I brought my niece and nephew (five year old twins!) here a few weeks ago. I was not too sure what…read moreto expect but I had heard good things about the place and it seemed like a good idea for occupying two energetic children for two hours on a rainy day! The building looks amazing from the outside, very impressive architecture and its distinctiveness is reflected inside the building once you enter. It cost us €34 for two five year olds and two adults which I thought was a bit much, I didn't expect the adult and child price to be the same. Adults are encouraged to go in and play with their children which is great but there are attendants walking around keeping an eye on the children also (for when you want a rest!). The "museum" is laid out in different areas, there is a kitchen, a construction area, a TV studio, an art room and lots more... running through the centre of the building is a climbing frame which was the biggest attraction for my niece and nephew, it certainly provided exercise for the parents that were running up and down the stairs trying to keep track of their climbing kids! The boy and girl I brought also loved dressing up in the TV studio area, they even got their faces painted after a bit of a wait. Although there were lots of children in the building I never felt that any one area was too crowded which was good, although there were queues for things such as the face painting. There is an area that is provided for babies but in my opinion the section is very sparse and did not have anything that would entertain a very young child for very long. I only saw one baby there during my visit and he didn't look too happy! I don't think that Imaginosity would hold the interest of older children either, I think a child over the age of eight or so would get bored fairly quickly because these days children I know above the age of eight are not as interested in "playing house" or "make believe" and that is what Imaginosity is all about. There is a restaurant where you can get some refreshments but I found it to be very expensive, if I were to go again I would definitely bring my own drinks and snacks for the children. All in all it is an entertaining place for children (it even disguises a bit of education in fun), it is unique and I do not know of any other place like it in Dublin. In my opinion it is suitable for children between the ages of three and eight but outside of these ages you are wasting your money. Also I would maximise the value for my money by only having one adult for a group of children rather than an adult per child like we did. Oh, and don't wear heels!

Absolutely scandalous that the difference in price between a one year old who is walking compared…read moreto a one year old who isn't walking is 5 euro. It's 2 euro for a child who isn't walking, and seven euro for a child who is? Tell me how that makes any sense? On top of that, you are not allowed bring in any food or drink from outside, yet they charge close to 3 euro for a scone. There is no one monitoring the areas to ensure the children are age appropriate and so the one year old accompanying me was bombarded my big 3- 5 year olds in a space that said under 3 only. Not worth the money.

Just the place itself has worn out especially upstairs area. Total wreck or dumpster I'd say. The annoying thing right of the bat was a sign up requirement. You got to go on a computer and enter your and your child's personality information, contacts, address. I think it should be (or is?) illegal. Going your and kid's name if fine, but the rest nah. Major annoying thing inside is this horrific alarm sound. I thought there was something wrong. Maybe fire or other emergency. Apparently that sound is for happy birthday and such celebration announcements. Seriously, get rid of that. Place is not too spacious so can get crowded. They do good job with serving food and all sorts of cakes. Not sure if you can buy them there or need to bring your own.

The reason is of course safety (There are legitimate safety concerns that the kids and their parents should be well aware of). It is also very much convenience for them. They insist that only their instructors can supervise kids. They conveniently leave the kids times to downtime at their gym. If they want to be seen as a bouldering gym that's keen to introduce people of all ages to the sport, they are falling well short. Really disappointed as they are close and they space looks great.

I wouldn't mind that if entry ticket was lower, but to pay €22.50 for 2 adults and 1 toddler and then pay up €8+ for this and season hat is bit insane IMHO. But I see the good side. If you just get in and set yourself in the main playground kids can have fun for several hours with no extra cost. Signs at the outdoors cafeteria says no food to be consumed that is not purchased from the premises. But staff was looking through the fingers as I say and some families had some fruits and sandwiches brought. So did we. I wouldn't mind paying for food, but that thing is designed to rip you off. €3 for a 3 square inches of biscuit cake. You get free tea or coffee per ticket. Coffee was horrible, better get tea. Knowing these bad things would make your experience better if you brought your own snacks and food, maybe even tea/coffee in a thermos flask. I will defo return here on a sunny day.
