my language".... Umm too late sweet pea. Thank God my son didn't hear that. I would have been upset if I had to explain to him that's not a word you use. So that was our intro to this place. Not a good start. Would I return? Yes and I'll bring in my own snacks to avoid waiting 10 min for a bottle of water or drinks. And put ear muffs on my children. That's all folks.

Update: you now have to buy Billy Beez socks for every person playing. The socks are $2.95. I'm…read morehoping not to lose them.

Kidcity Children's Museum is a children's museum that opened in Middletown, Connecticut in…read moreSeptember 1998. It was founded by Jennifer Alexander. She originally founded Kidcity as a homegrown non-profit organization in 1994 in attempt to make Middletown a more desirable place for families with young children. The circa 1835 historic Camp-Sterns House was donated by St. Sebastian's Church after the building retired from a 70-year career as their convent. The City of Middletown donated a portion of a public parking lot as a new site for the house. In March 1997, the old house moved 400 feet down Washington Street. Extensive renovations were done to the house and permanent hands-on exhibits were created by local artist Ted Esselstyn. The museum opened to the public the following year. The museum doubled in size in 2003 when a new addition was put on. My family and I have visited Kidcity a number of times since my wife and I began having children. We've been to a lot of children's museums over the years, but we think that Kidcity is easily the best one in Connecticut. Not only do our two sons have a lot of fun, but also my wife and me! Our most recent visit was this past August. There are so many different rooms and exhibits for children to engage in pretend play. Some of the rooms include The Ship, The Farm, Main Street, Video Theater, Space Age Roadtrip, and The Cornfield. There's even the Toddler Sea Caves on the basement level that our younger son enjoyed exploring. We usually end up staying for at least two hours, but I'm sure that our two boys could be engaged there for much longer. If you're looking for a fun indoor activity for families with young children, then head to Kidcity!

Clean, great staff. What else do you need to know about a trampoline park? Lol…read more The trampolines don't have a weight limit like I have seen in other parks. They have a dodgeball area that the kids love and everyone is respectful in that arena. The kids love doing parkour tricks when there's no game going on.

Our Back Yard Play Place is more like a 3.5 than a 4 but I don't think worthy of a solid three…read morestars. This place is pretty big. Being on top of the bowling alley, this give kids and family extra time together (or separate if the kids go play by themselves while the parents bowl, which seems to be the case here). There are a great deal of inflatable bounce houses and one giant obstacle course, a ropes tower with a slide, rock wall, some arcade games, and a few birthday party rooms. For two kids to play for 1 1/2 hours was $24 total. Seemed like a pretty good deal considering there's no other place quite like this and it keeps the kids active and happy. It is dingy and there are quite a few broken arcade games that they just decide that they're never going to fix (I've been here a few times). You pay 25-50 cents per game or a dollar to play air hockey, basketball, or a motorcycle game. There are no tickets so you're really only playing to have fun, not win prizes. There is a coin machine (it's slow) to give you quarters for the games. During my most recent visit, the basketball machine broke on us so that was interesting. Other than the rinky dink "arcade" (which is kind of just scattered around the bounce houses), this is a fun place with plenty of room for the kids to run around.
