Brought my nephew here for a mid morning playtime so he could run around somebody else's place and not my place.
The people were really friendly, I like the selection of snacks and drinks that are available if you did not think to bring any. The facilities that we saw all seemed very clean.
My nephew just turned five and he is almost a little too old to have fun here. He still enjoyed himself and found some things to do, but I feel like the two and three-year-olds we saw were having a lot more things to have fun with than he was. The brick shaped building blocks were awesome, and he enjoyed building an entire Minecraft themed house and then knocking it down, and I rather liked the idea of the wooden building sets, but the amount of injuries that they seem to cause was not great. It definitely does not seem like a toy that can be bulk played with while having a ton of kids around.
All of the rides were obviously targeted towards smaller kids because he didn't quite fit. The ball pit was a huge success, and he spent the majority of his time in there. Some of the slide themed play structures looked really fun, and the kids seemed to enjoy them, but there was one monkey bar type, climbing set that... I will just say that I'm thankful I had my nephew and not my children, because it's a lot easier for me to disconnect from being an overprotective aunt than it is to not be an overprotective parent. The slide was too steep so I saw multiple kids bang their heads at the bottom and get hurt or upset. It also has a large climbing ladder part aimed for letting the kids climb on top of the monkey bars, and climb across that way. It just made me uncomfortable watching tiny kids climb up and then get too nervous to move. There is a fine line between autonomy and overprotective and boy was it hard to toe that line for me.
Overall, I definitely feel like we will be back here on a warm summer day when it's just too hot to play outside, and we kind of want him to interact with other children. read more
