Wonderful experience my 8 year old and 5 year old loved it we like the concept of leaving the kids in the zones you can see them all the time. It's teaches spending and earning habits while having a good time. There also a toddler zone and great pizza and tacos to eat and desserts.
Highly recommended worth the price.
Highly recommended worth the price.
Wasted $150 and a day with the grandkids. Definitely not for kids under 6, as parents aren't allowed to go into the areas with their kids, and in the world we live in today, what parent allows kids out of eye/earshot? We were there for a whole 15 minutes, and every location we went to, we were told it was not open. Kids started crying in frustration, so we left. It is a good idea in theory, but not recommended at all for kids under 8. Our 3yo grandson was unable to participate in anything, and the toddler area was a broken, unmaintained joke. The 5yo was too short to do any of the activities he wanted to do, and his 2nd choices were closed or unavailable.
My 6 year old son was very excited to go, so I bought tickets. Then I read the reviews and wanted to cancel my tickets but they are non refundable. We went on a Tuesday (the week of Thanksgiving) when they first opened. We did not have to wait in line and walked right in. The attendant at the front briefly explained to us next steps. We decided to do the debit card instead of cash. It was a little dark in there and not many stations were open until about 30 minutes after opening, so that was a little frustrating. We did not have to wait long for any of the activities, and did about 4 in almost 2 hours. The concept is cute and nice and my son enjoyed himself. I don’t necessarily agree with parents having to pay since we do not get to participate or go in with our kids. It’s understandable not being able to go in so it’s not crowded. I think this place is geared more to ages 6+ but some activities little ones can do. Over all it was a good trip though. I wish some of the staff were a little more enthusiastic though
I’m literally standing here right now regretting every spending money on this. 50% of the attractions are closed at 12:30 on regular week day. To add insult to injury only four of staff members have been welcoming and engaging. The pilot was down right rude to my child. I’m starting to feel like this was a waste of money and time.
Such a fun place for kids! I love the variety of jobs for the kids to participate in. We came on a weekday so it wasn’t that busy and we got there early to avoid longer lines. There’s a small play area for smaller kids & there’s food & snacks available for purchase once inside. Overall, it was a fun experience that we’ll be doing again!
This looks like a really cool place. We have an almost 4 year old and a 5 year old. My husband and I took them and didn't realize that the 3 year old wouldn't be able to play any of the games. A few things about this visit were upsetting.
First, we were never told that the youngest couldn't participate in the activities. We were just thankful that there was a discount. The other disappointing thing was that adults are charged the full price to go watch their kids play. In what world would a 40-year-old couple go to a play world unless they had kids? Why do places like this charge adults to go, but give discounts to young kids who would like to be there and then not let them participate in the activities? It doesn't make any sense to me.
We asked for a refund and were given it. I'm just sad that we had to deal with not only the disappointment from our kiddos for leaving, but also the wasted time we spent driving there, parking and only to realize only 1 of the 4 of is world have any fun for the nearly $80 we spent.
Now... all of that said, we will likely go back, but the charging adults thing still annoys me. I would never go to a place like this unless I had kids, so... my thought is parents should get in FREE as a way of thanking them for bringing their kids in the first place!

Amazing!!! The kids loved this incredible place JUST FOR KIDS. They had a Epic time working for money and at the same time learning. They cooked pizza from scratch and they sure loved shopping with the money they earn. Not recommend for teenagers nor adults they charge to go in but you can’t do anything in there. It does take some few hours on the weekends for the kids to complete most of the activities. They also have a parents lodge that’s quite but anything for the kids. I definitely recommend this place for the KIDDOS.
