They've aged out of the soft play areas, but now they can spend hours at the stop motion video station and exploring the newer exhibits. The recycling area is also one of their favorites. It's such a quaint little space and incredibly affordable for what you get. I also love seeing downtown Mesa continue to grow, and the museum feels like a big part of that energy. From a parent perspective, it's really easy to visit. There's ample parking, it's very stroller and diaper bag friendly, and it's a perfect place for a playdate. You can actually have conversations while the kids explore and move between activities. The mural in the courtyard is gorgeous and the puppets are always a hit with my kids. It's one of those places we keep coming back to.

There's a variety…read moreof equipment to climb, slide, and bounce on and there's also a smaller kid area so it appeals to kids of all ages. There are benches for parents to sit on, as well as massage chairs for an extra cost if you would like to indulge. The staff have been friendly and I haven't encountered any problems here. They do require grip socks so make sure to bring some or you can buy some at the register. The time that you pay for corresponds to the band color they give your kid and they will announce on the speaker when your time is up. For the most part the area is fairly well maintained. It's an indoor park where lots of kids are running through so a little chaos is not unusual. Some of the restroom stalls seem perpetually out of order but there are enough available that we haven't had to wait. Some of the benches could use a re-upholster but for the most part things seem clean enough. At our last visit the young woman at the register was very nice and she was such a hard worker, keeping the entire area clean. Kudos to her dedication!

Lots of cubbies to store shoes and bags. A good size open space with lots of different play area. With the openness you can see everywhere. The 2-5 year olds had a great time on the trampoline, dressing up, play on the ride on toys, and playing hide and seek. The 1 year old still not a walker options were limited, but still crawled and watched every thing. I do agree with the lack of cleanliness review. It does need a good cleaning. You definitely need to wash your hands after playing here. No one did any in the 2 hours we were there. It was great that they had a snack area for the kids. Lots of tables, chairs, and even a microwave. They did have a broom, paper towels, and sink we just cleaned up after ourselves. This place is a great way to beat the heat and let kids run free in a safe space. The price is good and you can leave and come back if you get a stamp. I really like the cute artwork on the walls that was for sale. I would definitely recommend!

They don't have much play food for the kitchens and zero dolls, but otherwise I think they have a nice variety. We will definitely come back- they have a 6 pack pass that we will purchase next time (makes it about $10 a visit). Very nice Asian gentleman at the front. Cubbies for stuff. They don't have that purple caterpillar that's in some of the pictures, just FYI. It's only for younger kids, which is perfect and why we will go back- no need to worry about baby getting in the way of bigger kids. I definitely do recommend this place

The store is packed with amazing fossils, rocks, and so many interesting things to explore. The staff was beyond helpful and kind. The gentleman working there took the time to answer all of our questions and even brought something special out from the back to show us -- which made the experience feel extra special. My daughter absolutely loved picking out her own geode and cracking it open with their machine to reveal the crystals inside. That was definitely the highlight of our visit! We will 100% be coming back next time we're in Arizona -- and we truly wish there was a store like this in California! Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

I had never heard of this, but after reading about it on their website I was game. The bowling concept is the same except I didn't need my bowling shoes that I brought and the balls were palm sized with no holes. It took me quite a few rolls to figure out the best way to knock the pins down. The various screen and floor themes add to the fun. I especially enjoyed the Pinpix theme which creates a facial features and crazy accessories. The only thing that was missing was music. We got there when they first opened at 10am and we were the only ones in the bowling area so it was quiet. The staff was really helpful and explained how everything worked. I love the concept of indoor go-karts, bowling, arcade, food, etc for a fun time.

We were told to check back in five minutes before the heat started. On our way to check in, we saw some other people checking in who we had previously observed partaking in some 'recreational activities' in the parking lot - no judgment on that, but I do have a legitimate concern for my safety driving with others under an influence. I approached the staff member in the check in room and explained the situation and asked if we could postpone to the next heat. I was told I'd have to go back to the front desk and ask if they can make the change and that the next heat wouldn't be for another half hour. We didn't have the flexibility in our schedule to stay that long so we decided to participate in the current heat. The staff member told me I could pull over to the side to get assisted off the track if I needed to at any time. I didn't love that I would have to exit the race because of someone else's behavior. Interestingly, during the race, one person crashed into the wall in front of me and the other person crashed into my partner. Aside from all that drama, the track was pretty fun with lots of hard turns. The vehicles had great traction. The turbo button on the vehicle I was using was not marked or colored, so I was not able to use it during the race which was disappointing. I think that all of the entertainment and activity options were exciting and plentiful. If I had endless time and funds, I could definitely keep myself busy here for several hours, maybe even an entire day. I didn't love that a single go kart race was $30 per person and I didn't love that safety wasn't taken more seriously.

The setup includes trampolines, an obstacle course, a zip line, and go-karting. Go-karting is definitely the main attraction, though it usually comes with a long wait. The pizzas are decent, nothing special. The arcade area could use better organization -- it's not very clear how to use the games, and there wasn't anyone around to assist. Overall, the kids really enjoy the place, but for adults, it's just another average entertainment spot.
