We just celebrated our son's 5th birthday party here, and words cannot express how happy we were to have chosen VinKari Safari as the place. First off, the playspace is massive. I mean, absolutely enormous. We had 25 kids from ages 2-7 in there, and kids never bumped into each other or fought for any toys. There were swings, bouncy castles, climbing apparatus, cars to ride on, kitchens and trains to play with. It was such a pleasure to see everything so clean, well maintained, and frankly fun for the kids. Not a single kid ran short of things to do or stuff to try for our 2-hour party. Next, the value you get from all the food, great decorations, private space, and top-quality party favors cannot be topped. We loved the setup of our room, and our son especially loved the Spider Man theme. Finally, the courtesy and kindness showed by the entire staff. The owner and his family were the staff today, and they made everything so smooth. From unloading to setting up and eventually to saying bye to our guests, they made sure every detail was easy and a joy for the kids. When we needed an extra balloon or some guidance, they were there in a flash. We shouldn't have been surprised by the success of VinKari Safari given its great ownership and particularly great human touch. We thank you. We are confident our son will have a wonderful lifetime memory of his party. Strongest possible recommendation. read more

Amazing Indoor Playground for Kids and Families!! This indoor playground is truly incredible for both kids and parents. My two-year-old daughter absolutely loves it here--every visit brings unforgettable memories, nonstop fun, and endless smiles. The space is clean, safe, and packed with activities that keep little ones entertained for hours. The owners, Douglas and Steven, are extremely welcoming and make you feel at home the moment you walk in. Their kindness and dedication really set this place apart. Big shout-out to Douglas--he goes above and beyond by dressing up as Elmo and even Santa Claus during the holidays, which makes the experience extra magical for the kids. Thank you, Douglas and Steven--you guys are awesome! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun, family-friendly spot. read more

I am super impressed by this place. I don't know where to even begin....it's clean, it's stocked full of toys, it's sanitary, it's colorful and bright, it's customer service and appreciation is beyond parallel. My child is 3. On a rainy summer day, you need something indoors and engaging to focus his energy. We drove about 45 minutes North of where we were visiting to patron this establishment. It was worth it. The owner was friendly, helpful, and sincere. His family that worked there also were great. There are tons of toys, various rooms to visit, and a snack bar where you can take a break- all at an affordable price. They've thought of everything- from coat and stroller rooms to hand sanitizer wherever and whenever you feel the need. if you have little kids, bookmark this place and give them all your money. read more

The kids like it, but you can lose them easily, it's kind of dirty and it's insanely expensive per child compared to other indoor play spaces in MA. read more

I had my 1year old birthday and it was a private event. I love that they have private birthday parties which makes it more special and intimate for the family and friends. It's a family run business and they really pay attention to your needs and desires. Very clean, and lot of options for the kids. Both kids and adults loved it. I would definitely recommend them. This was my second party and I will be doing more:) Thanks for all your efforts.. read more

I do like this place, but it's really expensive for what it is. $30 per kid - I mean, Canobie Lake tickets are only about $40-50 and that's an entire theme park. read more

Amazing clean space! We loved all the different toys and rooms. There's enough space in this play area where you don't feel like everyone is on top of each other. read more

Guys who own this place/mainly work here very friendly and pleasant 20 dollars a kid is kinda pricy but two adults are free so that's awesome Rooms are not separated by age so little ones need to be supervised. I find people let their older 5+ kids run a little wild and they don't always pay attention to surrounds/little ones but some rooms are definitely catering to the toddler/preschool crowd more then others Imaginative play, jungle gym, a few small play structures and slides so this place pretty much has everything. My daughter is 4 now and we have been coming since she was about 18m. read more

Over 2 years later, and still a 5-star review from me. We don't go to VinKari too often, as it's a bit of a drive for us, but I ALWAYS tell people about it when they ask for good playspaces. And I was very impressed when we walked in the other day, and the woman at the desk (the owner's Mother-in-Law) recognized us!! We actually chatted with the owner for a while and it was really nice to hear why he opened VinKari (he was tired of going to playspaces that advertised open play, but when he arrived, they were closed for a party. And he wanted a place that was VERY clean). He delivers on both fronts - it's always VERY clean, with lots of hand sanitizer and tissues in every room. I regularly see him and his in-laws going around, putting toys back where they belong and tidying up. Every time I go here, something is different/new, as he's constantly trying to make it better and stop people from getting bored. Totally worth the drive. Thank you, VinKari, for some wonderful playtimes. I'm so sad my son is almost too old to play here. read more

This is a great place to bring a toddler! It's clean, colorful and fun. The owners take pride in their facility and are warm and welcoming. I highly recommend a visit to anyone home with small children as a way to get out of the house, especially on a cold or rainy day! read more

We had my son's 2nd birthday here a few weeks ago and it was amazing!!! I didn't have to do anything! The owner and his family have been so accommodating and supportive through all my questions and the actual party! I got one of the highest patty packages so they did everything and it was so worth it! I got to enjoy time with my kids and my guests and didn't have to worry about a thing! I really didn't need a reason to love this place more but the party was definitely the icing to the cake!!! read more

This is an excellent option for a kid's birthday party. We recently had our daughter's fifth birthday here, and were blown away by Doug's preparation and execution.

We had our son's 5th birthday party here! It was the best and the best price! All the kids loved that they got a Melissa and Doug toy to go home with, and my son loved that he had the whole place to himself with all his friends! The owners make it such a relaxing event for the parents, all I had to worry about was bringing the cake ! I highly recommend! read more

We had a fantastic birthday here for our young boys. Doug was extremely accommodating. He and the staff made everything so easy for us so we could enjoy the day and time with friends and family and we didn't have to stress at all about logistics or organizing. Reasonably priced, we'll Definitely be coming back! read more

Didn't know this type of place existed until I started to look for one for my son. This place is awesome if you need a place for your child to run rampant around and just get their energy out! I believe they have two huge rooms and 3 smaller areas for the children to play in so even if it is super busy here, there's enough space for everyone. I do wish they had a under 2 year old area, but it's not a deal breaker. We went right at opening time so it wasn't too crowded but by noon it was crazy! There is a small side snack area where you can eat your food but just remember to clean up after yourself ! I didn't see a nursing area here so it's best to probably bring a bottle since I there isn't really a quiet private space to nurse. Once you leave you are able to come back the same day. Just make sure you get a stamp from the front desk so they will let you in! Plenty of parking, the place is like hidden next door to gold gym( I think.) read more

Just discovered this new indoor play space from a friend's recommendation. My 2-year-old and I met a bunch of our mom and toddler friends there on a weekday a little after 10 am and there were 8 kids total in our group. It's a very clean, well organized place with a big assortment of activities for the kids to do. There is the large room with big plastic play sets (slides, etc), a big (safe!) bouncy thing, several plastic cars, a little gated section for crawlers and a wide variety of baby age appropriate toys, and several padded benches for parents to sit on while watching. Then there is a whole other area with little rooms like Legos; a kitchen and grocery area; a baby doll / hardware and tool / dress up section; three large wooden train tables; an art section (chalk board and crayons with an easel); and a soft matted area with large foam blocks. My daughter and I spent a total of 3.5 hours there today and she still didn't want to leave! They have a cute selection of Melissa & Doug toys in the front lobby to purchase; along with juice boxes, fruit pouches, and other snacks to purchase. There's a small room where you can eat your lunch or snacks equipped with a microwave, high chairs, and a Keurig coffee machine (pods available for purchase at the counter). When you first arrive to 10 Micro Drive you'll be facing the front of the building. Go to your left and around the side of the building to find the entrance toward the back. Also, it's a no shoes policy including adults so bring your socks! The bathroom was very clean too, which was very much appreciated. And someone walks through the place to pick up the toys and organize things once the kids go through. Lastly, around 12:45 the place was much quieter as people left for lunch and naps. So if you have a late napper like our little girl, it's an awesome time to be there because it's not as crowded! It's $10 per visit for one child, but you can also buy a 5 visit pass for $25. We were able to apply the $10 we paid when we first got there toward the $25 pass that I bought at the end of our visit because I know we will totally be going back there a lot this winter! read more

i highly recommend VinKari Safari for your child's next birthday party. I just had my daughter's 5th birthday and all we had to do was show up! The wonderful couple took care of everything for us. I can assure that we will be hosting another birthday party there in the future. read more

This place is truly a godsend in the winter. A place to let your kids run around, get out all that pent up New England frustration! That being said I found it to be a little bare bones, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but for the cost I was expecting a smidge more. They do have an inflatable bouncy house which is nice, a separate room for coats and bags, a lunch room, snacks available to purchase. read more

We brought our two lil nieces (both 2 years old) here on a rainy Saturday afternoon after our outdoor plans fell through. As expected, the place was pack around 12:30pm. I like how they have a lil snack station for emergency purchases, dining/snack area and private room for parties (there was one when we got there). Cost - $10 for the 1st kid and $5 for the second kid. Think it was reasonably priced. Love how they require everyone to take off their shoes before entering the play area. Keeping the place clean. They have two huge play areas filled with a moon bouncer, tons of slides, ride a cars, assorted toys, roller rides, big blocks and giant legos. The toddlers had fun running around freely on the cushioned floors. There were three smaller rooms with make play/believe items (cashier, salon, baby changing station and kitchen set) and train tables. As expected, they didn't want to leave when it was time. Definitely keeping this place on the list for indoor options. read more

Just had my son's 2nd birthday here and it was an absolute blast! First and foremost, the place is immaculate! I went in with white socks and left with the same white socks. So, so clean! There is tons of space and so many things to play on, in, under and with for all age groups. My son and all our guests had the best time! There is definitely no shortage of fun and entertainment for the little ones. The owners are fantastic! Doug went above and beyond to accommodate all our needs. We even requested a gluten free and dairy free pizza and he made it happen. His mom was there too, what a sweetheart! Love the feeling of a family run operation. I will absolutely be bringing my son back for playtime and can't wait to have more parties here. Highly recommend!!! read more

Updating my review since it is 4 years old. Still maintains well-deserved five star rating! Just got done hosting my daughter's fifth consecutive party at VinKari, she has loved this place that much. The owner Douglas is amazing and so perfect to work with. On top of the place just being super clean, bright, and inviting, they make hosting birthdays a snap. We love them. read more

VinKari Safari - Five years of birthdays at VinKari Safari! - Kids Activities Near Me - Woburn, Massachusetts

i just had my daughter's 5th birthday party here tonight and I cannot say enough good things! this is my youngest daughter of 3 and I wish I'd just had all their parties here every year!! they take care of everything you could possibly need, you just bring a cake- they take care of absolutely everything else! not to mention the fact that everyone said it was the best birthday party they've been to, with our private party having the run of the place. I would recommend having a birthday party here to anyone who wants to actually enjoy their child's party instead of being overwhelmed and running around like a maniac. 10/10! read more

I recently held a party here for my daughters 3rd birthday, and I'm so glad I did. Douglas and his team are great and very attentive. For starters, they have parking spots labeled for the birthday host, which was super convenient because the place was packed when we arrived, and my first thought was, "I hope we have parking close by" due to the fact that we had to carry stuff in, and it was raining. Right when we pulled into our parking spot, Doug came right out with a cart ready to help! Mind you we haven't even stepped foot inside, and he's already impressed me, lol. As we get inside, he ended up directing us to our party room and helping us get settled. He engaged in conversation with us, and also took time out to talk to our little one, and joke around a bit, which was extremely nice. As our guest arrived, Doug and his team greeted everyone and directed them in the right direction. I swear they didn't skip a beat, haha. My daughter was extremely excited about all the fun activities that were available. I won't get into detail but there are so many fun/cool things for a child to play with. Plus your child will be asleep by the time you arrive home, due to all the fun! I got a lot of positive feedback from my guest on how impressed they were with the place, and service. Overall, I would highly recommend this place. We arrived as strangers shaking hands, and we left as friends with hugs! This is such a nice family ran business. If you plan on hosting your child's birthday party here, you will not be disappointed. read more

This is a great place for kids! Clean, organized, friendly, lots and lots of different kinds of toys for little ones to play with. There's a big bounce house, car coaster, jungle gyms, slides, giant blocks... Brought our kiddo and his friends on his birthday and they had a fun time. It's affordable and seems like they have everything needed if you want to throw a party. I haven't been to enough play places to know how this measures up against others. But there is plenty of staff around. You can come in and out same day with their admission fee. I think it's a really good option, just wish it was a little closer so we could go more often. read more

We recently had our fourth birthday party here (with their party packages) and while there are many options in the greater Boston area, this is one we keep coming back to! They do everything for you so you can try to actually enjoy the party! The owners are great, very kind and you can tell they really care about making a safe and fun space for kids. Even pre-COVID the place was very clean and very well maintained. We recently added a new member to our family so we're happy to have more years at Vinkari Safari. I highly recommend it for free play or parties! 10 stars. :) read more

Just got back from VinKari Safari for a birthday and was so impressed with the place that I had to give them a review! It's very clean here and very noticeable. They have wipes and napkins in every room. The staff actually goes around and cleans up the toys. I left one room, came back later and the cars were all lined up again! I'm like, can you come do that at my house? There was a variety of things to do - I would say it's ideal for kids 1.5 - 5 years old. The party rooms were nicely setup with an in room trash and utensils in cans on the wall. The tables had long benches that were wide enough where I felt was safe enough for my 18 month old to sit without worrying about her falling backwards. My friend did the birthday package where she didn't have to make goodie bags because kids could pick the Melissa and Doug items from the wall. They ordered pizza and she was also able to bring in her own food. I also appreciated all the signs around the playspace. read more

We have had two birthday parties here, one before covid and one during. Both were amazing ! I love this place , it's perfect for kids.

We had my daughter's 5th birthday party and we're so glad we chose to celebrate her birthday here! It's simply the best place to have your child's party. Doug, and his team, were very accommodating, we brought our items 15 minutes til our start time, and they took care of everything and prepared private room so quickly. When our guests came in, they thought the place was so cool, some of them even wanted to come back in the future, and were also amazed on how huge the playspace was. A lot of them thought the idea of coming back, pay for 4 visits and get one free, was a great deal. When we had lunch in the private party room, the space was perfect for our party, we had 12-15 kids, and parents. The pizza that we ordered from their preferred vendor was great. Not only the kids liked it, but the parents loved it! I can't say enough about this place, they've really made my daughter's birthday so memorable. She's so happy she decided to celebrate here with her friends. Vinkari Safari is really the best place to celebrate your kids party, they're a very nice and accomodating staff, they make your day stress free and take care of EVERYTHING for you, and they make sure your kid and guests have a great time. Thank you so much Vinkari Safari! read more

This place is great and I can't believe there aren't more places in Boston like this. A huge indoor play area for kids to run around when it's too cold to play outside. The place was so clean and all of the toys were well taken care of. You go from room to room and each area has a different focus. The first room has cars a bouncy house and slides, the next area has more jungle gym stuff and those play kids roller coasters, then you go to another room that has tool benches and vanities and they have a whole area set up with to dry store items and then before you leave there is a train table are. Overall a bit expensive considering most people with kids can only really stay and hour or two but very well taken care of space and a wonderful thing to do when it's too cold or hot to play outside. read more

Love this space! It is suuuuper clean, big, and there is so many things for babies/kids to do! My 12 months old loved her visit. We are definitely coming back to this play space! We had a great experience there! read more

I came here today with my son and we had a blast. There are 5 rooms filled with toys and things to do. My son, who is 20 months old, really loved the Thomas trains and the tracks with hills on them. This place is great for kids of all ages: an awesome way to socialize and try out new toys too read more

We held our daughters second birthday party here this past weekend. What a blast! I'm a planner and arrived early to make sure everything was ready. The room was even better than I imagined! The team (a family run business) did a wonderful job from start to finish. They made my daughter and every child at the party feel special. The kids had a blast, the parents had an opportunity to chat, and I was stress free the entire time. Highly recommend VinKari Safari for a birthday party or fun play date. read more

5+ stars in my book! I have a 5 year old son and he has been going there for 2+ years now. He loves every section, tools and bounce house are probably his favorite. The place is very clean, organized, well staffed and super professional. Most of all, kids seem to all be having a good time. It was his B'day recently and we had him pick where he would like to celebrate it. Vinkari Safari was his top choice. We signed up and that experience was fantastic as-well. Again, so well organized. We had to do minimal outside of what they offer and every one of the kids there had a fun time ... hence all the adults had a satisfying time too. I would highly recommend VinKari Safari for some weekend fun and B'day parties. read more
