This was our second visit to Imagine U and our kids had so much fun. Thanks to Valley PBS Family Circle, we enjoyed 2 hours of fun. The entry was easy and quick. The kids love that they can have semi-freedom. We know there is only 1 way in and out so we can be a little lax on keeping an eye on them. We stayed more. in the toddler area, which is right by the door, so we can watch and observe people. All of the exhibits are so interactive that the kids love playing and don't realize they are learning too. I love that it teaches agriculture to them, and also, the musical items are great for kids who love to play music. I love that this is all hands-on, and they can play to their hearts content. The price is really not that bad as most of it is indoors in the cool air. The staff also really keeps it clean. We love that they have the bins for the contaminated toys, and we saw a number of staff members come and sanitize the toys before putting them back out for play. They are constantly coming and wiping down the counters and rails. this is a fantastic place for kids to age 12 or so. Our 10yo said he was too grown, but when he saw his siblings playing, he jumped right in. They also sell drinks, small toys, and souvenirs. We were allowed to take in our water bottles. Not sure about food...but our kids would have no time to eat till...
Read moreI took my 4 grandkids aged 5 and under, along with my mom and niece. The staff was very friendly and worked hard to keep the place clean and sanitized as much as you can with little kids. We were there for about 2 hours and pretty much played at all the stations that were age appropriate for each of the 4 grandchildren.
Overall, this is a wonderful place to take young children. This is about the 5th time I have taken my grandchildren to this Imagine U, and each time was excellent.
Two items that I would suggest; please have your TV monitor working at the giant tree fort/slide in the middle of the place. There is no way I can see where the kids are other than when I had to climb up and see! I am not at an age where I want to bend and climb up trying to see where the kids are. The screen use to work, please fix it, or turn it on ! Secondly, it would be nice to have the prices up so that I can easily see how much I am paying! Better yet, have a grouchier available so that I can look over the cost of a membership, or any type of discounts available! Sometimes the staff is stretched thin as they are running around cleaning and monitoring ( which is a good thing) I just would like to see something up and tells me the...
Read moreTook my toddler to this place my mom friend’s raved about and have regretted not taking her sooner. What an AMAZING experience. There’s so much to do, so much to see, so much engagement. And in this unbearable summer heat it’s a GLORIOUS escape from it as the AC BE WORKING. There’s between 12-15 stations each with its own theme ranging from rescue vehicles, to fantasy, to outdoor play with trains and cars, slides, climbers, a room the children can just paint on all the walls, dress up and music. There’s even a little place for the little littles (under the age of 4) to play that has a little gate to keep them corralled in. They offer walk in tickets, or purchasing tickets online ahead of time and even some membership programs for frequent flyers. There’s water bottle filler stations, a place to cubby diaper bags, and a gift shop that obviously goes to a great cause. They have a station for moms to breastfeed with some privacy and changing places in both gender bathrooms. This is a GREAT place to take your kid if you want to not sweat to death while keeping an...
