Looking for something to do with your toddlers, preschoolers, or kids up to around age 8? Polkadot…read morePlayhouse is set up for hours of fun. It's an indoor play space, with several different options for entertainment. There's an area full of huge foam building blocks for building structures. There's a craft space with all kinds of different crafts to do, such as mask-making, card decorating, etc. There's a dough space with rollers and cutters. There are tables for trains, tables for building blocks (like Lego). There's a huge kitchen pretend space with lots of food and appliances and the like. And then, there is a huge indoor climbing structure, complete with rope ramp up, a big curling tube slide down, and all kinds of interlocking tubes. If that's a little intimidating, there's a smaller structure for smaller kids, too. There's a place for eating. You can bring in your own stuff, or they sell really inexpensive snacks ranging from chips and the like to applesauce and yogurt. It was a good mix of healthy and otherwise, including lots of bottled water, etc. PPH can host your kid's birthday party, and they really set up a great event. I attended a birthday party there for a 3 year old girl, and it was ROCKING! I'm sure all the kids slept well. The place is set up well for parents, such that you don't have to hover over your kids all the time for fear of them wandering off or being stolen, and such that you can relax a little bit. The owners are wonderful and friendly, with that perfect mix of non-intrusive but still attentive. They keep things tidy and the crafts refreshed. Oh, did I mention that the place is incredibly clean and bright and new-feeling? It's not a dingy mall spot. So, if you're looking for something different than a fast food playground, this place is great. Stay as long as you want for $8 a kid (parents are free), or get a Pack of six visits for $36 (saving $12). Pretty decent, considering you don't get hit for bad food, and it's so well attended and stocked. Check it out yourself!

This did not disappoint. The girls are currently 3, 6, and 7, with varying levels of adventurousness and physical confidence, and they all absolutely loved it. The zipline was a big hit, as was the climbing wall cube thingie. Lots of room to spread out, well maintained play structures that appeal to many ages, and good coffee close by. What's not to like?

It's a calm, quiet oasis, filled with beautiful flowers and bushes and greens until it isn't. The playground here has a full swing set, and a decent sturdy slide and climbing platform.

Hidden and on up high is a larger pond that must be filled with fresh water fish. Lots and lots and lots of shade. Perfect area for a picnic. Very very clean and safe.
