If you are contemplating having your kid's party here, DO IT!! Trust a mom who has had many'a less…read moresavory party experiences in the area. We had my child's birthday party there on Friday evening, and oh my goodness, we could not have had a more positive experience. Prior to party day, I spoke with Goldi on the phone. She was so kind and warm and helpful, it felt like I was talking to an old friend. She answered every question and was amazing. The day of the party, I was greeted at the entrance with the bright shining faces of Makayla, Goldi, Lisa and Brett. From the second I walked in, they were a cohesive, unbelievably efficient team. Just as Goldi had made me feel on the phone, all four of them made me and all of my guests feel completely at home. My husband and I divided and conquered party day, so I was the solo party prepper (or so I thought!). Goldi and Lisa, like a real life Sonic and Tails, whipped up a beautiful party area for our group with personalized touches, tailored to my son's interests. They did the *work* part, ALL of the *work* part, and let me creatively direct. I let them know my son gets nervous when being sung to, center of attention, etc. and they were beautifully accommodating to that, including pushing off the Huggie parade until he was comfortable. Lisa (Huggie! :]) was patient and fun with all of the kids. Goldi was her right hand lady (literally) to keep things moving, fun and safe. We had one little girl in our party who wanted to see Huggie, but was scared to get close and crying. Goldi approached her so gently and kindly, demystifying the aspects of Huggie she was worried about, and giving the little girl space to choose. Our girl got a huge smile, ran to Huggie and HUGGED him. A child who just moments before was hiding behind her friend in fear, smiling her tears away and facing her fears. It was beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Makayla stayed at the front for the first half of the party, and I'm so happy she did because although we'd have loved her company, having her as the first person you are greeted by is a great call by KE Ballwin, because she is sunshine in human form. She kept the lines moving safely and efficiently in both directions, while chatting with and brightening the days of those entering and leaving. She and Brett took over as the primary party people once Goldi and Lisa had to leave, and Goldi physically brought us together to thank me for coming, and verbally handing us off to Makayla, so all of us were on the exact same page the whole time. Brett was also incredibly helpful and seems to be like a backstage manager. It seemed as if they were physically positioned in a way to be able to communicate and work together effortlessly, even from across that giant building! He could not have been sweeter or more helpful either, even reminding me a couple times to absolutely not lift a finger cleaning up our party. I did not have one single minute of stress from the time I reserved my party time to the time we got home with that post-successful party joy! If I ran the world, Goldi, Lisa, Makayla and Brett would get a raise! But at the very least, I feel their kind hearts, work ethics, and clear expertise deserve to be recognized.Thanks so much, guys!

Wow! I was very impressed with our first visit to Kids Empire. For $20 my daughter was allowed to…read moreplay all day, and come and go as much as we pleased. The adults don't have to pay, but still get to participate. Everything seemed really clean which feels rare for a play place like this. We took advantage of the $6 snack box which I felt like was a good deal considering what you get/how it would be priced separately. My daughter (3) had the time of her life and has been begging to go back ever since. I have to shoutout the employee who was working, Goldie, because she made the whole experience so smooth and she went out of her way to be helpful to us. We will be returning soon!!

The card is good for three years but then you must pay for entry. Very pricey and not advertised that you must have a card. The pools were full of cicadas, leave and other dirt and debris. They only have two slides for bigger kids and one slide for smaller kids. It's a small "water park" so I don't feel the quality is worth the price. There are three different pools plus a lazy river.

There is a hot tub in the center of the indoor pool where adults can just chills, with full view of the kids swimming as long as the kids old enough and can swim. There is an outdoor pool which is a small walk from the indoor pool. There plenty of lifeguards here today. This facility looks clean today. The staff is nice. There is also an indoor kids' place area called the RiverChase rainforest. There is a child watch room here too for parents who want to exercise. There is an indoor walking lap area and I saw some exercise area. The shower has a swimsuit spinner machine to help the swimsuit dry. There are lockers but no locks so if you go bring your own lock. There is no sauna or stream room.

Best park in STL contender!…read more This park has it all! Spacious. Clean. Maintained. Beautiful. Accessible. The best add to this park is the Teddy and Friends accessibility friendly kid playground. The playground is vibrantly colored, soft padding for the grounds, accessible swings and other equipment. There are even musical elements of the space. Close by the park is their community center that has family friendly restrooms and diaper stations. Dogs are allowed in the park areas but not inside the center. The walking trails are very long so make sure you have enough time to explore. The trails are so wheelchair friendly but I recommend only skilled wheelchair users do the trails alone as there can be natural debris or elevation obstacles.

The shelter provided the perfect space and we were able to move the food tables underneath with enough space for the guests to eat and play games. Queeny is her favorite park so being able to incorporate it into her shower made her so so happy! There's plenty of parking and such a lovely high view of the overall park for a great backdrop for pictures. The best way to get to this spot is through the entrance from Weidman. A lot of us guests got lost by the many entrances and had to circle around and were afraid we would be too late but it all worked out! Would be great to have some signage at other entrances to say where to go to get to certain parts of the park.

It seems like 2-6 years old would be the ideal age for this place. As a parent, I like that this place is all one room so bringing multiple littles feels easier to manage in an enclosed area. A few of our favorite things include the trampoline, dress up area, swings and the zip line. The sensory room makes a great place to nurse if you don't mind kids running in and out of the room. Haha! I love that the owner organizes games with the kids if they want to play hide and seek or the floor is lava with other kids. Tip: You can call ahead to see how crowded the place is before making the drive over to the gym.

The seats with umbrellas fill up quickly, so if that's important to you, get there when they open. Concession stand is standard, but they do seem to run out of things. Bathrooms are always clean. You're not allowed to eat food in the pool area, only by the concession stand, so don't be surprised if a lifeguard calls you (or your kid) out for having food in the pool area. Highly recommend!

Those positive experiences made what followed even more disappointing. My most recent interaction with the front desk the night prior to our event significantly changed my perception of the center. The front desk attendant, Jacqueline, was unprofessional and inappropriate in her conduct. During our interaction, she repeatedly accused us of being dishonest regarding a conversation she was not present for--despite the fact that the conversation was later confirmed to have occurred. She also made claims that we had done something to her, which was entirely untrue. What was even more disappointing was the follow-up from management. While they acknowledged the situation internally, they stated they "cannot force her to apologize" underscoring that he reviewed the video footage. Unfortunately, that footage did not include audio as it would show that I never raised my voice at her, cursed or insulted her. She, however raised her voice and insulted me multiple times. He also failed to acknowledge a key point: the situation was escalated by her repeatedly calling me a liar. Instead of addressing that behavior directly, the matter was reduced to a "she said, she said" scenario. Additionally, there was a third party affiliated with the center who could have been consulted to help verify what occurred as he apologized to us once we left but based on the call, it does not sound like that step was taken. An apology would have gone a long way toward resolving this situation, especially given the personal nature of the insults. Because of this experience, we will be moving future events to other venues whose staff demonstrate professionalism and held accountable when they fall short of that standard.
