I always leave with a horrific headache after a couple of hours in an enclosed space with the high pitched squeals of sweaty children having far more fun than is good for them. However, the silver lining to these places is the guaranteed time off resulting from the muckle nap small children will need shortly after visiting. It makes that couple of hours all worthwhile and keeps me coming back and happily handing over money. Bubbles Factory is purpose built and a really good soft play. The cafe area is clean, bright and appealing and the soft play area is well maintained and adored by big and small children alike. On this visit I ordered a coffee and empire biscuit for me and a cheese sandwich for puff. It is worth noting that a wait for food is usual but since everything is freshly prepared and there is plenty to distracted impatient children this hasn't ever been an issue for us, even on really busy rainy days. The coffee isn't brilliant, it's a machine rather than proper espresso and they do loose a star for that - proper good coffee would make me much happier here! But the empire biscuit and the cheese sandwich were very good and since puff went on to sleep for a mammoth 3 hours following our visit I'll be going back.

The only drawback for me with this place is that as it is so big, if you are attending with toddlers you really can't sit back and enjoy your coffee while you watch them play. However, there is a great variety of play options for a wide age range. On weekdays there are lots of extra toys and little ride in cars and scooters for the toddlers. Sadly these aren't out at the weekends (I guess it is too busy at the weekends to make this feasible). Also watch out for an increase in the entrance fee at weekends, though this seems to be the case at other soft plays too. The cafe has a great selection of cakes, traybakes, snacks, breakfast and lunch options too. We have only ever had coffee and cake, but this has been lovely. Any time we have been the facilities have always been clean and maintained to a good standard. The changing facilities are spacious and well maintained also. For the older kids there is lots to keep them entertained also, the highlight being a 20ft drop slide called The Warp Drop... Not sure I'd be brave enough to try this one though! I really like this place and my two year old has a ball here. Though for this age group I would recommend attending early before it gets too busy, especially at the weekend !

I have a confession: I have been known to have epic tantrums post-mini golf in the past. I'm glad…read moreto say after Saturday's outing, coming second last and scoring a default 6 on most holes, I am now reformed: no more tantrums! Thanks to David A for organising this awesome UYE as part of the Festival of Firsts. We visited Jurassic Parrr on a cloudy/sunny Saturday to take on the challenge of 18 holes of dino-fun times. But first, we needed to conquer the cafe. There's lots of outdoor seating and comfy couches inside. We ordered at the counter after locating a menu - I went for a baked potato with ham and cheese. At a whopping £5.50 I was less than chuffed at the price but needs must - I would've definitely had a tantrum if I was required to mini golf on an empty stomach. The topping was great - more like gammon than ham, and lashings of cheese. The potato wasn't great though, a little dry. The outside of the potato was super crisp and yum, so I just scooped out most of the middle and ate the topping and skin. Onto the golf: it's £7.50 per adult and for that you get a putter, ball, and a score card. It's probably best to play in a group of 4 and so we split into two groups. There's some pretty cool holes along the way but it would be loads better if there was a bit of an upgrade and more novelty elements. All in all though, it was a pretty fun way to spend an hour or so, and I'd go back in the future.

We went to Jurassic Parr when we were in Glasgow as an activity for us to do in between other stuff…read morewe had planned for the day. What to say? Well, mini golf is mini golf. We generally enjoy playing mini golf and a themed mini golf park makes it just that much more enjoyable. We really enjoyed that this particular golf course takes into account 3 of our senses. You get the visual from the environment, the giant dinosaurs (some of them moves), the cave, the water, etc. They have speakers with growls and nature type sounds, it even smells like fire. Plus, they have an app to take down scores and as lovers of new technologies, we really enjoyed having the option to go paperless. The only downfall, was the small amount of "unusual" holes. There was only 3 or 4 holes which were directly linked to the theme, the others were just the usual plain holes you find in most mini golf courses (and not overly challenging at that). we really enjoyed our round, but we wont be going out of our way to go back again.

After this wild workout everyone got a little paper bag full of tuck shops sweets, it was great! After the ice-skating my dad usually took us to the swimming pool, the river rapids were my favourite part and I could swim here for hours. I particularly remember the scary red dragon statue and the cave men who looked down on your when you were swimming round the pool, one of them was wielding a spear which I have to admit, was a little bit scary. They also have a huge play area with ball pools, slides, climbing walls - it just looks amazing. Unfortunately, my parents never let me go here and I feel that I've missed out. At the moment the play area pool is closed for major refurbishment, who knows what it will look like when it's finished? I think I might take a trip back soon for good old times sakes. A fantastic day out for all the family!

This place is lovely, set in the Perthshire hills the scenery alone is spectacular…read more The wildlife centre is roughly 10 miles west of Crieff so if you don't have transport it is difficult to get to. They have a varied range of animals consisting of lots of types of birds from around the world, Prairie dogs, deer, Llamas and many more, to many to mention. They have a large area where you can go in and pet the animals within as well as the usual pens holding the other animals. There is a Falconry Centre, which is paid for separately (only if you want to hold and have your picture taken with one) as well as a hatchery, woodland walks, barbeque area and a massive playing area for the kids, indoor and outdoor. There is also a gift shop and cafe a lot of the produce being home made. When your there it feels like your on a large farm with amazing animals that are always friendly and looking for a bit of attention, you can even buy bags of food so as your trotting around the centre you are able to feed them as well. Entrance fee is £6 per adult and £4 per child; family tickets available, so it is excellent value for money and you could spend the whole day there. Staff are very friendly and always at hand to help or answer ant questions you may have. If you do have transport this is a brilliant day out for kids and adults and with ample free parking you wont miss out on a wonderful day. Sturdy footwear is advisable

Anyone could leave with a child. There appears to be no policy to ensure that that child is meant to be with the person they are leaving with. Given that my son managed to give us the slip makes the thought of what could happen here not worth bearing. The food is average. And it is kept to a moderate standard of cleanliness. I don't think I'll be going back until the kids are older.

Just been to Crunch and Play (New name for Kingdom of Fun)…read more What can I say ........ to start with £9.50 for a 2 year old and a 7 year old to be allowed into the premises for 2 hours, then we realised very quickly that the place was freezing, to the point that I had to go to the car for a jumper (I had goosebumps on my arms) and I hardly wear jumpers. We got a table at the small kiddies area and realised very quickly that it was almost empty, we now know why....... We ordered food as we thought it would have been a nice day out for a play and food for the kids, the menu choice was dependant on where you sat in the building and most of it wasn't available anyway, most of the hot drinks were unavailable too........ My wife had to ask for cutlery as there was none out, when she was given it, there was still small bits of food on some of it (had to clean it ourselves, baby wipes to the rescue !) We eventually got the food ordered and it arrived......not worth the wait, it was cold, some was under cooked, the stuff that wasn't was tasteless, even the kids did not eat it. We had to ask again for the hot drink which eventually turned up (and well needed due to how cold the place was). The couple at the table next to us were complaining too about how cold it was and seemingly the ladies toilet had only cold water running and no paper towels to dry your hands on, that and it was filthy. On the actual soft play areas there were crisp packets stuffed down the edges of the frame and bits of food, I know kids should not be in the frames with food, but it does happen, but it is not difficult for a member of staff to go round and clean up once in a while. For the price of our visit to Crunch and Play, we could have gone to Crooked Glen only a few minutes away and the kids could have had a play and decent food for cheaper then the muck we paid for. When this place was Kingdom of Fun we used to go fairly often, but I have to say, that is a last for Crunch and Play, it is not worth the time or money, at least Kingdom of Fun was for as long as you wanted to be there, the food was good and the premises was at an acceptable temprature. Save your money and go somewhere decent, avoid here !

Also the playground is one of the best places to meet fellow boozehounds, there's a real community of idiots there. A word of warning though, when on the swings, make sure you don't look at the hypno-disk, it will definitely make you feel queasy at the least.

This was out first visit, having been to Wonder World a good few times, but choosing to come here as it opens earlier.

Pros: - serves a good cuppa and at £1 for a large mug is cheap! - wide range of toys, from ride ons to trucks to giant dance mats for kids to play with on top of the soft play area - breakfast rolls looked good (I never tried one) but all are under £2 - lots of seating (& highchairs) including a few comfy if worn couches - staff are lovely Cons: - smells a bit damp (I feel a bit blurgh just writing that but I really put me off) - areas of the soft play are really quite worn out & in need of replacing - some of the toys need cleaned or binned! - there are signs everywhere in relation to food - they don't like you bringing your own food in, totally understand this when they sell food, but show me the parents of a small child who don't carry bribery snacks?? And when your child insists on eating that exact thing are you supposed to leave? All in all this place is pretty okay for the entry fee charged. I can't help but feel it could be improved quite easily though with a bit of care and attention.
