The infant and toddler station was particularly fun for our kiddo just due to seeing so many toys he may not be exposed to at home. We loved the art and toy sections as well; all of the space between everything lets our little one feel safe and not cramped. We will definitely be back and are so excited places like this exist for families of ASD kiddos - and of course for all kiddos as well. It is priceless for the experience you get with access to things that can make a decent day a wonderful day. Come try and see, we'll see you there!

The cafe area was cute and the drink was surprisingly good. My only complaint was that the workers didn't really go through every once in a while to put the toys in the basket and right areas. For instance if you wanted to play veterinarian you couldn't do it cause the stuffies were at the other side of the building. While I understand it's hard to keep items in their area with kids but it would have been nice to have at least tried

The staff was nice and helpful around while the party was going on, and the venue itself was clean and everything was nice and tidy (at least before the kids got into stuff, ha!). I would say on our observation that this would probably be more ideal for 5-10 based on the amount of amenities they offered for play based on the size and skill needed to do some of them (e.g. arcade games, skeeball basketball goals, air hockey). While some of the infant and toddlers area did have it gated in with a few things it felt less of an experience for 5 and under. That said, it was still perfect for a private event. We'll definitely be planning something here and try to come back and update the review once we see how it is in a typical day for the public to use the space.

We always come around Christmas time as well, so it's probably way more chill during the rest of the year. Inside, half of the store sells toys and books, and the other half is a playground for the kids. I wouldn't say the toy selection is incredible or anything, but my kids normally find something that they enjoy. Of course, they tend to be the $3 squishy toys and not the stuff that's supposed to expand your mind, but I'm not complaining :) The indoor playground isn't bad! My son had a good time playing in the mock kitchen and chatting with the other kids. We'll probably come back the next time we're visiting :)

Who in the world has all of the toy boxes after a 6 year old birthday party. The appropriate response would have been to offer store credit so we could have tried another item of the same type. The woman "helping" my husband was rude and we will definitely tell everyone we know to not waste time or money there. Typically, we love to support local business but the truth is that you can buy toys anywhere

The venue itself is awesome, with lots of open play spaces before you head in (semi-fenced for those eloping kiddos out there). Once inside the gated and fenced in area let's ASD parents like ourselves take a breath and enjoy the space a bit more. I loved seeing some of the themes of Knoxville and TN baked into everything - it was well kept and our little loved it a lot! Excited to come back in the future once it's open again officially. See you there!

They have a very visually appealing entrance for kids...bright colors, a free little library and a small playground with nice green spaces around. The inside has a variety of activities set up which seemed to be pretty standard for a children's museum and were ones we'd seen in other locations. My kids stayed entertained for over two hours and would have been happy to stay if we'd had the time. This is a great option for a rainy day activity. The only downside is we were hoping to grab lunch beforehand and there weren't a lot of options nearby that we were able to find. At $12 a ticket for adults and children aged 1 and up it's a reasonable price!

The entry is a combination snack/gift shop and reception. After paying we entered the play area and I wasn't sure what to think. All the areas flowed into each other and our granddaughter seemed overwhelmed. We began with the Healthy Choices map, then let her take the lead. She walked by everything until we got to the display showing how air circulates through your lungs. She loved doing this activity over, and over, and over again and suddenly became more interested in other areas. She ended up really enjoying MUSE and didn't want to leave. Don't let the small size fool you, there is a lot more there than you think. Unfortunately, due to the rain, we were unable to play on the outside playscape but that just means we need to go back next time they visit.
