They have learning toys, movement toys, problem solving toys, bouncy houses and bouncy obstacle course all my with so much more. Our kiddo is 10 months and was able to play and walk all around however stuck to the designated 3 and under tot area. Met with one of the owners Daniella who was so kind and gracious. It's in a strip mall area which means every easy and convenient parking. The $5 power hour was perfect for our little babe between nap and lunch time. For $5, the kid and 1 adult is admitted. You pay $3 for socks for the kid however none are needed for the adult and you only need to buy them once unless you lose them. Each additional adult is $5 which is more than reasonable for the amount of space and toys/activities they have! You can also utilize a lock that they provide to lock up your belongings. We will be visiting this awesome place at least once a week

This place was way bigger than I expected, and came with a TON of different areas for my kids to explore. They have an enclosed trampoline area that plays music, a foam block spot tucked away in the side for babies to crawl and explore, a pretend fruit/veggie mart, and play kitchen area, and princess house, ball pit, obstacle course, multiple slides, and so much more! Kids under 2 are 7.99 during the week and 9.99 during the weekend. You can play for 2 hours at a time, and you can buy snacks and drinks. 2 hours may seem like a long time, but my boys were having so much fun, it passed by in a flash! The facility is super clean. Don't forget to put on grippy socks!

The coolest Jumpoline Park ever (that's what they used to call them until your mom started going)…read more Kidding--sheesh tough crowd. Don't cancel me. The good: This is an EPIC trampoline park. Got a 3 hr sprint break deal with the kids. I had mediocre expectations having been to at least 5 similar parks. This one was the best. They have: multiple jumping areas, Ninja Areas, High Ropes courses, go karts, and video games, soccer, basketball, climbing walls and dodgeball (my arm still hurts from pelting overly confident kids dozens of times, a little kids town and 50+ recliners for the adults (genius). Imagine an abandoned corner store at a mall was taken over by a wave of zombie children running on sugar and dip n dots bouncing until total meltdown. The Bad: 1) The video games are an absolute ripoff--if they made the games 5 credits per game they would get more business. 12 credits for air hockey?! I refused to "reload" based on principle alone. 2) No water fountain?! Even prisoners get water.. Suggestions: A Water Fountain and add some laser tag! Do a $10 add on for Unlimited Lazer tag and you will cover the cost of water.

They have things for kids to play on, ride, educational areas, etc. They also have a concession area. Everything is always super clean, too. I feel like every year they add more and make it that much better! Always a high recommendation!

It also wasn't crowded at all, which made the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable instead of rushed. One of the best parts was the animal feeding experiences throughout the park.

The exhibits were thoughtfully done too. The animals seemed to have plenty of space while still allowing guests to get close enough to really enjoy and appreciate them. Every staff member we encountered was kind, helpful, and added to the positive experience. This place deserves way more attention. Such a fun, memorable day for our family!

Hear ye, hear ye! Gather 'round, good people of Grand Rapids!**…read more 'Tis I, your humble town crier, with news most dire from AJ's Family Fun Center, where the miniature golf course doth lie in a state of disrepair. On a fair Saturday afternoon, I did venture forth with my daughter and her beau, seeking merriment and sport upon the greens. Alas, what we found was naught but frustration and woe. The tee boxes, uneven and askew, did cause many a ball to veer off course from the very start. Though the greens were mostly fair, the holes themselves were in a sorry state, with broken or missing flags on all but two of the eighteen. The signs that should guide us were shattered, and the spinners that add challenge were but broken relics of their former selves. Twice did our balls become ensnared within the obstacles, and on the sixteenth hole, a dozen players before us did halt their play, for their balls were trapped and would not release until I, with great effort, did free them from their prison. Our complaints to the attendant were met with indifference, as though she were not paid enough to care for our plight. The arcade, a cacophony of noise, did drive us away from further games, and the cost of nine dollars for such a course seemed a grievous overcharge. Verily, I say unto thee, I shall not return to this place of discontent unless I hear tell of new management or grand improvements. Thus ends my tale of woe. Take heed, dear townsfolk, and spend thy coin wisely.

The carvings are pretty amazing- at first we were super impressed because some of the first ones we seen were fresh and clearly hand carved. As the event went on we realized more and more that many were fake and many were likely carved by lasers. Is it worth the stop? Yes! Just make sure to bundle up because it was a chilly one! Taking one star away for lack of clarity and direction on arrival. Also, some members of our group felt like the advertisement was slightly off because they emphasized hand carved pumpkins and it was clear most weren't done by hand.

There was a lot to see, and it was a very pretty experience, but it was pretty commercialized- fake pumpkins, supposedly hand carved but not homemade looking (which isn't a bad thing necessarily). It was a little confusing when we first got there- we couldn't find the entrance- but once inside, it was self explanatory. It was a little busy and we had to wait in line once inside for the first couple areas, but it got a little more spread out as we went. I think we spent about $22 each on tickets, which might be pricey for some, so something to keep in mind. Overall, it was a fun time, and if you have the money to spend, it's worth it!
