Kids Empire Montclair — Attraction in Montclair

So.. I do agree with everyone that there place is clean. However, I went with my two year old son on a Saturday. Brave I know.. so needless to say it was packed. Walking in I was not sure what to expect. My son is active he ran in. Next thing I know he went down a small blue slide ( instead of going down the walkway like I had to) and he was already running to the playground. Moving around after in children in my way I couldn't get to him fast enough and he was already climbing up some party where you make your way through to the top? Next thing I know he gets trampled on. I also didn't like the slide that you use those plastic sleds. First of all if you are not riding with your kid and the love is building up behind you. Good luck you are stuck no one allows you the chance to walk down to meet your child at the end of the slide.. hence another opportunity for my son to run if without me. I also do not agree that you can see where your child is from all angles cause you can't! I ended up going in the playground with him and I was disappointed at the entrance some or mostly all of these small tiny entrances that this place had. I woke up with bruises and bumps. The toddler area was not enough to keep my son preoccupied and the way it's set up that if they use the slide to get into the ball pit.. not good.. it took my son a few minutes to understand the cover to the entrance.. also it being Saturday the lights dimmed so they could play music which prolonged my son getting into the ball pit because he didn't understand what was going on. But all through this lights down time there was two kids who got hurt. Later on in the evening I witnessed a child get hot in the face and was bleeding everywhere! Never have I been to a place where I see so many injuries! The only way I will be going back is if I just have my nice year old daughter by ourselves. Because my son had fun but the bigger playground is not made for his age and the toddler side was not...

This place is great for kids however the front ladies working there are not. I don't know if my family were the only ones who experienced this today or there were others but these 2 ladies, the chubby and a bit skinny, ones picked on us. THEY WERE VERY RUDE AND ILL-MANNERED! I came in last and needed to enter the premises and the skinny, short hair lady asked me rudely, where my receipt was and if I had socks without letting me answer back and kept repeating her question as if I wasn't understanding her. So instead, I went out and sat outside to maintain my composure. The moment I went back, the fat lady asked the same question. I said my husband's inside and reprimanded, take note REPRIMANDED me to call him. The way she talked and asked me was so rude and cannot even say please. My husband came up to me, showed the receipt and we said we're going to get socks and she instantly said you have go buy somewhere else without any apologies or whatsoever. Third time, I went back with socks, they did the same thing, rolling their eyes on me and smirking every time. When I finally got in, that fat lady kept looking at me, rolling her eyes and giggling like she wanted to start an issue and cause me to rage. I think we were the only asian and white family at that time and they chose to picked on us. My husband just made me calm and convinced me not to take photos of them and speak to the manager. Later, I saw the lady went to the restroom and quickly changed her work shirt to gray t-shirt. She's already off duty. They are working in a kids' environment and at least be apologetic or ask nicely. They don't deserve to work there. If they don't like their...

LOVE this place! My 8 year old nephew, 5 year old niece, and 6 month old son absolutely loved this place! Such a great environment for kids to get unplugged from video games, tv, tablets etc. Nice place to cool off in this summer heat and we were there so long I didn’t realize 3 hours had passed!! $15 per kids 12 months and up and two free adult entries. Whoever complains about prices should stay home if they’re on a budget... they do have snacks and their version of a happy meal but I do agree there is a lot of junk food. If you don’t want to purchase anything you can step out and eat somewhere else then re enter at no additional charge! TO THE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TODDLER ZONE

I DO NOT want your hyper 2 or 3 year old around my 6 month old while in the ball pit. I’m sure you wouldn’t like someone older kicking balls at your child if it was the other way around. Have some respect and go play with your child on the bigger kid side. They have plenty of stuff for you to do even little motorcycles for them to ride. And yes the bigger electrical motorcycles DO require 1 token which can be purchased for $1 which is reasonable and like I said if you’re on a budget just don’t go out or stay home. Maybe the park is a better option for anyone complaining about the prices.

Super clean and the staff is always on it as far as cleaning so that’s a plus! One thing I didn’t like was the younger girl in the front in a black shirt (I’m assuming manager) she had short black hair and had a NASTY attitude. Guy in a neon shirt and other girl in a pink shirt were super friendly and always smiling.

We will be coming back to play...
