I also love it because I don't have to really worry about him getting into things he shouldn't. Somebody in a review complained about the owner, but I think she's a sweet lady. I really liked the community feel. I don't mind someone getting onto my kid, reasonably, if he is doing something he shouldn't. I think my favorite room is the quiet room. I love the cricket sounds, the fish lava lamps, for lack of a better word, and the fiber optic things. I mean I could take a nap in there. Everything is clean and tidy. I 100% recommend this place to anybody with little kids.

Here is my experience after cooling off from what I encountered today at Sensory Towne. From the…read moremoment we walked in this place, the owner was showing some passive aggressiveness off the bat. She informed me of all the rules. She proceeds to say there were no stuffed animals or toys allowed as my daughter was carrying a stuffed animal. So, I placed the stuffed animal in the bag and proceeded to walk in the play area. From that moment on, the owner literally was helicoptering over us reminding me specifically of "the rules". She never once stayed at her desk besides checking in a family. Instead, she proceeded to follow me and my daughter around and felt I had a target on my back for no rhyme or reason. She comes up behind me, scolding me like a child saying "MOM, drinks and snacks belong at the TABLES." She did this second time.This time, not even thinking honestly, I put my iced coffee on one of the tables that WASN'T allowed (God forbid.) And she comes up behind my shoulder AGAIN. Scolding me. We literally had NO room to breathe or get away from the owner as she just kept following me and every person around inside the play area. She then makes a remark about my daughter's diaper saying "it's falling out of her shorts..hahahah..." passive aggressively telling me to change her diaper. I already had a diaper in my hand when she said this and literally was done. Literally kept coming up to me and telling us how the equipment works and making comments...when all I wanted to do was ENJOY TIME WITH MY DAUGHTER. US. Not us and the owner. But I felt as if I couldn't take two steps in that place because otherwise she was RIGHT THERE on my shoulder..ready and waiting to say something I was doing wrong!! It was extremely uncomfortable and I felt extremely disrespected as a parent! Being scolded the entire half hour we were there, feeling like a kid in first grade is how she talked down to me. I proceeded to leave a review while there and she sees it, confronts me and I tell her its because she has been following us the entire time to the point of almost harassment. As I am sitting there after we spoke, I was telling my friend what happened. She then comes back..STARES AT ME...and I tell my friend, "See? She refuses to leave us alone." Almost laughing because she literally WOULD NOT STOP. We decided to go ahead and leave. As I am putting on our shoes she, from behind me at the front desk, called me ENTITLED. Who and/or what business OWNER says something to a customer out loud like that?? I have been to several different indoor play places in Jacksonville including the little social Cafe and the former nestling collective..and none were anything like we experienced here at Sensory Towne today!! The place was dim, dark, and grungy on top of the awful experience so we will not be coming back ever again.

We do not live in the Gainesville area but we do have family that does. We came here for a…read morebirthday party for my nephew and this place is very similar to the other trampoline parks I've been to. This one, however has arcades, laser tag, and a rope course. Looks like they had party room options but our party was located upstairs at a long picnic type table. What I did like was that they had large loungers (very comfortable) available along the wall upstairs where parents and the adult guests could sit while the party took place. The kids jumped for about an hour then came upstairs for the pizza, chicken tenders, and cake. Given that the party seemed rushed there was no time to open gifts so we helped take them to the parent's car then we all left. My main reason for not giving 5 stars is that we were all advised that prior to the party to fill out the online waiver (which is required for all of these types of parks), which we did fill out. Upon arriving, we were asked to fill out a paper waiver -- I advised the young staff member that we already filled this out online so why are we now having to fill it out again. She seemed to be dumbfounded and didn't know -- told me that she was just told to have all party guests fill out the waiver and that she thought it was because they were having system issues but wasn't sure. Frustrating but I made the hubs fill it out since I did it online previously and didn't feel like filling it out again.

I learned that the museum of science is expanding to a new home and it will take some years for the official move and space. Throughout my travels , looking for staples in the community that offer hands on learning, family friendly spaces, and a budgeted treat truly takes time to explore. Today I walked through showcases filled with history from the Victorian era; some relics were plants and photos from the 1970! I hadn't been inside a planetarium in a few years and you still appreciate the wonder when you hear children awe at the science and story telling in front of their eyes. All the staff were incredible , helping answer and questions they had- a major shout out to Vystar credit union as a volunteer partner making the day impactful for the masses. Go visit your museum- science centers- arts locations as we are continuously evolving in science and expanding our living history. Today was special!

Looking for somewhere new for my daughter to play, we visited this spot. Advertised as a play place…read morefor ages 0-5, I thought it would be a great experience as she'd recently turned 4. When we walked in, my first impression was that it was bit small. I was shocked when they told me that it was $26 for admission. Any thoughts I may have had of letting my infant play around fleeted away. That was quite expensive, particularly in comparison to similar places in Jacksonville and actually across the country. The place is cute though but probably better for very young kids. They have a water table, swings, small foam pit, small climbing apparatus with slides, dolls with bassinets, dress up clothes, and a few other things. After about 20 minutes, my daughter asked me if there was another room because she had played with everything already. Perhaps when our baby gets a little older we'll return without my older daughter. We'll see. I know they offer memberships but it would be hard for me to consider going there multiple times a month.

There were different areas/centers: kitchen, pet clinic, slides and swings, water table, etc. It is one big open space which is nice but also means there are toys everywhere and not always in the right "center" they are supposed to be in. They have a coffee machine and a snack area with water, milk, and juice options plus various snacks (fruit bars, goldfish, pirates booty, pringles, etc.). It's advertised for ages 0-5. My 5 year old had fun but felt like my 2.5 year old enjoyed it more. I'm glad we have something indoors for days when it's really hot or rainy. They also host birthday parties which I think would be best if they were private parties (not sure how they are setup). I can see us coming back!
