It included one clear slime, one fluffy, slime, one topping for each slime, add a scent to each slime and one choice of glitter and beads for one of the slimes. It also allows the kids to get a certificate of completion, play in their slime table and took a picture in front of the slime wall backdrop. The kids enjoyed it, and we're happy with their slime and their experience. The only downfall is that they did not open at the time that the website said it open. the website said they open at 10am and they really opened at 12:00pm. so we walked around the mall and thankfully we walked by it again and saw that it was them open. I would come back. I don't understand how people were saying that it was underwhelming. Slime making isn't some grand experience. So I believe it was on par for again like I said what it was marketed for.

This place is amazing!!…read more It's like a huge sensory room for kids at the mall. I was intrigued by the colors and all they had to offer. My 5 year old has autism and it's very rare you find a gem like this at any mall. I couldn't believe how cool this space was. Everything is at a price, small price and well worth it! They have 2 bouncy houses, one is for smaller kids and the other bouncy house is pretty large. They have inflatable pool ball-pits both for toddlers and younger babies. They have an inflatable pool with sand box and toys in it which is a huge plus for kids who sensory seek, like mine. There's tons of stuffed animals, little electronic animal rides and fun. They have so much to do including painting a canvas, face painting etc.... We weren't in there during a super busy day, in fact my son enjoyed his time there alone. Later on in the day there were more kids. The worker was so nice and super friendly. He made it an even more enjoyable experience. Once you pay, you can play and leave and come back any time during the day. I spent $14 and that included the bounce houses and unlimited electronic animal rides. My son cried when we left, he really loved it. There's plenty of lounging pillows for parents and a few places to sit. It's super cute and something to do for the little ones while mom or whoever shops around the mall. They have refreshments for sale including Honest juice for kids in a fridge, they do also have chips and candies for sale. I'll be coming back for sure because it's a nice little chill spot for the little ones. Some of my pictures are screenshots from a Live video I posted on the book. Please do yourself a favor and bring little ones here.

This Palisades Mall location is a good-sized store with plenty of bears, animals, and other characters to choose from. The fun here isn't just buying a stuffed animal...it's the whole experience. Kids get to pick their furry friend, help stuff it, add sounds, outfits, accessories, and leave with something that's uniquely theirs. Watching them go through the process is often half the fun. I've found this location to be well stocked with a good selection of options. While it can definitely get pricey once you start adding outfits and accessories, there are usually some animals on sale if you're looking to keep costs down. The staff has always been patient with the kids, which is important because choosing a new cuddly friend is serious business. Overall, it's a fun stop in the mall and a place that creates memories as much as it creates stuffed animals. Just don't forget your wallet!

My son's birthday is in December and we are always afraid the threat of snow will keep many people away, so I decided to have a non-birthday party for all of my son's friends and my friend's with kids. We had 70 people attend a party today with several great puppet shows, all performed by Marshall Katzman and "Fantasy Puppet Theater." My phone has not stop ringing, everyone is calling to tell me how much they and their children enjoyed today's event. I highly recommend both the recycling themed show and the Frog Prince. The kids loved them. He made it extra special for my son by getting all the kids to sing, "Happy Unbirthday to you!" If you are trying to think of something different for a party, try them.
