This place is a lot of fun! It's big but not huge, but has plenty of variety on the rooms. I do…read moreknock off one star for a couple reasons which I'll explain below. When you buy a pass, it's good for all day and you are allowed to leave and come back. Being located in a mall with a food court makes this incredibly awesome. Pause, walk to food, come back, amazing! Also makes coming with multiple family members great cause some can go shop while the others play. For the play areas, there is a smaller toddler area that's awesome. Small slights and things to climb on and this real cool bubble looking structure to climb into. It's big enough to keep them busy for a bit but eventually they'll want to go explore the "big kids" area. Next is an area with chairs to sit and eat snacks, parents to chill while their little play and there is an interactive floor that has a projector on it. You can step on graphics and they blow up. Pretty cool, kind of like a science center. Next is a big ball pit room! It has some crazy slides, TONS of ball, maybe a little deep for toddlers. There is a volcano like tower that normally would blast balls out the top but it's not very powerful and was barely working for us. The slides are pretty steep but very fun! While it's cool there are tons of balls, it's really deep for some of the kids to get out of the stairs part cause it's so deep. After that there is a room with cannons that launch balls at an interactive screen. This would have been the coolest part but the cannons don't shoot hard enough and often get clogged if someone sticks a big ball in it. Last is a slide where you have to get on an inter tube with a hard bottom. The worker sprays soapy water on the bottom and you go down suuuuper fast then immediately STOP! This is because the floor at the bottom is rubber and it stops you way too quick. I watch many kids get whip last from this. I get it, cause there isn't much room if you didn't stop but man it can be rough if you aren't expecting it. Other than that there are corridors with cool parkour type obstacles and things to jump on. Very fun! There are also snacks and waters to buy, the bathroom are in another room with plenty of space and they are family bathrooms. Also a good space that's away from the rest in case a kid is over stimulated. Great place! Great value since it's all day long! Way better priced than similar players in Louisville.

This is such a cool indoor play place for kids!! It's brightly decorated, just the right size for…read moretoddlers to big kids, and they allow older siblings to come into the play area as well. This comes in very handy when there is an age gap between kids and as the parent you don't want to go in the play area. My 4, 5 and 6 year old nieces loved playing on the slides into the ball pit and the climbing areas. My 12 year old daughter and friend felt just as at home as the little ones. The staff is very nice and accommodating, especially by opening up the colorful tube slide so my kids could enjoy it even though they were short staffed. I appreciated that very much. There is plenty of indoor seating for parents to keep an eye on the littles. As an extra perk they have the riding animals and the kids love going through the mall on them. For a full day of indoor play the price is not bad at all. My only suggestion is that they had free wifi so I could work on my computer. I never asked if they had it, I just assumed since I didn't see any signs up. Otherwise, I will gladly come again and again to this place.

A big thank you to Bounce'n Round for the care they showed my son when we were there for a recent…read morebirthday party. Due to my son's medication, he sometimes feels nauseous and gets sick. Unfortunately, this birthday party was one of those times. After he jumped for a bit, he needed to sit down, and my husband was able to bring over a large garbage can for him to get sick into. The staff did not wince or cringe when they swiftly disposed of the can. They stripped the nearby table he had been sitting at of its tablecloth, wiped down the table and chairs with disinfectant wipes and remade everything in just a few minutes. I thanked the owner, and he shrugged it off, saying he hopes my son feels better. My son's bout wasn't due to him having the flu or being infectious -- but it was comforting to see how well they take care of everything in case he had been. My son felt better after that, and my daughter and the rest of the kids had a blast. Bounce'n Round does birthday parties right, helping everyone keep to a schedule of fun that includes black lights, pizza, birthday cake, a group photo and bubble play. A definite party winner!

Tonight we attended a private birthday party. The staff had set up tables for eating, gifts and the…read morebirthday cake. When we arrived, they had us sign a waiver and the kids could immediately go play. After playing for a bit, the staffers used the overhead speaker to announce different activities. The kids got to have a glow in the dark dance party with glowing balls. Later they danced with foam and bubbles. And at the end of the party, they let balloons fall from the ceiling! To end the night, the staffers rolled out a cotton candy machine. The staff was kind, attentive, and beyond helpful. Throughout the entire party they were present for anything we would need. If you're looking for a well oiled machine for a kids birthday, this place is it!

I would love for this place to host my son's birthday party!

We returned today for the most recent installment of Rick Bell's lecture series with today's topic…read morefeaturing Jim Porter (1810-1859). This was a very interesting presentation to learn more local history. Sound system was okay, but sometimes less than ideal with the nearby playground activity which was expected. The nearby interstate traffic would sometimes cause the building to shake very noticeably, which was a bit disconcerting. Seating was okay. I did think it would be nice if the chair feet had either pads or covers installed to help reduce the very significant noise when they were moved across the concrete floor. Plentiful free parking beneath the interstate. Building, parking, and playground areas are all accessible. Playground equipment is VERY impressive and one of the nicest public playgrounds that I have ever seen. Quite a bit of the area has the recycled rubber matting surface, which is very squishy. Today's weather in early March is mid-60s and it was fantastic to see so many people utilizing the spaces.

Calling the PlayPort a "playground" does not do it justice…read more This is a 3.5-acre, kid-discovery, homage-to-repurposed-materials, get-ALL-the-wiggles-out, hands-on, interactive kiddo wonderland. We didn't know what to expect when we brought our son here during Spring Break, and ... yeah ... I think my eyes were about as big as his. This playground ... for lack of a better word ... includes large towers with impressive slides that kids and adults can safely climb and slide down from. It features repurposed construction and boat equipment that my son loved to climb into and play with. And it's clear that STEM learning is central to how this space was designed. For instance, in one section, kids can pull a rope to raise a large metal shipping container -- teaching them about how a pulley works -- and a tube that kids can climb through goes through the hollow shipping container. It's clear that whoever designed this attraction had fun doing it. There is also an event/meeting space. I bet some really great summer camps could take place here. PlayPort is part of the expansion of Waterfront Park, so it's also a good excuse to go down by the river and appreciate what the area has to offer. And it's in West Louisville. I love that the West End has access to a gem like this. PlayPort includes lots of picnic tables, so definitely make it a activity for the family. And there's lots of free parking on the street and in a lot. The PlayPort is a great, new must-visit for Louisville!

We decided to give this place a try since we'd never been here. It's really cute and has a bunch of…read morethemed areas that were great for ages 6 and under. My daughter didn't want to try any of the slides but she was all about the ball pit. She also is a huge fire truck fan so she loved playing in the fire truck section. I wish they had more drink/snack options. They have a very small fridge and then a vending machine. I ended up sending my partner out to grab us drinks/snacks since there wasn't anything we wanted and my child wasn't ready to stop playing. Keep in mind that this place does close for birthday parties so definitely call ahead to make sure they are available for open play!

My friends and I booked the Mega Quest and Mega Ziplines for the same day…read more It's a pretty crazy experience to just walk inside such a huge cave and see these obstacle ropes courses. There are lockers available on site to store valuables. It costs $1 for each instance and you need cash. There is a machine to turn $1 and $5 into quarters. We did the Mega Quest first, which was shockingly a huge workout. The employees were cheerful, helpful and explained everything clearly. We worked up a crazy sweat and rested in time for our Mega Ziplines tour. We got Keegyn and Bethany, who were absolutely amazing. We were in GREAT hands! I'm actually terrified of heights but I was very proud of myself for getting through each zip line and keeping my eyes open! The Mega Ziplines course does have options for people to leave if they are too scared/anxious, but there IS a point of no return eventually. This was one hell of a way to spend a day out in some caves. Highly recommend.

Great professional staff and safety is their #1 priority. Located right in the city, just a short drive to get there. This is the most open cavern I have ever been in and you almost feel like you are in a dark warehouse, it's so big! No "tight" spaces of any kind. Heights might be your issue if that is a concern. If you have any climbing, repelling, spelunking, or exploring experience, this is a "walk in the park" for you. No experience is needed and they take care of everything. All you have to do is zip when you're told. Have fun! Shoutout to Bethany M., an excellent staff member.

I first brought my twins here when they were just crawling and we loved the little gated area for…read morebabies-- there's a slide, lots of toys, and some space to crawl around. Now they're 18 months and run around the whole play cafe loving every bit of it. This place is so well thought out- lots of open ended toys, foam mats throughout the play area, extra mats throughout. It's big enough but small enough that you can easily watch your littles while you sit and drink/eat. The bathroom is roomy, has potty training seat, and extra diapers available in sizes 1-3. And the part that makes this place a unicorn, is the food and drinks! In most play cafes the focus is on the play area and the food/drinks are an afterthought. But the lattes and food are actually so good here! Everything tastes fresh and the lattes are perfect. You order ahead and the food/drinks get brought out to you. And best of all, this is a place you can drink your coffee while it's actually hot! 10/10 favorite play cafe!
