Air conditioning is on full blast which is a necessity especially with all the people and the body heat that's generated here. Food and drink are reasonably priced.

Be back soon.

On the crap end of what is left of The Shoppes at Carlsbad Mall, someone decided to open an Indoor…read morePark that caters to younger children. It's like if someone crossed a SkyZone Trampoline Park with a McDonald's Playpen and slapped it with a coat of pastel paint and candy stickers. Sorry, CANDEE stickers. I will say that the prices are very reasonable. $25 buys you two hours of playtime. Grip socks are extra, food is extra, some of the games are extra. And the area itself is impressively clean, especially considering the number of young children traipsing about. On the negative side of things, however, the list is a bit longer. First, there's not a ton to do. Candeeland has limited space to work with and much of it is taken up by sitting areas for parents. The empty space could easily house 2-3 more small activities without sacrificing any existing areas. Still, what activities they do have are pretty intricate, with the multilevel play area having a nice array of padded areas for children to crawl through and a toddler area with nice pneumatic tube setup to delight the young. Next, even though the place is less than a year old, there's already some breakage of some of the area. There's a floor made up of touch screens that displays numerous games for kids to step on a play with. However, it's apparent that some larger kids have smacked a number of screens, causing them to go out or flicker. Which leads to my biggest issue. There are not that many people working here. This means that there are usually people minding the gate and checking if your kid is leaving with the right person. But, there aren't enough people on the floor to ensure safety or police older kids from doing things they shouldn't be doing. Candeeland really is a place that caters to those between 3-8 years of age. Older kids either don't fit on some of the slides or play a bit too rough with the environment. More than once, a screaming 12 year old almost barreled over my kid, knocked her off a slide, or hit her with one of the nerf axes. Sure, they balk when you glare at them. But, they just go back to screaming and thrashing about while their parents sleep oblivious in the corner. So, does my seven year old like Candeeland? Yes, she loved it and wants to come back. Did I like Candeeland? M'eh, not particularly. Still, I'm sure I'll be back eventually...

Best indoor playground I've been to in So Cal so far. The jungle gym, ball pits, trampoline areas…read moreare all well kept and safely designed. Most areas have cushions and are padded. It feels safer than other indoor playgrounds we have been to. It can def get crowded when there's a birthday party going on. Multiple hand sanitizers and air purifiers around the place. Staff vacuum regularly. The cafe is a real cafe and serves decent food compared to many other playgrounds. It would be a perfect place if the kitchen and market play areas are better stocked with toys and organized. Overall a great experience and will return back if we are around the area again.

The play area is very clean and well-maintained, which I really appreciate. I think this concept is best suited for children between 1 and 3 years old. Older kids may get bored after a while since there aren't many activities available for them. The staff members are friendly, helpful, and attentive. They made us feel welcome and were always willing to assist. The drinks were not my favorite, but since the kids get an hour of playtime, I ended up purchasing something while waiting for them to play. As for pricing, it seems comparable to other indoor playgrounds in the area. Overall, it's a nice and clean place for younger children to have fun.

The play areas are so thoughtfully designed with new, high-quality toys that kept them engaged and entertained for our whole play session. I loved that I was able to interact with them in new, meaningful ways while watching them explore and learn. They also offer a drop off service that your kids can play with a highly qualified play pal while you go have some me time! The atmosphere is magical. The space is peaceful and beautifully decorated, making it a perfect escape for both kids and adults. Every detail, from their yummy coffee bar to the personalized play areas, was carefully thought out. It's definitely designed with both kids and parents in mind. What impressed me also were the beautifully packaged toys available for purchase. It's the perfect spot to find a special gift! If you're looking for a place where your little ones can play, learn, and explore in a peaceful and welcoming environment, I highly recommend checking out The Enchanted Treehouse.

I wouldn't hesitate to use them again for a future party. Price, value, selection- nobody even comes close!

It is on the cozy smaller size but the play activities are all nicely spaced out. I went here on a weekday and it wasn't too packed. The children museum provides indoor and outdoor play options. They have a small section for kids under two where they get to crawl, climb and play with balls. *shoes off* For indoor they have the magna-tiles table, chalk board, reading area, pretend grocery store and ranger lookout, For outdoor they have a big water table; soft foam building blocks, a garden and a dirt excavation section. They do have a handwashing station outside so I appreciate that after the messy play. I also love the art installation, it's big colorful bugs and insects. Would recommend you checking it out.

A huge shoutout to Michele, our party planner, who was incredibly communicative, organized, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. She made everything feel easy and seamless, and truly helped create such a special, memorable day for my daughter and her friends. The setup and decor were beautiful, and everything was ready to go when we arrived, which made a big difference when hosting a group of excited kids! The space itself is amazing, with so many engaging, hands-on activities for a wide range of ages (definitely up to around 10). The kids were entertained the entire time. Even better, so many of the parents were raving about the experience and how much their kids loved it, which says a lot. Highly recommend hosting a party here if you're looking for something fun, interactive, and well-organized. We had the best time!
