It's great to show up, get messy and then go home without having to prep and clean up. She is great with the babies and always has one more thing to add to the mix that gets them excited (bubbles, scarves, you name it!). The space is beautiful and clean, and we'll continue to visit as our baby gets older and can appreciate the other activities they have there too. Thank you Katie and team!

Had a great time here today with my daughter who is just under 2. I really liked the variety of…read moreactivities for the kids to choose from but yet the space was still clean and spread out enough that the kids weren't overwhelmed by things to do. My daughter loved the play kitchens and eventually warmed up to playing with some other kids after a while which was awesome to see considering she's not in daycare so places like this are really crucial for her social development! Would deff return

There was also a music class that morning and I asked if my son and I could check it out- we did and we loved it- wished we lived closer to sign him up for him but love they have special events throughout the year. I am a first time parent and jenny(the music teacher) was so helpful in showing me how to use music to bond with my son. After we went and played in their infant play area. We loved the baby bjorn and my son LOVES reading books and they had plenty- we had a fun filled day! Thanks Jam Time :)

Not just for kids, adventurous grown ups can appreciate what is offered her just as much, if not more. Lynn helped us organize everything and met with us for a planning meeting to make sure our adventure would be just what we wanted. She was extremely responsive and reachable by phone and email. The lighting and sets exceeded our expectations and the monsters were fantastic! It was a thrill to go into battle and actually have opponents that attack and strike you. There is nothing else like this place ! The experience is very customizable and if you aren't quite sure what you are looking for the staff is experienced at building stories and running events. In my opinion this is THE option for a unique birthday party/ group event

IT wasnt cheap- but they offer that kids can go to more then one class a week under the same rate. I recenlty called them to ask a question- their receptionist didnt put me on hold-I heard her entire conversation., along with the owners voice (that I recognized) saying'just make something up- its a parent- yu never want to get in coversations with them;.Then got 'Lisa' on the phone so sounded so sicky sweet and condescending I wanted to whack her through the phone.

I have a 4 year old and 2 year old twins (BOGO for twins :P) and it was age appropriate. As the first few families there, there was plenty of space for our children to play. There are two playscapes, 2 specialty rooms and a kitchen/grocery play area. As it got busier, they opened an art room with markers and crayons that were a hit. We spent about 90 minutes there and it was the out of the house fun we needed on a chilly March day.

I have been to Clay Dreams multiple times for team events and every time the staff goes above and beyond to be friendly, respectful, and supportive of us!

Great experience, looking forward to our next visit!…read more We've been coming here as a family since our daughter was little. We haven't been in years since life got busy, but my daughter went again last week with her friend and painted an adorable light switch plate! She came in with a vision of paint splattered in quirky colors, and the staff didn't hesitate to get the supplies she would need. They showed her how to splatter paint with a toothbrush to get this fun Jackson Pollock kind of punk style. She was nervous, but everyone was super helpful and reassuring the whole time! She's really happy with how her painting came out, she did a great job! I'm really glad this place is still here, and thriving after all these years. The layout is different, and there's friendly new faces working there, but it's the same hidden gem it was when we first visited! It was a great location for birthday parties and play-dates back in the day, and now that our girl's going off to college, the wife and I might treat ourselves to a Paint and Sip night or two!

They took my daughter every step of the way to guide her with making a wedding dress. She had weekly remote classes with Rebecca and Christina for several months. I cannot say enough about their professionalism, knowledge, reliability, and flexibility. They even jumped on a zoom call at 8:30pm to help my daughter with a step that she had questions about. Towards the end, they prepared a weekly outline to be sure the dress was completed in time. I highly recommend this business and will surely use them again if my daughter needs more lessons!

On that day, I decided to go to the shop to see what yarns were on sale. Very quickly, I found two kinds of yarn I wanted to buy.While the owner was trying to sell on line, I said that I wanted to pay for the yarn. She became angry that I was bothering her during the on-line sale. She did take the payment for the yarn, but what she didn't know was that she'd just lost one of the regular customers. I never went back and do not intend to. With that business sense, I don't even know if she's still there. I wouldn't be surprised if she hadn't survived.
