It is one of my 3 year olds favorite places in town. We went Saturday morning and spring mid morning is the perfect weather for calm. We pack lunch for the trip or long drive home.

We had never been for the Spring Fling and we checked it out this year, we will come back for it again! They had so many fantastic volunteers that were really great with the kids. They had different talks scheduled at each animal exhibit, we got to see the bears interacting with treat puzzles, that was super cool! We missed the mountain lions painting but heard it was really neat. The snakes also painted and they had their artwork for sale. The train was also up and running, we rode it several times! The coast room was also open and the kids got to feel the different sea animals they have.

I only give 4 stars due to our time on the go carts being cut short even though we were not with the kids. I get it though. Easier to just tell everyone times over than try to figure out who did what. Regarding the foo, we ate lunch here and the food was really good. I would recommend to come with families if looking for some fun. You do have to pay for each of the activities they have so try to figure it out so you can bundle the best way.

The facilities were very clean from top to bottom. The bathrooms were so clean. You didn't have to put back on your shoes to go use them. They literally kept those restroom spotless to go along with the rest of the facility. It was very well kept for a children's play area. From the time you walked in, you knew you were gonna have fun. They had an area just for kids under the age of three and then they had the bigger areas for kids. A little bit older very great place a lot of different activities to do multiple levels of fun things from slides to soccer fields to giant Legos go karts and much much more to just climb on and walk across. I even got to have a little fun. Highly recommend this place very nice place
