    Toddler area
    Tristin L.

    Very clean beautifully decorated facility. Staff was friendly. I loved that they had handwashing stations in the play area, and also had a bathroom in the toddler play area. Cozy couches for parents to sit on and corner safe play areas. Would recommend this place any day!

    Spiral zebra slide

    Came here with my 2 year old toddler (25 months) and he had so much fun here. The place is huge,the climbing structure is huge as well. He spent 2 hours running and climbing everywhere. He did need help climbing up certain spots as they were too tall for him but adults can go on the structure too so we were there to help him go up. The slides are fun for both adults and kids. There were 4 different slides to go down and they were all fun in their own way. (Wavy slides, straight tall slide, straight short slide, and spiral slide). My son went down all of them surprisingly and loved it. Couple of times he did disorient himself inside the straight slide and came out of the slide head first even though he went in sitting normally, but he wasn't badly injured or anything like that. He still had fun and went back on it again. Besides the huge structure, they also had a separate smaller structure for smaller toddlers. My 2 year old was in there a couple times but he preferred the big structure. There's also a separate room for arcade games but you do have to pay separately for those. There's also a seating area outside of the play area for you to sit and eat if you'd like. They sell some snacks, ice cream and drinks. There were also some toys for sale. We went on a weekday early rainy afternoon (1pm) and it wasn't that busy which was nice. I'd recommend coming here with your little ones especially on a rainy day!

    We had a party here for our little one on her 5th birthday with her entire pre-K class. The set up is great because we booked our party for 2.5 hour so we had the entire place for your party. The wife did the reservation but I think that it is standard to book one party at a time for a certain time interval (the price varies according to how long you stay). Everything is well organized and runs according to a schedule. There are 3 main rooms. The kids first play in a big play room where kids can run and climb and play for about an hour. The next step is a second smaller room for eating which is allocated about 30 minutes. They offer pizza for sale (arranged in advance) and you can bring your own veggie tray or whatever and cake. You can pre-order water and soda. They provide paper plates and people to cut everything and pass out the plates. The third stage and third room is an arcade room which is allocated about an hour for doing arcades and then cashing in tickets for trinkets. There are probably a dozen or so arcade games so there is choice and the kids really liked it. A number of parents commented how nice it is to have the whole place to yourself and how well everything is organized. The staff takes care of everything efficiently and competently. We had no problems whatsoever. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. It was an excellent experience all the way around and everyone had fun. Safari Run is an fantastic place for birthday parties and I highly recommend it.

    Food room setup. Picture doesn't do the space in here justice though!

    Can't say enough good things about this place! We planned our daughters 3rd birthday since she loves animals, so naturally the theme was perfect! The planning process was a breeze and they communicate very quickly via email and phone. The day of the event, we were running a little behind but they graciously allowed our guests to get started with play time! When we arrived the place was spotless clean even though it was a middle of the day party time! Having the whole place to yourself (per our package type) was awesome, and all of the parents loved it! We were pleasantly surprised at how organized the flow went and engaged the staff was with us throughout without being overbearing! They setup our food room perfectly with the small decor additions I brought and our food was ready to go. They assisted with rounding up the kiddos, hand washing, and transitioning between activities/rooms. Unlike a lot of other facilities, the food room is very spacious which was so nice! The kids had a ball in the game room at the end even though it was a little small, it's still very fun for your whole party! The price of a private party isn't the cheapest, but I would def say for what you get it's a great value!!! We are def booking here again for our next kiddos birthday:)

    Smaller playground for the young ones
    Ellie H.

    My 16 month old had a blast here. $15 to play until he's ready to go. He's completely OBSESSED with balls, so the fact that they had a wall of many balls sent him over the moon! They have a separate playground for littler ones which is a plus. Came on a Monday morning & parking lot was empty.

    Seamless, clean, fun and perfect!! With 3 children I have celebrated a combined 34 birthday celebrations for my children over the years. And nothing, NOTHING compare to the service and setting of our recent Safari Run birthday party for my 4 year old. Facilities were spotless and I did not have to lift a finger. Amazing!! And the kids had a blast! 11/10 highly recommend.

It does get quite busy on the weekends. As you enter, you receive two coins - customize a crayon or get playdoh from the vending machine in the middle of the facility. The crayons make a cute gift for all ages. I made one for my husband and a friend and they absolutely love it. The activities we have today is nothing compared to how we grew up! The staff were patient, kind, and helpful. Thank you for making the experience great! One of the things I didn't like were the playgrounds. I went with a four year old so naturally we went on the playground suitable for her age. I saw bigger children on this one and children not supervised by their parents. I didn't like how it was monitored.

    Yelp 100 Challenge - # 28…read more Located in the Shops of Willow Bend, the Crayola experience is a nice indoor area for a kid that enjoys coloring. This location offers single day tickets or annual passes. In my opinion, if you purchase the annual passes. It is equivalent to purchasing two single visit tickets. With each visit you receive two coins to be used throughout and a clear bar to hold all or your items. You can create a ring or race car crayon. You can create melted crayon splatter art. There is a coloring station, chalk area, watercolor painting, and a small indoor play area. It is a nice indoor area to take kiddos to beat the outdoor elements and still have fun. Snacks for purchase with surprise crayon visits for photos.

The good is that it was a blast getting to create something so individually unique with a fun group while discussing out favorite hobby.

There are a lot of colors, tools, and other items that you can use to make your piece truly your own. The not so good was the customer service. I don't know if it was because we were a large group, but the individual that was initially set to assist us with explanations and gathering our paint seemed to be put out and not happy to help. She wasn't really available to us as we had questions come up as we started painting our pieces. It wasn't until later where another individual seemed to take over that the mood shifted. She was very attentive and helpful. She came and checked up on us a few times. I regret not getting her name but she was exceptional. She was the saving grace for the experience. Overall, a fun experience that I can see myself doing again with friends for a girls night, and something to do on date night with my husband. I'm still waiting for my piece to be completed so I'm excited to see it when it's ready.

I seen an ad on instagram and booked the session for $67, after the booking was confirmed, I was given the option to upgrade the free 8x10 to a 16x20 for an additional $97, so i did it. The promotion also gave a $100 credit towards photos. Prior to the photoshoot i received several emails on buying credits to get an additional discount. I declined this. The emails gave VERY CLEAR policies on rescheduling stipulations, which say 7 DAYS or forfeiture of deposit. I took the time to read through everything so there were no issues. In the emails there are videos of the owner discussing pricing starting points, she tells stories so it can be easy to miss if you do not watch her entire video. So I was well aware of how much it was going to cost. The studio was gorgeous and Susan was so sweet and good with my daughter. We got into our changing room quickly. The dress had very little dirt on the inside, but nothing serious. They sprayed her with fairy dust and we headed to the private photograpy room. They do not allow photos with personal phones inside the studio where the pictures are taken, which was OK with me. After the left the room, we took plenty of photos with the props they had. Our session was on a Friday and they scheduled the premiere for the following Wednesday. Jordan E was very nice. We talked for about an hour. He did inform me that this will be the ONLY chance to view and purchase photos. There was no pressure and helped me choose the photos I liked. They offer affirm financing which I declined. The smallest picture package they had was 7 photos for $2500 with other free gifts. I decided to use the $100 credit to buy an additional 8x10 (which is $200). So I received a 16x20 and a 8x10 for a total cost of $264 plus tax. Yes they are expensive for the digitals and the single portraits but in my opinion it was a super fun day for my daughter because she loves dressing up and she felt beautiful. So, I don't know if I will ever buy the larger package but what I paid was totally worth it for me. The turn around time on the photos say 6-8 weeks which is a bit long because most photographers have told me 3-4 weeks, but I honestly dont think it will take that long for 2 portraits. Overall, I liked the experience a lot, it went smoothly and we will be doing it again with the mermaid theme.

You tell the nice lady behind the counter your name and kids name and they give you a sticker. If it's your first time you simply fill out a form and then get the same sticker.

The sweet spot for this playground is probably 3-6 years, but there is plenty to do for the younger ages too. The max age for entry is 10. There are slides, climbing areas, and a rubber-bottomed hill for the kids to run up and roll down. Despite being fully closed in, the play area is bright and doesn't feel cramped at all (in comparison to Irving Bible Church's THE TUBES). Everything was exceptionally clean. The playground is open M-F from 10a-4p. It is free and open to the public, but you must check in at the desk in front of the play area before entering. No food or drinks in the play area and children MUST wear shoes. This was a bit of a drive for us, so I packed a lunch and after the kids had their fill of the playground, we headed over to the indoor eating area on the opposite side of the church ("The Commons") to eat. Overall a great morning of free fun - THANK YOU Prestonwood Baptist Church!
