    Balloons
    Katie M.

    We get my daughters birthday balloons from there every year! This storefront is so cute, you're bound to find a cute baby or little kid gift. My daughter always loves looking at the accessories and clothes. The play place is adorable and clean, too!

    If I could I would give 0 stars. I visited this place back when my daughter was 5 and my son was 1. They love it then. Today, we decided to pay a visit. This time with my daughter (8), two sons (3)(1). We also invited little friends. One of those other friends was also (8.) We get there and they turned us away. Cold, no. They didn't let us stay even after explaining we had droved from far away and all the children were ready to play. They mentioned it was listed on their website that the play area is only for 5 and under. I go to their website and if you scroll all the way to the bottom you see something that says "modern play cafe for children 5 & younger." It does not say you will be turned away if you have older children. I mean if you scroll up to the rules. No where in there does it say older siblings will not be allowed. I left with little ones crying and a 8 year not being able to understand why she wasn't allowed.

    This place is cute and nice in theory, but not worth the stress for me as a parent. There's a large balloon arch in perfect reach of the toddlers playing here. Is management / ownership not aware that some kids are allergic to latex, and that latex is a huge choking hazard? As I've been here for 10 minutes, two balloons have come off the arch. I've handed them to the person on staff here, who simply chuckled. Also, any caregiver should know that in order to use the space, you have to sign a form that gives rights to any photos taken of your child to be used on their social media. We will likely not return.

    Waterlemon kids is a super cute spot! We've played here, shopped here and most recently hosted a party here. Every interaction has been 100%. When I shopped here, I asked Nina (the owner) if she had a specific item (a hard to find back to school flag) she had 2 left and set one aside for me. The party we hosted was originally canceled on my behalf last minute due to my child having an illness and having to go the the ER. Nina communicated with me and let me reschedule my party for months later with no penalties or extra fees. I appreciated her understanding and will always recommend Waterlemon to anyone! The party was a great success and everyone kept commenting on what a gem Waterlemon is. Check it out!

    We hosted our son's first birthday at Waterlemon and had a wonderful experience. I'm singing Nina's praises! From the minute we booked our party she was there to help us--offering up ideas and services to make us and our guests happy. I went with the "sweet soirée" party package to save a little money and diy pieces of our party. Nina helped direct me to our party theme, inspired by all the adorable Meri Meri party supplies they have in the store. And as a party host I received 10% off. I also added the unlimited coffee and tea service. When it came time for our party Nina was there to lend a hand setting up, and as someone who's big on ideas up short on time, she totally came through for me! She set our kids' table absolutely beautifully! She knew what I was going for and executed it brilliantly; better than I could have! Our guests were impressed with Waterlemon and everything I already love about it--clean, beautiful, stylish space filled with fun, classic, imaginative toys and play space. The kids partied and had a blast! They were occupied so the adults could have some time to talk, but parents also enjoyed the space with their kids. We had great grandparents with us and they loved being able to watch the kids play and be a part of the party while still being comfortably seated. All in all great place to have a party. I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

    One of the cutest kids indoor play areas we've visited. We've been here for story time and open play. The past times we've visited my kids have had a great time! The front of the shop is a store front with so many cute items for kids. The owner has always been so incredibly nice & sweet! Highly recommend!

    I recently had my sons 2nd birthday here and it was absolutely perfect! The staff was super friendly and welcoming when I booked and his party went so smoothly. The owner was so nice and helpful and was actually there to assist me with the details. The package was exactly what I needed for my party and I can't wait to come back for story time and open play. My son loved all the kitchen sets and the ballon drop is a must have.

    Next up for the Easter bunny!

    This is the cutest play place I've ever seen! We went here for the Easter bunny with my niece. We had to wait in a long line but that was expected. They let us take our time once we got to the photo op and there was a little gate to keep it sectioned off. The gifts and merchandise here are soo cute. I can't wait to come back with my niece and have another play date. It's extremely clean and organized as well.

    Sugar Bar

    We hosted our sons birthday at Waterlemon after many successful play dates at the space. We love Waterlemon so much! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Nina was so attentive and helpful during the entire process. We added the Sugar Bar to our party package and I think it was the best decision I've ever made. Saved me from buying a cake and helped fill those goodie bags with the leftover candy. The space is adorable, CLEAN, and overall so much fun for the kiddos. I would give 10 stars if I could.

    See all

It is a little pricy depending what you're interested in. When we went, lots of the booths featured Christmas decorations. I fell in love with a beautiful retro Santa.

Everything I looked at was in good condition, especially considering how old some of the items were. I was hoping to see more vintage clothes and housewares, so I'll have to go back after the holidays to see what they put out. Staff was friendly and helpful. I'll be back soon I'm sure.

There was a broken doll on the floor, and one of the staff members kept following me and asked if I was the one who broke it. I told them no, but then two staff members continued following me around, demanding that I pay for it and threatening to call the police. Their behavior was very intimidating, and I ended up crying in front of them while asking them to stop treating me that way. I truly felt profiled and discriminated against during the entire situation. Afterward, I posted a Google review and tried many times to contact the manager, but my calls never resolved anything. Eventually, their lawyer contacted me and asked me to remove the review, saying they would have the staff go through training. However, that did not resolve the harm that was done, because the experience left me traumatized.

I wasn't really looking for anything specific, but I had some returns and wanted to casually browse around to try to find some deals. I didn't get any Starbucks, but that's definitely the fanciest Starbucks in a Target I've ever seen in my life. Bathroom: The bathroom is located in the front of the store towards the middle near the checkout area. The bathroom was very clean! Always love a clean public bathroom! Customer Service: The staff were friendly. I went when it wasn't busy and didn't even have to wait in line. The cashier was friendly and provided excellent customer service. Merchandise: This Target location had a lot of great inventory. Lately, I've been shopping in the clearance sections at Targets and I always find a really good deal on clothing items in particular. Overall Experience: Overall, I had a great shopping experience at Target at the Hodgkins location. I totally recommend this location. It's towards the end of the plaza, so you can't miss it and there are so many other good stores in the plaza as well. I hope this review helps Target in the Hodgkins, IL location, Target in general, & its current and future customers. Have an amazing day!
