My wife saw a special Valentine's Day event happening on 2/14/26, at Space to Play, located on Elk Grove Florin Road in Elk Grove, CA. We took our toddler daughter for the event and later to play. My daughter had fun dressing up, decorating cookie before eating it, small painting on her hand (we were afraid she would smear face painting in her eyes), painting in the art space, and much more. She got so tired of playing, she fell asleep. Thank you, Space to Play, we will be returning! read more

We stopped by on Saturday for Open Play and Mirarose played for 2 full hours! Our 1 year old's favorites: sensory play on their round gel floor tiles and playing inside their colorful cube pit! Their were a lot of social butterflies here, but our tot was a bit nervous to interact. Open play is catered to ages 0-6, but older siblings may enjoy playing dress up on their stage and their art studio! We also took home a book from their free little library our 8 year old has been reading and plan to replenish their stock our next visit! Open Play is $17 with 1 adult included, $5 for infants, grip socks are required! No play limit! They sell plenty of snacks and drinks, even Girl Scouts cookies and offer free coffee! And yes they host parties! This indoor playground and children's art studio opened just last year! Staff members were very friendly and helpful and everything was clean and well maintained! SYOY! :D *Song Credit: Gingerbread Happy Time by EnjoyMusic Site: https://enjoymusic.ai read more

We've been going here for over a year now, we had our birthday party here and recommend to anyone looking for a living room/cozy feeling You can spend all day here I come and work while my kids play and I love the vibes and they have a nice coffee bar that's free and a really cool art space!!! I love it it's like an extension of my house that I do not have to clean lol read more

This place is such a find!!! Love that it's local and clean and set up so well. Theres an art room to get messy in, 2 other rooms to explore and even has a quiet room for kids who are over stimulated by everything. We went for our nieces bday and our daughter had so much fun. We will definitely be back! read more

We brought our granddaughter here for a play day. We have tried Enchanted with our grandson, who is older, and he enjoyed the larger venue. Space To Play is perfect for younger children. There are plenty of areas for them to explore. She enjoys climbing and the structures are just the right size for smaller children. There is a craft area as well. We went midday on a Thursday and there weren't a lot of children, so she had plenty of room to roam. read more

We had such a great time at this indoor play area! They've really thought of everything to make it fun for the kids and relaxing for the parents. There's a separate painting area where little artists can get creative without worrying about the mess. A huge win in my book! I also really appreciated that there's a special zone just for the newly walking toddlers, so they can explore safely without getting accidentally trampled by the bigger kids racing around. Parents aren't forgotten either! There are plenty of tables where you can sit and enjoy the free coffee (yes, FREE!) or feed your kiddo some snacks when they need a break. It's nice not to feel like you're just pacing around the whole time. Another highlight was the costume corner where kids can play dress up -- such a cute touch and it kept them entertained for ages. And of course, the big slide was the ultimate favorite, the kids must have gone down it a hundred times and still weren't ready to leave! Overall, it's the perfect mix of safe, fun, and parent-friendly. We'll definitely be back! read more

I've come here with my kids about 3 times because I wanted to be sure of my experience before making this review. Each time I entered, I had met two workers, and one was I believe the owner who was absolutely the sweetest person. The other worker who sat it in the front and checked us in on the other days was not welcoming at all and had an attitude. Not a person that should be greeting families or children for that matter. She was not approachable and looked like she didn't want to even be there. Now for my main issue, this place is not at all CLEAN. While the owner was there she did organize and put things back where they go, the did not sanitize one single thing while I was there each time I went. NOT. ONE. SINGLE. THING. I was shocked at this my first time I went there. We spent about 2 hours and 30 mins there and nobody cleaned or wiped one thing down. This happened all three times I was there, and for a place advertised toward children it's honestly sad. While we do sign a waiver that includes it's not their fault if our kids get ill, I find it sad that they can't take time to clean up their hot hub areas and toys. When I last went there it was filthy towards the end of the night and they only started to clean since it was closing time. There is a tiny "yuck bucket" for dirty toys but come on. Why pay someone to sit behind a counter for hours when they could be making a difference and wiping germs away so people can feel more at ease. Unfortunately my child got hand foot and mouth disease from this place and we will not be returning. I am also posting this as a beware to other families of young children that while the concept is amazing, not providing upkeep and just a clean space to play is putting our kids in danger. And for the high price it is to come in, I don't recommend you do. read more

My family enjoyed ourselves immensely here. Probably more catered to younger children. My six year old had some much fun here though I would say he's easily amused and can play for hours on his own. Really nice and welcoming environment. Snacks are a bit on the expensive side but happy to support a small business. Lots of fun and easy place to watch your kid have fun and be creative. read more

Cute new indoor play center in old Elk Grove! They just opened up this week so we came to check it out, since it was raining outside today. They open at 8am everyday, which is awesome! A lot of kids places don't open until later in the morning but if you're a parent, you know that they're ready to get that energy out first thing in the morning! When we walked in, the lady explained everything to us thoroughly. They have complimentary tea and coffee available for the parents, and even free amenities like wipes and diapers, and phone chargers to use! There are a few tables near the drink area, and a couple of tables and couch in the main play area. If your kid is more independent it's definitely doable to bring your work while they play! Lots of fun play areas and things to do, despite it being a smaller size play center! I thought it was fairly priced for the size of the place. It was $12 for 2 hours and $10 for a sibling. Two hours was plenty of time here. They have a fun glow in the dark room with lights and a slide and a calm Animal Planet type show. They should probably screen the shows though because I walked in at one point and it was showing baby cubs eating a dead zebra... It's a cool concept in the room but not a ton to do, plus it's super dark. The colors and decor are all done really well! And it feels very clean and open, which it should since it's brand new! It'll be interesting to see how they evolve and if they plan to rotate toys or the layout as they're open longer. It was pretty cold inside when we went. They're probably trying to account for body heat which makes sense because I hate when indoor play places are so hot! But since we were one of two families at the time, it was freezing cold so just bring a jacket in case! I provided my feedback to the owner on Instagram and they were super receptive to it. They ask for feedback when they come in so just know that they are open to bad or good, just tell them so they can improve on it and know what people like! Overall great spot, we will definitely be back because it's so close to home. I think I saw on their Instagram you can pay a little more for an all day pass and come as you wish all day! That would be awesome for the weekdays since they're open until 8, which is surprisingly late for a kids play center! read more

What an adorable play place that's center stage of what used to be our little town, now big City! Think Art Beast (Downtown) meet small town. This was absolutely the best birthday venue for our son's 5th birthday celebration with friends. We can't wait to go back for free play with friends! read more

There is an area with tables and chairs for having a snack or other food. They also have tea, novels for the grown-ups to read, and snacks and drinks you can buy. Very well thought out place- great for families and kids. read more

My Toddler LOVES this place and so do I. I have a toddler and a crawling baby but I can keep an eye on both of them in this place. Its also not super overstimulating and much more focused on imagination play read more

Amazing space for kids to play from infant to preschool. Thoughtful touches for parents/caregivers include coffee, a booknook and seating. Highly recommend! read more

We absolutely love this play space! It's warm, inviting and feels homey. The art space is amazing with new activities constantly. We love the weekend evening hours also. The families that attend are diverse and always involved so it feels like a a safe space. Other indoor play areas we have visited lack parental supervision and lead to uncomfortable situations but this has never happened at Space to Play. We are grateful it exists and is close to home. read more

My boys and I stumbled upon this space while driving around looking for new places to explore -- and what a gem we found! They absolutely LOVED it. They said they felt like they were using more "brain power" as they created their masterpieces, learned about momentum by figuring out how to pass a ball through tubes, and even role-played everything from a supermarket to fine dining. As a parent, I loved seeing them completely screen-free and fully immersed in imaginative play. The space is fun, colorful, and thoughtfully designed to spark creativity and curiosity. Brian was especially warm and welcoming -- he even helped the boys submit their artwork to be featured in the kids' showcase happening in April. Thank you for creating such a magical place for kids to just be kids! read more

We came for the first time yesterday and my kids loved it! Felt very safe and inviting. Absolutely love the art room. Climbing structure was sturdy and safe. Great choice of costumes. We stopped going to another competitor because it did become overwhelming for my kids and coming here felt very relaxed and not so overstimulating. It's great to keep in mind that kids get overstimulated and I see they have a date coming up next week where they dim the lights and lower the music. A+ for that! Because not only do kids need environments like this so do parents like myself. Btw my kids didn't want to leave. They wanted to spend the night. lol! read more

I can't say enough good things about space to play! As a parent of a child with ASD, finding a safe and welcoming environment where my child can play and interact comfortably is priceless. The facilities are thoughtfully designed, with sensory-friendly elements that cater perfectly to kids on the spectrum. But what truly sets space to play apart is the owner's Morgan warmth and understanding. From the moment we walked in, we felt like family. The owner took the time to chat with us, learn about our child's needs, and ensure we felt completely at ease. Their dedication to creating an inclusive space for all children shines through in every aspect of the play place. My child had an absolute blast exploring the various play areas, and I couldn't be happier seeing them so engaged and joyful. It's evident that the owner and staff genuinely care about every child who walks through the door, and that's something truly special. Thank you, space to play! for providing such a wonderful experience for families like mine. We'll definitely be back soon! Also it's very clean ! read more

I was looking for something to do with my two young kids (18 months and almost 4) and came across this place. I am so glad I did! We came in and were welcomed by two workers who explained the different play areas and were kind to my kids. My kids played for 2 1/2 hours and could have gone longer if it wasn't for nap time! Besides the play areas, there is an art room that is perfect place for kids to use their imagination. If we lived anywhere near here, we'd have a pass and be here all the time. read more

I really enjoyed bringing my 15 month old son here. They have so many toys, stuffed animals, and books. There are also two slides, a few play pretend structures, a piano, dress up area and plenty of seating for parents. The cost of entry $17 includes child and parent, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. The changing area offers complimentary diaper and wipes. The staff were really friendly and consistently picking up and making sure the facility was clean. I'd say if you have a child under 5 they would have a great time playing and exploring. My son really enjoyed himself and we will definitely be coming back. read more

This place is so much fun and so thoughtfully set up for babies, toddlers, and parents. The decor is beautiful, it's safe, so much fun, and actually relaxing for parents. They have healthy snacks for kids, caffeine for parents, chargers, diaper changing station with diapers if needed, potties for toddlers, nursing and nap room, and the coolest art room! We loved it! read more

I am so glad that finally a place like this opened in Elk Grove ! So much for the kids to play with . As soon as I entered I was welcomed and the ladies explained to me that they have a diaper station with diapers provided for my little one . I loved the warm welcome . They also provide coffee and tea for free, which is a plus . My 4 year and 1 year old boys love this place . It's not chaotic or too dark . It has nice natural sunlight that does not overwhelm them . You def need to Check this place out . Love how friendly everyone is. read more

The Girl Scout cookies sold here were expired. Multiple broken toys and no glow in the dark room. There are cushions that are ripped and tatty and the place felt isolated and desparate. It was not pleasurable for my grandsons as it was mostly geared towards girls. The whole environment is cloudy feeling. I am not sure why the forms ask for ethnicity as it bears nothing towards the facility. Very insecure place to take your kids. read more

Great variety of things to play with. Staff was friendly. Things were neat and tidy. My nephew loved it.

Creative space for the children! First class experience. The design of the interior is well thought out

So glad I found this place on Facebook. I took my 7 month old grandson for the 1st time and it was great. This place is so cute, full of colors, and lots of activities for different age groups. The young lady at the front desk was super sweet and the place was so clean!! They also provide coffee & tea for parents which is awesome!! We will definitely be returning and I will recommend this to everyone I know!! Thank you for existing!! read more

Great indoor playground! I love that they have an art place for kiddos to enjoy. The best part is the toilet seat built in for little ones.! Definitely will be coming back. read more

My husband and I took our 22 and 2 month old here to play for the first time at the recommendation of our close friends. I really appreciated that a space to play allows for both parents to come without an extra fee. We were greeted by the owner and you can tell she really cares about this place and the experience that we all have . They have a small section for crawling and sitting babies . My daughter loved all the Montessori toys . Every toy that you could imagine is there. They are opening an art room which will also be included For the parents, there is free tea and coffee. I love that there is an option for day play or a two hour window . This is nice depending on how far you live and what you have planned. They were getting some decor ready for a Birthday party. They allow for birthdays on Saturdays and sundays. I am also very happy that this place is open on Saturdays early as a lot of similar venues close on weekend to host private parties only. We will definitely be back read more

My daughter loves to play here! My husband and I came with our 19month old daughter and she played for 2+ hours! We ended up getting a membership for her The owner Morgan is very sweet too! You could bring a book and have a coffee and enjoy the space as a parent as well! Elk Grove has been needing more spots like this read more

The place feels homey. Truly a space to play for my son who has autism. It's indeed an open play for everyone.

My husband took our daughter and LOVED the facility. He said our daughter had a blast, and the atmosphere was relaxing compared to a nearby competitor where children are packed in like sardines. There were tons of toys, and the coffee was a nice touch. We will definitely be returning! read more

Super cute spot that will most likely get even better based on owners asking for feedback. Nice space and super kind owner. Took my son here and we spent a few hours hanging out. Multiple play stations and activities with a super cool "dark room". Really wanted to go in there and take a nap! Hoping to have this place in rotation for my toddler in terms of our weekly activities . read more

I love doing play dates here. It's a perfect size spot for children to run around and you can sit still and see your child from where you're sitting. They allow you to bring in food which is amazing and they promote working from home mamas! There's tables and outlets for laptops. They do recommend socks, so don't forget to bring socks! I also think it's great that they have a little donation area for diapers and wipes. So if you ever forget diapers or wipes they have them there for you. If I could give them 4.5 stars I would. I deducted a star because last time I came with 3 children and me and my adult sister. The worker tried to charge me an extra $5 for my adult sister, which was confusing because their policy says each child comes with admission for 1 adult. I had asked if one of the kids are hers wouldn't she be free? Which she was but the child had to be $15 instead of $12. So I basically paid $3 for my sister to come in with me. I feel like their policy should be a little bit clearer because the first time I came with a friend and I paid for her and her kids and my friend was free. Also, the first time I came I saw a dad just walk in when meeting his wife and kid (one kid). Otherwise this place is amazing and I don't mind paying extra, just wish it was a consistent price every time I come. read more
