The lady at the front desk made me want to drop a star but can't say it's the owners fault. Reason being is she was very dry and quick with the rules I couldn't catch anything she was saying because she was so dry. Didn't seem like she wanted to be there but whatever that interactions like a second. It's basically a bunch of stations like shopping , doctors office, a slide, and so on. Like I said pretty cute.

Play Street Museum is a franchise that specializes in kids' play areas that encourages imaginative…read moreplay and fun settings. The one in Severna Park is one of my favorites to take the kiddos because it has a great mix of interactive toys and buildings. Just to name a few: - an area for crafts - one of those motorized air funnels that you can put a scarf in - ice cream store - grocery store - doctor's office - vets office - a recycling truck with slots to sort different recyclables - a play house with kitchen stuff - pretend firetruck and firehouse with hose and slide You can also opt into extra add ons that allow you to participate in crafts you can take home (think DIY activities like slime). I like that there's only a finite number of spaces for time slots so it never gets too crowded. You should check their website before going just in case they're sold out (I believe they do allow walk ins though). They also have punch cards for a slightly discounted rate. It's usually around $18 for a single visit, but comes out to like $15 a visit with a punch card at the time of this post. I would totally recommend for little ones, but they may start to get bored for any ages 5 or older.

Hyperkids has recently been redone and looks great. A lot of the previous comments about…read morecleanliness were not that bad. While I didn't notice any active cleaning while I was there, it didn't feel gross and I didn't find anything questionable. My kids had a ton of fun and loved everything available inside. My kids are on the younger side. If you have older kids there are certain areas zoned off for younger ages. If I had older kids I might be annoyed that 1/3 of the place was not for them. I also noticed that I lost my kid most of the time. The play space is great and offers a lot, but it is really hard to keep track of your kid once they go in the big jungle gym. I also tried to follow them and it is not created for an adult size to fit.

I recently attended a birthday party at Hyper Kidz in Columbia, and this visit was a much better…read moreexperience than my first one several years ago. When we first arrived, the entrance was pretty chaotic. Parking is limited, especially when birthday parties are going on, and the lobby felt very crowded. Checking in also took longer than expected because one guest ahead of us needed help completing the waiver, while everyone else waited. Thankfully, a manager stepped in and got our party checked in quickly. The shoe storage area was another bottleneck. Since each party has designated bins, there were a lot of people gathered in one small space, making it difficult to get in and out. Once we were inside, though, things improved. The facility itself was clean, including the bathrooms, and the kids had plenty of space to play. The birthday host was very friendly, but he seemed a little overwhelmed and forgot a few things throughout the party. It wasn't a bad experience--just not quite as organized as other birthday parties I've attended. Overall, it was a fun afternoon, and the birthday child had a great celebration. While I probably wouldn't go out of my way to visit this particular location, I would attend another party here if invited. I still prefer the Rockville location, which has been a smoother experience for me.

Just sat back and enjoyed my kids birthday party. Not to mention this place is perfect for the 5-8 year old birthday party age range. All the kids had a complete blast, there's no escape for the kids and the whole place is padded, so when you lose track of your kid, it's a no sweat situation. All the parents just got to keep a distant eye and relax. Even if you're not going for a birthday, this indoor playground is an absolute blast for the kids.

We recently visited Playseum for a playdate, and overall, it was a really fun experience! Located…read moreinside the Columbia Mall, it's filled with imaginative play stations that kept the kids entertained for hours. There are themed areas like a café, Italian restaurant, veterinary office, beauty salon, barbershop, grandma's house, and even a stage where kids can dress up and put on a play. If your child enjoys pretend play, this is definitely a great spot. I also appreciated that it encourages creativity instead of screen time. It's refreshing to see a place where kids can use their imaginations and just be kids. The only thing I didn't love was the pricing. Admission is $15 per person, including adults. I understand their explanation that they want parents to participate with their children, but in reality, many parents are simply supervising. Other similar indoor play spaces only charge for the children, or at least offer a reduced admission for adults. That pricing model would have made more sense to me. They also offer several add-on activities like decorating cupcakes, making slime, decorating cookies, baking, and even an animal encounter at the top of each hour. They're all cute options, but they do cost extra, so be prepared for the visit to add up if your child wants to do multiple activities. The animal encounter was fairly small, with just a few animals, but younger kids will probably still enjoy it. There is seating available for parents, although it can be limited since so much of the space is dedicated to the different play stations. Overall, the kids had a blast, the facility was clean, and there was plenty to keep them engaged. While I wish the adult admission and extra activity pricing were a little more family-friendly, I'd still recommend Playseum for a fun afternoon of imaginative play. We'll definitely consider coming back.

Would I recommend this establishment...absolutely! Can't wait to go back!…read more I found this place by searching for play activities near Columbia mall. I had never been here and wasnt sure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised. Location: Inside the mall, on the first floor, right outside the Nordstroms. Easy to find. Cost: Worth the entrance fee, both child and adults have to pay. Fair price. There are also take home activities and play that cost extra, such as slime, treat making, soap making, and more. These extra activities are also fairly priced and and so much fun. The entrance fee to the Kids Playseum allowed you access to the establishment nextdoor, Playseum upstairs. They also have playseum bucks as well. Staff: Super nice, helpful, experienced and attentive staff. Everyone one we interacted with for our time there was fabulous. We were able to go to both the Be with me playseum and the playseum upstairs. Cleanliness: The kept a tight shop. The toys and amenities were well kept, organized, clean and in good condition. Options: There were so many rooms to play in, so many cute toys, books, dress up and imagination play. My favorite was the ice bucket where the fish were kept in the Safeway. Super cute! The girls loved playing here and definitely want to come back. Overall wonderful experience!

Rolly Pollies was booked for their open play and I remembered The Bounce Party in the mall. It is also on Groupon. Win win. It is located by Gold's Gym. They have three bounce houses and a toy section for two and under. The bounce houses are old but still in working condition. The best part was honestly the staff. Usually when I visit places for open play the staff does not interact a lot or they just talk to each other. The girls working on Black Friday were very attentive. We were there with two other boys but they kept an eye on everyone. I have a 4 year old and a two year old. When one wanted my attention the staff watched the other one. It was great. I would definitely recommend if you need to go some where to burn the kiddos energy. Check out groupon. 5 visits for $25. I did have to pay tax $2.50. No big deal. Each visit will give you two hours. Can't beat it. Here is a pic of the party room.

It's perfect for 18 months - 5, but really a sweet spot for 2-4 year olds.

Not that it's excusable but my expectations are fairly low for a place that smells like feet haha. They've added a new play area at this location, that in combination with the parking, makes it better than the Waldorf location for me. This review is mainly for Ant who was present the entire time I was there for a birthday party. At 7pm it turns into a glow jump which my daughter so was geeked up about. Might have to run it back for her birthday this year. I didn't realize Ant wasn't a guest until 30mins after I arrived, that's how much he was interacting with the children. I saw him at various times during my visit just making his rounds and assisting children as needed. There was a moment when I couldn't find my son and I asked for his help, he stopped what he was doing immediately to look for him. Shortly after I looked up and he was listening to my son go on and on about sonic the hedgehog, going as far as to compliment my son on his retelling of sonic stories :o). He was also in the party room assisting, triple checking on each kid, refilling drinks and passing out cupcakes. One girl even made a mess on her face and he stopped and helped her get cleaned up. I would come back to this location just for Ant, I cannot say enough nice things about him and his customer service. I made a point to note his name before I left, and he alone is the reason I'm writing this review. Thanks Ant, you're a gem.

On January 3, 2026, I visited Sky Zone of Bowie with my son and his friend. My intention was simply…read moreto pay for their visit to the facility. I did not knowingly enroll either child in an ongoing membership, nor do I recall knowingly authorizing Sky Zone to charge my bank account approximately $75 every month thereafter. Following that visit, however, recurring monthly charges began appearing on my account. I subsequently learned that memberships apparently had been established for both my son and his friend. This is particularly concerning because I would never knowingly enroll another person's child in a recurring membership or accept an ongoing financial obligation for that child. My bank records reflect the following charges: February 3, 2026 - $74.76 March 3, 2026 - $74.76 April 3, 2026 - $74.76 May 3, 2026 - $74.76 June 3, 2026 - $74.74 July 3, 2026 - $74.76 August 3, 2026 - $74.76 It appears that the monthly amount represents charges associated with two children, at approximately $36-$37 per child per month. I only take my son to Sky Zone periodically. I had no reason to intentionally purchase recurring memberships for two children, particularly when one of those children is not mine. Nor was I presented with any conversation regarding obtaining a membership to get a 17-dollar discount! I was charged $72.58 for visit for two kids with a military discount. If I had been given a 17 dollar discount this would have made it a lesser amount. Conversation With General Manager After discovering the recurring charges, I spoke with the General Manager, Monti, and requested an explanation and documentation of my authorization. Monti explained that I may have enrolled in the memberships in order to receive a discount and stated that customers sometimes elect to do this. I explained that this explanation does not make sense in my circumstances because I ALWAYS use my military benefits when discounts are available. I would have had no reason to intentionally establish two recurring memberships merely to obtain a discount for a 17-dollar single visit. I would love to have seen the transaction for this date to see where 17 dollars was deducted from the bill. More importantly, I do not recall knowingly agreeing to or authorizing recurring memberships. I asked him for the text message that I would have had to receive and sign and he stated, you would have to do a membership to receive the text message. Monti further explained that, during the enrollment process, I would have received an electronic communication on my phone and would have been required to electronically acknowledge or sign an agreement. I specifically requested that Sky Zone provide the documentation demonstrating my affirmative authorization, including my electronic signature or other record showing that I knowingly agreed to recurring monthly charges. The documentation shown or provided to me did not contain my signature. I also searched my phone records and messages from January 2026 and have been unable to locate the communication that I was told I would have received as part of the enrollment process. When I asked the manager to provide the original electronic communication allegedly sent to me, I was told that I would have to go through the enrollment process again in order to receive such a message. Recreating the enrollment process now, however, would not establish what was actually sent to me or what I affirmatively authorized on January 3, 2026. The General Manager offered to refund only two months of charges and maintained that I had signed up for the memberships and subsequently forgotten doing so. I respectfully dispute that explanation. Request for Proof of Authorization If Sky Zone maintains that I knowingly authorized these recurring memberships, I am requesting that Sky Zone provide the actual records associated with the January 3, 2026, transaction, including receipt showing where I received a 17-dollar discount on this date January 3, 2026, the amount that he stated was discounted as a result of me signing up for this membership Concerns Regarding the Enrollment Process After discovering these charges, I researched consumer complaints concerning Sky Zone membership billing and found numerous publicly available complaints from consumers describing experiences involving disputed recurring memberships, including allegations that consumers did not understand they were enrolling in ongoing memberships or subsequently disputed recurring charges.
