There are mats in bins for you to use when you are sliding and you are given a color coded wristband to wear. When your time is up they'll announce your band color on the speakers. You can get some serious air with some of the slides! There are plenty of tables for those that are just there to spectate. There's also a snack area and a section for birthday parties. I'm sure a party here would be a blast! The only negative is that it was really dark the last time we went here. I'm not sure if it's usually this way or if they don't have as many lights on in the summer to save energy and cooling costs.

Just have to have more faith/hope. With that being said, I've been to this museum a couple times. It always seems to bring new wonder to me as an adult just trying to learn and grow. Very much worth your time. Please don't hesitate to take your time and share your experiences with your kiddos. They just want a little attention. They're KIDS. (:

It's also a great spot to entertain and tire out the kids! Lol There's even a Ferris wheel, but it was way too hot for us to ride. We also found a photo booth near the restrooms ($8), which was a fun little bonus. It's conveniently located near OdySea, Topgolf, and Talking Stick, and it's super easy to get to from the freeway. If you're visiting during the summer, I'd recommend saving the outdoor walking for the cooler months and spending the hotter afternoons indoors at OdySea.

1 Star - Dangerous and disappointing experience on the Big Wheel…read more I rode the Boardwalk Big Wheel at Arizona Boardwalk today with my two young boys, ages 2 and 4. The experience was honestly terrible and, more importantly, felt unsafe. It was 105°F outside, and we were placed in the orange #15 gondola. The gondolas are primarily enclosed by glass and have no effective air conditioning. The AC in ours was clearly broken and was blowing hot air instead of cooling the cabin. Within minutes, all three of us were drenched in sweat and the heat inside was becoming extremely uncomfortable. The biggest issue was that the attendant locked us inside the gondola despite the extreme heat. We waved at her to let us out, but she didn't. We went around the entire wheel and, when we came back around, we waved again. She saw us, but still didn't open the door. I ultimately had to yell and knock on the glass to get her attention before she finally let us out after the second trip around. When we got off, I explained what had happened to the attendant. Her response was essentially an unenthusiastic, unapologetic "sorry." There was no concern about whether my children or I were okay, no offer to move us to a functioning gondola, and no refund or other attempt to make the situation right. I paid $22.71 for the ride, but the money isn't really the issue. What concerns me is putting young children into an enclosed, extremely hot gondola with a malfunctioning cooling system and then failing to respond when the passengers are clearly asking to get out. I would strongly recommend that Arizona Boardwalk inspect and properly maintain these gondolas and, more importantly, make sure attendants respond immediately when passengers are signaling that they need to exit. I would not recommend riding the Boardwalk Big Wheel, particularly with young children in extreme heat.

We were visiting from Omaha and looking for something indoors to do. We found this on Yelp and…read morefigured it looked just good enough to enjoy a few hours. The price was $21 per kid+$4 for socks, making it in the middle of cheap and expensive. With limited options for any better price point we ended up attending. I will say, as someone who visits the Rainforest Cafe, this is like an interactive spot! I loved the whole play area. It's sky high with a ton of things to climb and play on. We have a 7 and 10 year old and both had a ton of fun. I got a play card to play some games and we got our fill of fun and burned energy by the end. It is definitely on the older side of play places, but I found it nostalgic. It was like chuck e cheese meets the wild. I would recommend it if you were looking for something to do.

I was shocked how well this place is run because it seems like it could be a madhouse especially on the weekends, however, I think because of how they have the play areas spaced out, there's not too much traffic running from one spot to the next. I didn't see many kiddo casualties while we enjoyed a good two-hour session here for my son, his little friend and my daughter (who's barely a toddler). The ball pit area where older kids can play had this virtual gaming screen that was quite captivating for my son. He really liked playing there. My daughter on the other hand had a blast bouncing around in the basketball court area as well as the big Lego block building spot for babies. The food area seemed quaint here. Parents were in line grabbing snacks and drinks quite a bit while we were there. I'd definitely return with my kids in the near future. *Note: they do require you to purchase their branded sticky socks

Guardians are not charged and not required to wear grippy socks. They have a lot of different attractions such as The Floor is Lava obstacle course, huge ball pit with an interactive play screen, large play structures with multiple slides, basketball court with many hoops of variable heights, a giant ground air trampoline, tube slide, food and drinks for purchase, quiet private pods (for nursing, phone calls, etc) and even a peripheral track for adults to walk around and get exercise. My kiddo thought everything was super fun and he had a total blast. One thing I did notice the entire 2 hours we were there, was zero attendants monitoring the play structures. My kiddo was told by other kiddos that he could not go on the tube slide which definitely wasn't true because he was old enough according to the age requirement. Meanwhile, the same kids were both riding in the same tube, which is not allowed according to the same sign. I was wondering where their parents were. Also, the interactive screen in the ball pit had a lot of technical difficulties. It would not consistently respond to the balls hitting the targets or even a hand hitting the targets. So definitely a few areas of improvement needed, but overall, we had a really great time!

The main reason was the staff. They were really good with the kids and seemed to really like their job. There was a ton of activities for our grandson to do. It's one of the few times where he hasn't told me he's ready to leave 30 minutes after we take him somewhere. I really liked the ambience too. There was music playing, which provided a lively atmosphere, but it wasn't so loud that it was annoying. Every kid I observed was having so much fun. The highlight of the visit was when he decided he wanted to do the climbing wall. Because of his age, I was hesitant but he actually did very well, and the safety gear looked really secure. He loved the challenge. The entire facility was very clean, including the bathroom. We will definitely be going back! Thank you, Uptown Jungle

It makes sense why the word "Jungle" is in the name of this place. Cause wow does it feel like it…read more Actually, more like a zoo but definitely a wild place for kids to get out their sillies. I like the wide variety of activities available to kids (trampoline area, tons of ninja-warrior-like equipment, the ball-shooting area, and toddler-dedicated play spot). I was amazed there were zero casualties the day I took both my 5 year old and 18-month old there one weekend. There were so, so many kids and adults hanging about that day. And even though you pay for the 2-hour slot, I don't think they really keep tabs on when the time expires as the capacity of the spot got tighter and tighter as we neared the end of our 2-hour slot. Even though it was extremely fun for both my kids, the place definitely needs a bit of a renovation on some of the areas and honestly way too overstimulating for a working-mom like myself. I might need to come back to play places like these when I become a grandma and am retired.
