It's huge, multiple levels. There are at least three slides coming out from it. Lots of places for kids to climb and scurry and jump. But that part was too big for my kiddo so we went to the smaller section a few steps away. There was a structure to climb, several slides, some bars, and then even a little further away a bunch of swings. I tried to keep her from seeing the swings, to be honest, since I didn't want to have to deal with an upset kiddo when we had to leave without enough swing time. She played around a bit but didn't seem as interested in the playground. We went down a slide or two, but some of them had standing water since it has been a bit rainy recently. The playground isn't technically fenced in, but it is effectively so because it's behind the practice courts which are all fenced in. It'd be hard for your kid to get away from you. There's a parking lot for the Norridge Park District building but the neighborhood parking could be tricky, especially in the summer because there is restricted parking from Memorial Day to Labor Day (ostensibly because of the large pool structure that would keep the residents from having any parking for three months otherwise). The terrain of the park is wood chips and soil, decidedly not my favorite (maybe especially after a rain) and she got dirty pretty quick. I may bring her back when she's old enough to play on the rocket ship, but this won't be a park that we return to much if ever.

We had this performer for our Synagogues Channuka fair this year. The kids loved it and I highly…read morerecommend them. The show was a little over 30 minutes and with the age group being between 2-6, the ability of the kids to participate was fantastic. The performer actively tried to give all the kids opportunity to be a volunteer. The flaming bubbles gave the handful of older kids something exciting to volunteer for. One tip I would give as the event organizer: the performer needs some space for the show and the kids need to be shown to not go in that space. Next year I'd put colored tape down around the performance area and tell kids to stay on their side

She claims she didn't see my deposit and never opened my email with my event info. What business owner or regular person at that do not see money deposited in their account especially when it is sent through Zelle?! Zelle sends several notifications when money comes your way and i even put my event date and name in the subject line of the deposit! I had receipts and email screen shots i sent to her confirming everything but she never booked me and ended up booking other parties that day so i was out of a bubble show for my daughters birthday! I built a whole party around it and she RUINED my event. She is terrible with communication and i warn anyone who books her. Don't be fooled by the other 5 star reviews.....especially since none of them are even recent! I have heard similar horror stories from others who have tired booking her but they have not been brave enough to take it to yelp or google but don't worry i will! PROCEED WITH CAUTION or better yet, there is another BUBBLE GUY in the area that is amazing...book him. ANASTASIIA IS HORRIBLE!!!

We were first inside the day we went, so everything was neat and clean. The only reason I docked a star is because online it says they only allow in kids who have registered ahead. We called all day and no answer! My friend wrote to them on IG and they said just show up. They open at 9:00am, I called when we got there at 9:30 (per instructions on the door) and the lady said she would be there at 9:45 so give her a couple of minutes. I imagine due to covid they're short staffed / don't have as many kiddos going in, so it didn't deter us much, but just something to note. We would still happily return! A great rainy morning activity!

Everything seemed old and small i don't understand the hype?…read more I was a guest at a party and it was hard to watch the management continue to scold the parents and the kids. My mother approached the play area with shoes but did not enter and was scolded... She was not planning to enter. After watching the way the management treated their clientele, i would not recommend. I think what this owner needs to recognize is stomping around in stilettos like Miss Hannigan from Annie isn't an appropriate way to conduct business with children or an adult who chose your venue to host their child's party. There are companies that will bring play areas to your yard. Check instagram. I had a party for my child at a gym where we had a company drop of a beautiful play area same rate way more hours of play.

It's a great place for parents to hang out with the their children while enjoying some relaxation…read moreon their own. I believe I have a contradictory statement on the last paragraph, that is, "how can relaxation and kids-monitoring happen simultaneously?" "Sunny Village Cafe" is the answer because the children can play while the parents sip on coffee. The space is designed perfectly that guardians can keep an eye on their little ones. Of course, the circumstances can depend. My partner and I checked out here on a quiet Tuesday afternoon. We were the only patrons for an extended of time. My older one enjoyed the slide, while my little one followed his afternoon-nap route and fell asleep after playing a few things. The admission fee was $15/child and waiver for each child would need to be completed. I thought this was reasonable because we really had the venue all to ourselves for a couple of hours. Coffee, non-caffeinated beverages, and cafe-style pastries were available for purchase. The place was clean and cozy. I looked up their website and learned that membership was available. We already had other memberships that would keep us busy. Therefore, at this time we didn't see the need. I hope "Sunny Village Cafe" can last like the sun that never sets! We live in the neighborhood and would love to come here from time to time.

I've been looking forward to the opening of Sunny Village Cafe for at least eight months or so…read more They've had some challenges on the way to opening but they're finally here! I don't work on my birthday, so since I had the day off I took my toddler here in the morning. The concept of the cafe came from the owner's visit to family in Korea, where these play cafes are common. There are about five tables along the west wall and then the rest is for children's play! There are toys as well as structures, such as a little CTA rail car. There's a little play house. Various toys can be found throughout the play area. There are "yuck boxes", where you can place toys that children have put in their mouth so the staff can clean them. There's hand sanitizer in a few areas as well. There's a couple chairs and couches in the play area as well, adult-sized ones. There is also an infant section for children up to age 24 months. That section is smaller and has a couple of baby bjorns for the littlest friends. Near that area is a quiet room. I didn't get anything to eat or drink whilst here but I'm curious to try one of their -ades. They have some pastries and stuff from nearby restaurants, including Delightful Pastries across the street, I think. I'm not sure how I would have managed them both since the tables ended up getting all taken; I wasn't able to stake one out since I was following my little one around. Maybe I could have kept it with me in the play area and just held it but I wasn't sure if that was allowed. I also wasn't sure if I could order something from inside the play space or if I needed to go out to get one. The play area is enclosed so for the most part you don't have to worry about kids getting out, although there's a bit of a gap along the side and bottom of the swinging door to the cafe/play space. No shoes are allowed once you enter that door, so you'll leave them in the space outside the enclosed play space/cafe. I'd highly recommend going to the website and completing the waiver before you arrive, as that just makes it easier and gets you in to play more quickly. You must complete a waiver for both parent and child, separately, which I thought was the case but then whilst reading through it I was unsure. The cost to enter is $14, unless you have a membership or have pre-paid for a particular number of visits. They also offer private rentals for parties and stuff. I think my little one enjoyed it, and I think we'll return so she play around. Parking is relatively limited since it's in a small strip mall. But there is parking along the street around here too.

I like that the event space is private so my guest felt more comfortable attending during the pandemic. The owners of the space were kind and attentive. Damian responded quickly to any emails I sent. There was a attendant on sight. She was able to see what was going on in the space because there are cameras in the space. It was really warm the day we had our event, the attendant was kind enough to bring us an extra fan for my father in law who got light headed. She also lowered the AC temp to cool the space even more. It was 95 degrees outside this day. Clean up was included in the package. The space is nicely decorated. You can bring your own decorations and food. They ask that you do not hang anything on the walls. There is also a fridge in the space to keep things cool. I really recommend Tots Land. My daughter is still talking about her Minnie Mouse party.
