I arrived round 2pm on a Thursday with my sons. It was our first time here as we were visiting from…read moreout of state. It was $100 for the 3 of us for 75 mins of play. I reserved tickets online. We were about 10 mins due to getting on the wrong train. I called to let them know and change my time but was told as long as you arrived within 20 minutes of scheduled time, you're good to go. Honesty, it was a fun time. We got hot and tired fast, especially with some of the games. They have free lockers to put Some of the games are very active with running around. Comfortable shoes and clothes you can move around in, is a must! I like how each of the rooms have several games to choose from, some are collaborate and some are competitive. 75 minutes was not enough time. This is something a family could do for 2 hours or so as time flies quickly. A feature I like is that is no one is waiting to go in the room you're in, you can continue playing. This is great as you can "level up" in games. Staff we encountered were friendly and helpful! I wish there was a place like this where I live, in NC.

Every room offered something different, and I…read moreloved that there were multiple levels and game options that made it enjoyable for a wide range of ages and skill levels. Our group ranged from 8 to 28 years old and everyone had a great time staying active, laughing, and challenging ourselves. It's definitely one of those places where you don't even realize how much of a workout you're getting because you're having so much fun. The only thing I wish was a bit better is the cooling situation outside of the room! After working up a sweat, some extra AC or fans would have been really nice for a quick cooldown. That said, it didn't take away from the overall experience. We had an amazing time and will absolutely be back for more!

The playground is very cool with lots of things to do for various age ranges. It's nice that there's only one area the kids can get in and out of the play area so it's easy to keep track ok them. It can get a little expensive with a few kids, but as long as you're there for a while it's worth it!

This is a great interactive playground next to the visiting center in Forest Park. (This is no…read more"Turtle Playground". That photo opportunity is South of Forest Park & 64/40 on Oakland Ave just East of Tamm Ave) AstroTurf type surface on a shock absorbing padding covers the playground, but not the "Secret Garden" or ramps. There is a toddler area, area for "big kids" & a "secret garden" though some bushes. While overall well designed... I do not like the many entry/exits & blind spots. The best area to keep track of the big kids maybe on the top of the ramp outside the wall. With mix toddler & "big kid"... follow UnCool Dave rules & tell the "big kids" they must stay on or over the AstroTurf area.

The shade is minimal so the kids do work up some heat - beware there is no water fountain so come prepared or go in to the visitor center, they have a small cafe where you can buy refreshments. There was parking right out front of the visitor center and the park was not not crowded on a Sunday afternoon. My kids still vote Shaw Park as their most favorite place to play.

It's welcoming and cozy, well organized, and has plenty to do. Adult seating is provided around the room. A well-stocked art area allows for messy creativity.

It also includes a play store, a table filled with learning toys for little hands, and a section with an assortment of building blocks and materials. I'm a fan! We'll be back.

I really enjoyed this family visit to the aquarium. It's cute and interactive and great for kids…read more The aquarium itself is levels and the first thing you do is walk onto their "train" which takes you on a journey through history/StL time and is one of those interactive sit and watch the screens while it simulates movement-type of rides and my two-year old was thrilled and fascinated. A little cheesy, but cute. Lots of big and well-lit, clean aquariums for my little girl to get up close and personal and look and learn. I loved the Doctor fish area where you can basically get a fish manicure - I've never done anything like that before and it was sooooo cool! The second floor is more interactive with the touching stations for jellyfish, feed and pet the stingrays and more. I loved the small toddler play area for my daughter and the interactive water station. They also have different pets and shows at different times all day long where you can learn about all sorts of things - while we were there it was a leopard gecko which was so cute! It's not very big - but, they make good use of the space they have and it's located in the beautiful Union Station area with dining and other things to do nearby with plenty of paid parking. There is the St Louis Farris Wheel, a soda fountain, and carousel as well as a train. You can buy a pass for the adventure ropes course up above and the selfie museum as a package to save some money. We didn't this time, but I do want to come back to the selfie museum in the future - it's only $10 per person and looks cute and fun.
