And big kids plow through 3 year Olds like nothing! My wife says they have items that change put every so often, but when I was there the had 2 slides a hot air balloon slide and a climbing thing. Super soft so kids don't get hurt. All great for kids 5/6 and under. Please don't eat inside of here... and keep an eye on your kids in here. Please. It's a great place to unwind for adults as kids run around like crazy! It's free and it's usually pretty crowded! Good luck with finding a seat inside lol!

I really wanted to love this place for my daughter, but I just didn't. I think the photos and…read morevideos are bit misleading, but that might just be me being overly picky. I love the idea of Star Park! There aren't too many indoor-play parks for open-play at a reasonable price where the majority of the park feels like it's geared towards younger toddlers. Our girl really enjoyed herself! This kid friendly spot had a space theme to it. She especially loved sitting inside the space ship areas and dancing to whatever kids program was playing at the time. She did go down the slide of the younger toddler area, but she's still too young to fully enjoy that section. She also loved "climbing" the rock wall aka dada just lifting her up high. The one thing that REALLY freaked me out about this place: there's a room that is supposed to give off the vibe of a sandbox, substitute the sand for some sort of pellet. I don't know what the pellet was, but I saw a handful of kids, EATING whatever this box was filled with. If you can imagine mom anxiety I had, waiting for my child to want to join in and eat this mystery pellet. Luckily, we did a good enough job keeping her away from the area, since I wasn't all that jazzed about the potential outcome. Overall, I just found the place to be a little dirty. Additionally, the location in the mall is eh. That being said, as a first-time Mom visiting this type of space, I have nothing to compare it to! I just have a cleanliness standard that Star Park did not meet. I don't think we will be returning unless our daughter is invited to a party there.

We had my son's second birthday party here. We were greeted by Haven, who was very energetic and…read morenice. A lot of the guests for our party arrived late and the employees were mindful of this and allowed us to have our pizza/cake time after our designated time. We appreciated them extending that kindness. Our room was decorated nicely and I appreciated not having to add much to their standard decor. The overall play space is decent, albeit, it's definitely on the smaller side. Our party room was meant for 10 children and 10 adults, but it was very tight and several of the adults didn't feel comfortable coming in as it felt too cramped. For the price they charge, they should definitely allow kids to continue to play after the 2 hour party slot. They expect another $22 per child after your $500 2-hr party... on top of that, the area remains open to the public and it gets way too crowded, especially when you have little ones. It costs about 2k to reserve the entire space. We were fortunate that it wasn't too busy at the time we had our party but I wouldn't bank on that being typical experience for this place. All in all, the staff was friendly and helpful, the space was fun for small children, but definitely way too small and priced high.

Pricing is reasonable and they have subscription packages available. They are also very allergy friendly if you need a safe space for a child with life-threatening allergies.

I really cannot say enough great things about Jumpers. We visited there once a few months ago and…read morewere immediately impressed with 1) how SUPER FRIENDLY the owners and staff are, and 2) how CLEAN it is. Based on that experience, we decided to have our son's birthday party there. Our son's 4th birthday party was today and it was PERFECT. From booking the party with Paul through the end of the day today, everything was so easy. When we arrived for the party with our kids, cupcakes, party favor bags, etc., two staff members greeted us with smiles at our car in the parking lot, wished our son a happy birthday and immediately took all of the items from us and carried them inside to set them up in the party room. When we arrived inside, we were greeted by Julia who could not have been more sweet or helpful. She explained the whole party itinerary to us, showed us a special bin to store our groups' shoes and said they would take care of everything. Shortly before lunchtime, we were approached by Julia who confirmed the pizza order and went off to take care of it. When it was time for pizza and cake, we were taken upstairs to our party room which was nicely set up and waiting for our group. Our party attendant Nicole went out of her way to be kind and helpful to everyone, making sure everyone had plenty to eat and drink, lit the candles and served the cupcakes, handed out all of the party bags, packed up all of the gifts and leftover food and carried them to our car... everything. Everything was taken care of just as they said it would be. While we were leaving, there was a terrible car accident out on West Chester Pike in front of the complex. Emergency personnel arrived in the scene and thankfully it appeared no one was seriously injured, but I saw Paul the owner walk out to the street to check on the situation and to offer bottles of water to the victims and people on the scene. This is the type of people they are-genuinely caring and kind to everyone. We have been to many birthday parties at different kids' venues in the area, but we have never had such a personalized experience as we did at Jumpers. If you are looking to support a local, family owned business with genuinely kind, hardworking people, I cannot recommend Jumpers highly enough. I will continue to support this business and will recommend them to everyone I know. They are a class act and the type of people everyone should be happy to have as neighbors in our community.

Private Birthday Party for my 5-year old was a great success!…read more We rented the entire facility out for my son's birthday a few weeks ago (highly recommended for a large group and the ability to bring your own food & drink in) and Danielle the owner, and her team, did a great job and were on top of everything. We had many specific requests, they made everything a breeze, the facility felt cleaned and turned over prior to our event, and everything was set up as requested. My son and the kids (as well as adults) had a great time, they helped us package everything on departure (leftover food, drink, gifts, etc.) and they did it all with a smile and great attitude. If only other businesses would take the same pride Jumpers does! The staff, the mgmt team, the facility, all top notch and perfect for what we needed it to be. We will continue to be loyal customers and highly recommend them whether it's to bring your child for a few hours, or throw a private/semi-private event.

All the kids really enjoyed themselves and parents didn't seem like they needed to go home and drink so all around a good day. If you have young kids and are looking for a place to throw a party check this place out!

I know with indoor children's places it's hard to fully avoid germs since kids will be kids and sneeze and slobber. But just wanted to warn parents of this possible reality of visiting any indoor play gyms. And to the owner - please ramp up your sanitizing frequency. The pros : It's pretty big length-wise. There's 2 ball pits (one large and one small) and lots of tunnels overhead. There's also a big bucket style merry go round. The floors are all padded and well kept. These seem new. There's an interactive overhead projector that displays games in back room The cons : the pirate ship is kind of old and needs some new paint, the plastic bubbles on the walls are crusty. Tickle game is not really responsive and is too high for the little toddlers to reach even with step stool. The stage/camera area isn't very fun. Piano is super old and some keys don't work. Overall I would still give this place a good solid 4 stars. The kids seem to enjoy the ball pits enough to spend an hour.

They also have one sensory room and one game room. There is an area with tables and seats for parents to sit and kids to eat. This place is a good place to host a private birthday party for young kids. They also have a nursing room for you to use. They have a parking lot right outside so no need to deal with street parking.

Under new ownership , this sometimes tricky to find space is now called PUMP IT UP- Though it can be difficult to see the signage from the street, once you find the location, you will not be disappointed. The facility is CLEAN and welcoming for active children. The lobby is enticing with it's bright colors, life size connect 4 game, and a fun spin wheel to have the kids act out silly scenarios, for the kids to use while they wait for the bounce to start. There is a space to sit and watch a short instructional video prior to jump time. Once that is out of the way it's off to the bounce rooms. There are two large bounce rooms full of inflatables. The children spend time in each room under the guidance of the employees. ( BRING SOCKS) There is plenty to keep the kids busy. I do recommend this for children who are steady on their feet and comfortable climbing, as there really isn't too much to do for the smaller tots. On my way out I read about parents night out. That looks like something to check out, next time! * this did not get a 5 star review because although we had a blast, I'm not 100% satisfied with the staff who managed the rooms while we jumped. We had a group of 3 people. 2 males and female. The 3 were much more attentive to each other, dodgeball, and inflatable basketball than they were the children bouncing.

As a concept, Pump It Up is fine enough. It's like a warehouse, with 2 large rooms of huge…read moreinflatable obstacles. The kids get to bounce and have fun, and it's a good time had by all. As a BUSINESS, these people have A LOT of room for improvement. We just had our daughters 4th birthday here, and let me count the ways in which things could have been so much better. First, THEY. DO. NOT. PICK. UP. THE. PHONE. And don't bother leaving a message, they won't call you back. I literally must have called them about 15 times, and they answered ONCE, and called me back ONCE. They are a NIGHTMARE to communicate with. Secondly, if you DO get a hold of them, prepare to be nickel and dimed to death; or more accurately, 50 dollar to 100 dollared to death, as this place is EXPENSIVE. You want to bring your own decor? $10 bucks. Put stuff on the walls with tacky putty only? $5 Want them to drop balloons? $50. Fill up balloons? $5 a balloon. There is absolutely no outside food allowed, (except your own cake, confusingly), but you can bring your own food, for a $75 dollar fee. About their food; you get 2 kid cut slices of pizza per kid, and 2 pitchers of juice or soda. Oh, you want water because your kids don't drink sugary drinks? Too bad. They refused to give us TAP. WATER. They straight up said "no." They said we could buy water for the kids, $1 a bottle. A CASE of 48 bottles is $4; you want to charge me 3x more for 1/3 as much?! (Also, you can't bring in a case of water.) Is your kid diabetic? Celiacs disease? Sensory issues? Kosher? Tough crap. You eat their food, or pay the $75 to bring yours. We ordered a hoagie tray from them for the adults, and it was SEVENTY TWO DOLLARS, for 3 wawa-esque hoagies. I've never felt more ripped off in my life. THEN, they automatically add 18% gratuity, (and a $40 photo package), but they will take it off, if in front of the entire staff and all of your guests, you state that you want it off. (They settle the bill in the main room as everyone is leaving.) The place is fine, if a little hard to find, and a little rough around the edges, but having a party here is something I'm glad that I'll never have to do again. Our bill was almost EIGHT. HUNDRED. DOLLARS. That's for 2 hours. It's a great racket for them. I recommend for open jump, but unless your pockets are deep, and you don't mind wrapping everything up in one phone call, then don't have a party here.

With scenic walking trails, an outdoor classroom, day camps and a small indoor animal habitat, Briar Bush is a great spot for small children, couples on a date, or anyone looking for a brief respite from the urgency of the modern world. With free admission for locals and a small fee for out-of-towners, the preserve is accessible to all patrons provided that they are able to walk down some wooded trails that circle through the admittedly short walking routes. The centerpiece of the trails is a picturesque, secluded pond with benches for sitting and an interactive sign with information on the local fauna and flora. The indoor animal habitat has a small gift shop, pamphlets on upcoming events and information on other parks in the area, and several interesting animals such as a blind possum named Odin, a bearded lizard named Karl, and several other unique turtles and reptiles. All of Briar Bush can be walked through in an hour or so, but the low admission, interactive nature events and scenic walking trails will have you wanting to return again soon.

But, on a more positive note, they have some animals that you can pet (when they are being presented by a lecturer), including rabbits, rats, and snakes, plus a turtle. In fact, now, as I am typing this, I remember coming here as a kid with school and Cub Scouts and my family as well, and I remember Boo the Rat (R.I.P!) and I remember a turtle who came to Briar Bush after being fed dog food by its owner. Eww. Bottom line, presentation is everything. One thing that I personally don't mind but that wildlife and some other visitors are probably irritated by is the fact that SEPTA's Warminster Line runs behind Briar Bush with a train going by every so often.
