Nutrien Wonderhub — Attraction in Saskatoon

Great for toddlers, best oddly when nice outside and mid weekdays but bit pricey for multiple adults to watch one toddler play (debate to have your second grown up aka supervisor free as grown ups keep roughians in check!). Weekends get busy and bit ROUGH around edges for the preschool kids who would otherwise enjoy most, elbowed out by under supervised school aged kids.

TODAY ADDED one star (up to 4) as they have finally re added SOME hand sanitizer since my last visit (vs goofy approach for couple years requiring kids to go into single use bathrooms to wash hands between myriad activities... would be even BETTER if more hand sanitizer stations + foam!) I suggest dispenser at entry to every discrete area.

GREAT for toddlers to maybe age 6? I like the net, but big kids get bored with repeat visit. The climbing net is fun as first time activity up to age 12 (please supwrvise your 12 year old with little kids!). First time in Saskatoon? Fun for the whole family!

Worth PASS if younger kids, or ONE TIME VISIT if out of town and have never been, your 7 to 10 year old will like once!

But for winter/weekend waits for no reason. Parking frustrations in summer. Cost and my bored 8 year old ... I just don't like this place as a parent as much as we did 4 years ago

NOTE Great mainstreet kids play area, dress up, stage, pretend areas... but couldn't get picture of the best under 6 areas as would include other...

Was there for the advertised "eggcellent" colour egg hunt for the kids, it was advertised on their website as free but we were charged for the admission but we did not bother, we found some of the eggs which were described by the front desk guy as clear colored and so my excited kids started looking for it, we found 4 of it but upon leaving we were approached not so nicely by a lady of asian decent that we were not supposed to take it. Confused we approached the front desk and were told we were supposed to do something like color it or whatever but we were not given any instructions in the first place upon admission when we already told the guy that we were there for the egg hunt event. We were even told to put it back by the guy as we still have time as it was almost closing luckily another staff approached and said she was taking it back for us. My kids were heartbroken as they were hoping for something from the egg hunt but instead we ended up in a state of confusion and frustration. Everyone knows what a simple egg hunt is and we did not expect a not so pleasant customer service experience...

Wow! This place is amazing. We wished we had known how great it was as we would have allocated at least a half day to it.

The main area is set up into different play centres such as a flower shop, kitchen, workshop, ambulance, etc. There is a room to one side for ages 0-3 that was fantastic. Huge, clean space where my 10 month old could roam freely and find toys. There was a bucket to place toys that children had placed in their mouths to be disinfected.

The back area had an area full of swinging balls, climbing webs, etc. that looked very fun but unfortunately was at capacity when we were there.

The basement had a fake mine simulation that was so cool. The kids dress up in safety gear and enter a fake mine complete with vehicles to work on (they could actually remove bolts, tires, batteries!) and a conveyor belt system with fake potash to play with. It was awesome! My 3 year old would have stayed all day.

The basement also had a very large craft area and a magnetic wall to create and rearrange a ball drop obstacle.

Can't wait to visit this place again! Saskatoon parents are very lucky to...
