You simply MUST visit Grasshopper Grove if you have young children! It is, without a doubt, one of…read morethe most thoughtfully designed indoor play spaces I've ever seen. From the moment you walk in, you can tell how much heart and creativity Tiffany has poured into every detail. Instead of screens and technology, children are encouraged to use their imaginations through beautifully designed real-world play spaces. My son could have spent hours exploring the café, bakery, pizza shop, grocery store, kitchen, vet clinic, auto shop and garage, garden with a campfire, and so much more. Every corner invites creativity, problem-solving, and pretend play. As a mom, I also appreciated all of the little details. The facility is cleanly, with comfortable adult seating, a coloring table, and even a child-sized bathroom that made potty breaks and handwashing easy for my son. Their "Yuck Bucket" policy is reassuring, where any toy that ends up in a child's mouth is put by parents or caregivers for staff to sanitizing and shows how seriously they take cleanliness. Before each play session ends, they give a 10-minute warning and encourage the children to help clean up, teaching responsibility and teamwork in such a positive way. Grasshopper Grove also offers fantastic summer camps and Kindermusik classes, a research-based program that combines music, movement, stories, instruments, and play to support children's cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. The staff is incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely adds to the magic of this special place. You can pay for one time visit at a very reasonable rate or sign up for a membership for greater savings. Needless to say, we'll be celebrating my son's 4th birthday here! If you're looking for a place where your child can unplug, use their imagination, learn through play, and simply be a kid, Grasshopper Grove is an absolute gem. We can't wait to go back!

The staff is always so friendly and kind; the play spaces are so much fun; play sessions are reasonably priced and the perfect amount of time. They literally have thought of everything here.

(Conveniently located next to JC Penney's in the FSK Mall..:)

As a grandparent picking up my grandson there I would say the teaching staff was always lovely. I…read morewill also say to their detriment is that La Petite is concerned about their money first and foremost . My daughter gave a full time tuition. They made her sign a paper stating when the child would be dropped off/ picked up even though her work schedule was variable weekly ... and they knew that. If she arrived later than the time they made her state then they wouldn't allowy grandson to attend that day.,. Even though they received full time tuition. I quickly leadned that they did that to observe only necessary teacher - student ratios to pay the least hourly teacher wages possible. Also, many times at the end of the day, your child would be in another classroom because they had already sent your child's classroom teacher home and put them with another teacher until uou arrived .... Also to save them money. Management seems nice but is not transparent at ALL. Be wary. Get what you pay for and be sure to ask about full time tuition and open hours . Bonus : They also like to send kids home for any health reason they can imagine.

I can honestly say that I am beyond grateful for the family we have found at La Petite. The staff and teachers care.

It brings me joy to know that when she's not with me I can rest assured that she is still being loved and cared for by people who want to see her be happy and succeed in life. This place is an extension of home. I will be forever in their debt for helping me raise such a great kid.

We love the new colorful and spacious gym! They maintain a welcoming, fun and clean environment for everyone to enjoy. The staff is so kind, patient and have so much energy! My daughter's development has progressed so much since starting her at 9 months old. She's now 19 months old and has learned so many skills such as how to jump, kick a ball, walk forward and sideways on the beam, correct hand grasp on the bars/rings, and so much more! I personally love watching all the kiddos dance and follow along to the "hello" song at the start of each class. Mrs. Tiffany is doing such a wonderful job and I'm so excited for years to come!

The birthday party included slushies for the kids which they could fill at the snack bar right next to the party rooms. There are plenty of activities for kids of all ages. A few things could be improved. The bathrooms were not that clean and out of paper towels. The ball pit was not contained at all, and there were plastic balls everywhere. The foam pits at the ninja course at pretty shallow and could ideally be twice as deep if not more. And there is very little actual supervision- kids climbing up slides, throwing balls at each other, racing around without any regard for smaller kids. The staff was friendly, but there is room for improvement.
