The museum is a 12 to 15 minute walk from the 149th Street 4 and/or 5 subway station. The museum is open from Tuesday to Saturday and once a month on Sunday. Beware that they have two sessions 10 am to 1 pm and 2 pm to 5 pm. The museum is closed from 1 pm to 2 pm and the security guard won't let you until shortly after 2 pm. The museum has a The Nest (3 and under area), The Waterway (water area), The Woods (e.g., has some animals such as snake, fish and turtle), The block (is like you neighborhood grocery store with fruits and a home with a grill) and The Cloud (when I went, there was music instruments such a piano, xylophone that you can play) Tip: Make sure you redeem your free book ticket to redeem up to 2 books at the bodega.

It is extremely difficult to find an affordable gym with a swimming pool. During the summer I could…read moreget away with the NYC Parks free lap swim program but during the rest of the year I have to find a real gym that does not hurt your wallet (or require you to sell your organs on ebay). The Bronx House solves that problem for me. I am a big fan of the variety of fitness class offerings and indoor cycling is the most popular (the class fills up right after the previous ab class). Cherelle, who leads this class on Tuesdays, is a great trainer and puts the hurt locker on while making exercise on a stationary bike "fun". The pool is 25 yards and way shorter than an olympic size pool (50 meters). Size matters, eh? During lap swim hours, the pool is divided into two lanes: slow and slower. For those who need a good workout, be prepared to swim around your neighbors. During the summer, test your patience with all of the visitors with day passes. The gym and pool hours are limited and designated for classes and gender/age groups. If the location works for you and you can accept the limited schedules, join the Bronx House. The gym, with the TRX equipment alone is superior to most of the $20 gyms in the area. Make sure to review the calendar for holiday and maintenance closings. I have made the mistake of showing up on a holiday and doing the sad Charlie Brown walk of shame home. IFHTP 3+

The staff is friendly and accommodating. I had lots of fun playing the games and everyone was observed having fun. I didn't see any inappropriate behavior. The children were all having a great time. All the games were functioning properly. There's a large area for birthday parties with multiple tables. Chucky comes out every 30 mins to greet the guest. The only downside was exchanging the tickets for the prizes. They only have one person at the counter serving multiple families and you can see the distress from both the staff and the customers. However the young man behind the counter was calm and helpful. My only suggestion is having at least two or three staff members at the counter when there is multiple customers waiting. Free cotton candy for the kids. A stable location in the Bronx for kids to go to and have fun.

the soft play set I rented from Giggle Adventures was a HUGE HIT at my son's first birthday party…read more I had a group of 10 kids aged 1 through 9 and this kept them busy for hours. the ball pit I got was huge and the kids were totally obsessed with it. the guy who came and set it up was on time and he did a great job making use of the space that I had available. he was also on time and quick when it came to taking everything apart. I researched renting from a few other places, but I really appreciated how responsive Ashley was to my emails and questions. Giggle adventures really delivered for me. Highly recommend to anyone and definitely I will be renting from them in the future. Thank you for making my son's first birthday unforgettable!!!

Great time here at the Rock Club…read more Purchased a Groupon and decided to visit on a Friday morning. Called ahead and the front desk staff were very quick in getting back to me to confirm that a belayer was available at that time. They also confirmed the Groupon over the phone. I went ahead and completed the required waiver forms online prior to our visit. Adequate parking was available at that time. The Rock Club (downstairs) shares its space with a with a tennis club, so make sure you follow the ramp down toward the Rock Club entrance and NOT the stairs whih leads to the tennis club. We arrived at around 10am and it was fairly empty. The Rock Club staff explained the process and set us up with climbing shoes. We were then introduced to our belayer who was awesome. Over the next hour, we tried climbs ranging in difficulty. The wall heights range from about 35-40 feet and the peg placement and wall angles vary throughout the climbs, making some more difficult than others. We even had some time to try some bouldering. Our belayer was great at explaining techniques and technical terms. She was very patient and very encouraging...though not "pushy" at all. After we finished, the staff was nice enough to show us around to see what else was available at the facility: childrens area, common areas, training rooms and weight rooms. May go without saying...wear comfy clothes. As a regular gym-goer, but someone who has NOT climbed before, this was a welcomed challenge. Certain muscles, particularly the forearms and core, may not be part of the typical gym regimen...but are very important in climbing...that being said, I was definitely feeling it the next day. Overall we had a great experience at the Rock Club. We will deinifitely look into other classes. Kudos to all the staff members there.

They do a great job with lots of different physical options - including with sensitivities to a variety of strengths and capabilities. The zip line looks super fun and good for the adventurous. I loved the cocoon-like swings, which my kids spent a ton of time in. The trampoline is also a nice feature. There are also some more play/imagination options and toys. I found the small room in the back a little sad, perhaps because there were no windows, and some of the toys seemed a little more worn. But it was clean and well organized. There's also a calming room, a nice feature. The people working here were super friendly and knowledgeable.

However, the two times I have brought my son here, there is music blaring loudly. My son has sound sensitivity and cannot handle it. I also made the mistake of bringing him on a day that schools were closed and it was complete chaos. After he was knocked over by a kid on a zip line, we left and never returned. Again, I love the idea of this place and want the business to succeed. I just want it to be more accommodating to kids across the spectrum.
