Bathrooms are spic and span. The play area consists of an open gym area. Slides of different sizes. A tree house. Lots of bouncy balls. There are also Gymnastic mats of different sizes and shapes. A small rock climbing wall, fun murals and stuffed animals adorn the walls. A great place for little ones to burn some energy during winter months.

There were three young girls working the party and they were amazing! They interacted so well with the kids and made sure to accommodate all abilities. The activities were age appropriate and switched up long before anyones attention span ran out. The kids had a blast! They did all of the setup, all of the cleanup, and even passed out the food. I was actually able to enjoy the party myself. I highly recommend their birthday parties!!

Bushnell Park is located in the downtown area of Hartford, Connecticut. It features an historic…read morecarousel and numerous monuments such as the Corning Fountain. Bushnell Park is the site of many major events each year, including the Greater Hartford Festival of Jazz and the Hartford Marathon. My daughter and I came this week to Bushnell Park for Caribbean week and part two was at Bushnell Park. This was my second year here and the festival was good but in my opinion the other festival at Mortensen Riverfront Plaza is better, just because I love the riverfront. There were a lot activities for families and there was plenty of food trucks to choose from. Many of the lines were long but my daughter and I came across a tent called Cuisine and Pastry, which serves West Indian food, American food, and baked goods. As we thought the line was short, we still waited in line for about an hour. I believe the staff we're having problems with there debit card machine. I ordered the Stew Chicken, Cabbage, and Rice and Peas. My daughter and I took are first bite and we looked at each other and we both had a skeptical look. The cabbage totally lacked flavor and the chicken was dry. Stew Chicken is supposed to be like a stew with Caribbean seasoning and flavors. It lacked the stew part but the Rice and Peas were the best thing on the plate. My daughter stopped eating it after three bites. Two stars for BP Cuisine & Pastry. I actually looked them up on Google and it says there establishment is temporarily closed but on Yelp it doesn't indicate if there closed. I was confused. The event was great and they even had a live Caribbean show. My daughter and I had a great time and we look forward to going next year.

The food was delicious and quickly served. The place is huge with so many activities to do with your family & friends. You don't have to do everything all in one night but if you wanted to definitely can spend easily 5hrs doing everything lol I'd highly recommend going there for yourself and seeing the place yourself to experience greatness. We surly would love to come back again.

In addition, when I was in the ladies' room washing my hands, I observed an employee washing her hands very thoroughly. I commented how uplifting that was and how it built my confidence in the place, as it was my very first time here. Her name is Cindi, and I hope her bosses recognize her for this. It may seem like a small thing, but it's not. If someone pays attention to the "smaller things," they will pay attention to larger things.

The girls working in the back were more than happy to allow me to try some samples. I would definitely recommend a visit.

I think it's a nice spot to mini golf!

Trust your GPS, or look for the CVS, because you may have trouble finding the Ducks…read more Walk down the staircase, more or less next to the basement of CVS, and you will enter a very sweet fun zone full of nostalgia and old school entertainment that's been here since 1939. Welcome to Ducks On The Avenue - home of Duckpin Bowling. It's not the full sized bowling pins and bowling balls you're most probably used to. It's not the skinny candle pins you'll find in Massachusetts. This is Duckpin bowling with shorter stubbier pins, a holeless ball about the size of a medium grapefruit, and three balls per frame. This was really hard to play -I didn't crack 60 in either of the two games I bowled. But I was pretty good at tossing the ball into the left gutter. One of my industry organizations held a meeting and charity fund-raiser there last night and we had a blast! When's the last time you went bowling with a revolving disco ball, black lights, and music? Yeah, I thought so. Wanna drink while you are there to enhance your experience? Beers are available for $4 to $8. Since the balls don't have finger holes, you basically have to palm it and fling it. Our techniques varied from smoothly rolling the balls onto the alley as gently as one would place a sleeping infant in a crib, to those who lobbed the ball like a hand grenade trying to blow a hole in the floor halfway down the alley, to the young lady who preferred a two-handed underhand roll (like an old time basketball free throw shooter) who hysterically knocked down all ten pins with her unique technique. We had a ton of fun there! I want to give a shout-out to our host Patrick, who seemed to be running the place single handedly. He was awesome.

Excellent day! My group of 5 was paired with another…read moresimilarly sized group for a 2-hour zipline adventure. There were 5 or 6 lines ranging in length from about 50 feet to 700 feet. The 700 foot line is awesome. In between there is a high-ropes "intermission" when you can choose between some "broken bridges" or a net obstacle and tightripe. After that my group did a Tree Climb which is a physically demanding challenge to get up very high trees, swing from ropes, etc. Unlike the zipline which is just fun adrenaline, the tree climb requires some real exertion and I would not recommend it for those who are afraid of heights or who are not physically active on a regular basis. The guides for the adventure were all great. They were encouraging, made us feel safe, and made an effort to learn our names. It was a great experience all around and I would recommend this as an activity for anyone.

Make sure you come here with clothes and sneakers to wear in the woods if you partake in the entire experience. So first we did the ziplining and it was great - we zipped through about 6 lines of varying lengths and a couple of them had obstacles like a broken bridge or a tight-rope walk. Then we did the treeclimb. One entailed swinging from tree to tree until you got to the top, and the other one was to climb a very old, very large tree. The third thing we did was the scavenger hunt, which was great because we traveled through the entire premises to get clues to each station to accrue points and ultimately defeat our adversaries. lol The service and friendliness of the staff was top notch. They made us feel pretty comfortable and were having a good time along with us as well as guiding us through a fun, safe experience. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for adventure and a good time with a group of friends.
