Birthday party review:…read more We went to the gym for a 4-year-old's birthday party. It was one hour of supervised play (2 instructors) followed by snacks in a small party room (the host was in charge of providing the snacks). The play area was a small rectangular space. There was a rope swing, cushioned stairs and mats, a small trampoline and a cushioned swinging column that kids can swing on. My kids are 1- and 3-year-old stayed mostly in the pillow pit and bounced a bit on the trampoline. After a bit of free play, the kids were told to run through the circuit, but my kids didn't quite grasp the concept. The older kids seemed bored. I'm not sure what the optimum age is for this type of party... Maybe 5 year olds? After the circuit, the kids took turns on a harassed aerial swing. This seemed fun and the kids were pulled quite high in the air. The gym does provide tumbling and gymnastic classes. I peered into the large gym area and it looked legit (I don't know anything about gymnastic classes though). There's also parent and tot classes too. The birthday party might be fun for kids around 5-8 years old. I wouldn't host a party there myself as the play area is small and the activities were somewhat limited, but if my kids are invited to a birthday party there, we'll attend.

This place was lovely! It was welcoming, bright and really well taken care of. We went here for a…read morekid-friend's birthday party a few years ago and at the time were already sending our children to another gymnastics school close by. If we weren't so loyal to the lovely people at "our gym" I'm sure I would have put my kids here. I recall two separate gyms and a "party/eating room" and saw a bigger room where parents could sit and watch the class through a wall sized window. The room our party was in had a lot of different gymnastics equipment that a range of differently aged kids could play with. The party was well organized and they did I nice job incorporating activities that put some nice attention on the birthday kid, to help celebrate her. (I find a lot of indoor playground birthday parties to just be a space rental and that's it. Nothing wrong with that, just know from what I remember, that was a nice feature of this place.) Sorry I can't say much first hand about this place as a gymnastics school. Our friends' kids went there for years and were really happy. They only "quit" because they moved out of country. I'm new to this whole writing reviews publicly thing but the single "1 star" review for this place caught my attention and I felt compelled to add my perspective. I've only been here once, at around the same time as the other review by Jeska P. (Please also note the follow-up response from Kids SuperGym itself - it seems likely that the review was meant for another place - it's a real shame Yelp doesn't do anything about this! This place has been sitting with a single 1 star review for over 3 years??!!) And I give them 5 stars because in my opinion, for what this place is and what our experience was, they deserve this. Is it the ultimate gymnastics school in the world? I have no idea. Did they do "anything wrong" in my opinion to warrant "docking" them a star? Not at all.

Kids makes a big mess, but it seems the owners don't care as empty boxes, newspaper and other items are just scattered everywhere. Absolutely messy. The stuffed animal is basically just stuffing an empty animal with stuffing. Not fun, I did it while my son watched as it did not interest him. Afterwards, he wanted to paint one of those cool overpriced porcelain statues. I purchased one, and my son painted it. They would cook it in the oven which gives it a nice glow to it but I had to pick it up after 7 days. She mentioned she would call me, but I never received a phone call. After several weeks, I decided to drop by to pick up my son's painted statue. Due to the mess, the lady looked all over the place and could not find it. Later she mentioned that another customer probably took it. She told me she would give me a call if it comes up or to let me know that I would be given a free statue to repaint. I did not receive the call. I would say this place is a rip off, and you would think its a figurative speech, but literally, I was ripped off. The statue my son painted was deliberately taken it seems as I was not called once by this lady to either pick up my son's statue or get a new one.

Friends son, went there for over a year and there was hardly any improvement from when he started and until he moved to Hamilton. If your looking for someone to pick up the kids and mind them before you pick up, this place is ok. But if you want them to lean martial arts and character building, better look somewhere else.

As he is not a fan of sports, the classes offered at Idea Lab Kids were perfect.

Our son, who has ADHD and anxiety challenges, has been up early and ready to get to camp each day. He enjoys the variety and interesting tasks and has been able to make some great friends as well.
