The museum of Meadow Farm here behind Crump Park is a lovely example of rural farm life in circa 1860. It's well-preserved and has distinct architectural significance of middle class living in that time period. The outbuildings are also well-maintained and the grounds are nicely manicured. At times there are festivals here where folks dress in period costumes and demonstrate candle making, basket weaving, etc. and a blacksmith quarters. There are also animals dwelling in the barns and pastures of this natural living farm. They have many activities and historic events, including a history of "Gabriel's Rebellion". There is usually a big July 4th celebration and other calendar events. This is a wonderful family park as there's lots of trails, picnic areas, a lake and other amenities. Don't miss touring this beautiful park!

I'm my opinion, this is the all-around best kids place in town! This place is affordable, compared…read moreto the competition, and it h! as an excellent setup for fun. You can easily spend the entire day, and it won't break the bank, plus it has the advantage that you know exactly how much you'll spend on advance. However, it is very annoying to get started if you fail to realize that all adults in the party must do a waiver. Please be sure to do it online first. Even then, however, sometimes it isn't easy for them to find it. I love the tons of options--giant slides that actually go super fast, tons of crawling and climbing, and even spinning options, and even a nice giant Lego area with tons of Legos for multiple kids to do massive builds at once. A cool, smaller scooter slide on metal rollers, and even an Astro turf grassy area with a soft soccer ball. You have pretty good visibility inside the play areas from the outside, besides you'd have to walk over to the lego.area in the back. There are tons of tables, and plenty of clean bathrooms. I've never had an issue, but I imagine lockers fill up on weekends, but they're free, as they should be. Saturday's are a zoo because of large groups for parties, but weekdays are very nice. Pros: One flat price for child and two adults to come and go all day Great food options very nearby Tons of options for fun included in price Excellent place for kids who love climbing, soccer, or Legos (giant Lego area on bottom level Separate little kid only area with ball pit for families with kids in multiple developmental stages. Cons: Terrible for birthdays due to no outside food (including cakes) policy and no real food options beyond small snacks Always issues with lockers for personal item storage Apathetic staff (though still helpful) Almost no food options, which could be a huge plus, if they allowed outside food, but they don't. Not everything is included, but so much is that it's not a huge deal. The cars look like they'd be included but arent The no shoes bathroom policy is disgusting, but I believe it recently changed. No membership option, but fair prices that are manageable even without one.

A really neat place, especially on a hot summer day…read more Well, this was our first visit to Kids Empire. However, my 5 and 3-year-old grandsons were pros. They played here earlier in the year with their parents. Today was a blazing hot day, and we wanted to have a nice day with the boys, so we chose to come here. The place is really neat. Large jungle gym type thing that kept my boys running for a full two hours. I mean running nearly nonstop. Now I will say parents/guardians need to watch their rug rats. On this contraption, there are a couple of areas where a kid could get hurt. But you kinda have to know your kid and have the ability to say "Don't you dare." But overall a safe playtime. As for the location: one small challenge is that the door and the counter are close. Which means it can be tight in that area as folks pay, take off their shoes, sign their waivers, and attempt to wrangle their herd. They give you containers for shoes and there are a few combination lockers available. No charge. There are tons of tables and chairs and I saw several birthday parties going on. There is some food offering here but not a meal. I don't think I'd plan on eating lunch here. There are plenty of sugar boost items though, candy and ice cream. Prices weren't that bad. Now not really the fault of the management but some kids are nuts (lol) and sadly some caregivers are not watching their borderline feral children. So again watch yours. With this said, I was shocked not to see staff (like a lifeguard at the beach) attempting to watch over the place. The location seemed clean, despite the 150 kids running around. So again: nice indoor play place, not many decent food options(no outside food allowed), watch your kids, and have a great time. I'm confident we will be back.

The General Manager, Jeremy Payne, was exceptional in ensuring that every child had a wonderful time. We had 121 per-registered children, with approximately nine additional children arriving later at the facility. Despite our large group, Mr. Payne made sure we had everything we needed, and the entire event ran smoothly. His customer service was outstanding, and it was evident that the staff follows his leadership well. Everyone was friendly, organized, and committed to making our visit enjoyable. Most importantly, the children truly enjoyed themselves and had an amazing time. Thank you, Mr. Payne and the entire Surge team, for providing such a memorable experience. I highly recommend Surge to anyone visiting Richmond, Virginia. We look forward to visiting again! Kimberly A Clark
