I had a mixed experience at the facility. While there were several engaging features, I noticed some areas that could benefit from improvements to ensure a safer and more enriching visit for everyone.
One of my main concerns was the bouncy pad. It appears that if children cannot easily reach the higher, air-filled section, the pad becomes flat and potentially dangerous. Unfortunately, my daughter slipped there, resulting in a minor injury to her head and nose. This design might need reevaluation to ensure that all children, regardless of their ability to reach the top, remain safe.
Additionally, the selection of building blocks was somewhat limited. For children who enjoy creative play, having a wider variety of building materials could greatly enhance their experience. It also seemed that sharing was not as encouraged as it could be, which sometimes hindered cooperative play among the kids and parents present.
The baby area was modest and felt a bit underwhelming compared to the other zones. Enhancing this area with more engaging, age-appropriate activities might make it a more attractive option for families with younger children.
The ninja area had potential, but I observed several instances of unsupervised children lingering after falls, even though the rules clearly specify that parental supervision is required. Strengthening the oversight in this area could help maintain both safety and the intended flow of activities.
Given the price of $12 per child, I felt that the overall experience did not quite match the cost. Unfortunately, based on my visit, I don't...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis is a really nice indoor playground in Woodbury. There are two play structures with slides and climbing walls/ladders, a big swing (like a tire swing, but more a disc than a tire), a fake turf area with soccer balls and hula hoops and cones, an obstacle course area, a two and under play area, foam building blocks, and a big "pillow" for jumping. There are also places to take a break, including a reading room and nursing rooms. My 2.5 year old was done after about an hour, but my 6 year old could've stayed all day. I'm glad that you can go in/out with your code and there's a pretty large area to sit and eat. I was able to take my younger child to Culver's while the older one stayed with a grandparent and we ate our food and then played for more time.
The only thing I don't like is that there are no staff there. When we were there today there was a kid who pretty clearly was just dropped off. He couldn't have been more than 6. He was an absolute menace. He was pushing kids and throwing their foam blocks and yelling at kids and adults alike. I encountered this kid in several different areas and he never had anyone with him. I just wish there was even one person on site to report these kinds of things to. Kids shouldn't be abandoned at an indoor playground for who knows how long, and without staff on site there's nothing stopping people from leaving their children there unattended. I hope...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWe've gone to both the Eagan location and the Woodbury location. The concept of the park is great but we won't be returning and don't recommend it for families with young toddlers/infants. We went to the Woodbury location on 12/13/24. Although there are signs with rules everywhere we saw too many people not following them. It made us feel uncomfortable. There were two bigger boys (unsupervised) tossing a football on the bounce pad with lots of little toddlers around. My son is 1 and so I had to take him away in case he got hit by the ball. Every single time my son wanted to play with the blocks in the blocks area there would be 1 or 2 kids playing with ALL of the blocks. The second time we tried playing a grandmother told me her grandson was playing with all of them (there has to be at least 50 blocks there). I had to tell my disappointed 1 year old that he couldn't play because the kid wouldn't share. The dining area had food crumbs on the tables and floor. This is disappointing because cleaning supplies are provided and people still don't clean up after themselves. We won't return since there are no staff to...
