    I love this place my favorite for my kids special in Paramus I love this place! It's my favorite indoor playground for my kids, especially the Paramus location. The staff is friendly, the place is always clean, and my children always have an amazing time. Highly recommend!

    Having been here once for just free play, here are my thoughts from a party hosting perspective. We held a birthday party here for one of our kids and we definitely had mixed (but, mostly good) feelings about the entire experience. We booked the party for a Saturday from 2-5 PM (their party start times are 10:30 AM, 2 PM, 5:30 PM) and our kids and all of our guests had a ABSOLUTE BLASSSSSST. As expected, our guests were there to have fun and enjoy the party and were probably oblivious to the planning that went into the party, hence why the experience coming here as a guest versus being a party host is going to be different. We booked the party online weeks ahead and on the Monday of the week of the party, we received a phone call from an employee. I'm not sure if you'd typically get a call from the manager or a random employee, but the person who called me was definitely an employee because they told me that the manager was not present that day when I asked certain questions. Basically, the employee confirmed the number of guests, our choice of cake, decorations and pizza (they only offer cheese or pepperoni or both). One thing to note about the pizza is that they advertise that it's 2 slices per guest, HOWEVER, they DO NOT advertise that there are 16 slices were pizza because they cut each regular size slice in half, meaning you're not going to be getting as many pies as you think you're getting based on 2 slices per guest. In actuality, it's just 1 regular size slice per guest. SO BEWARE OF THIS. Oddly, the employee did not request for a guest list with guest names, but we visited Kids Empire the day before the party and submitted one in person and we also paid the entire bill too, but you can choose to pay whenever ahead of time or pay the day of the party. Also, you can choose the tables you would like your party to sit at, but there are dedicated tables for parties as well so there isn't a whole lot of wiggle room on where your party can sit. On the day of the party, we arrived 15 minutes before the party start time as they don't allow the party parents to tend to their tables before then, but we weren't let in until about 5 minutes before the party start. With that said, we were assigned a party host (basically just a regular employee) to oversee our needs and the party tables were decorated as expected with a Kids Empire themed table cover, balloons, plates, cups and they had Welch's fruit snacks too. We added our own little touches to the decorations with extra balloons and snacks (e.g. chips). As the party progressed, family-sized water jugs and juices were brought out too and, whenever we ran out of beverages, our party host would bring out another. At about 3 PM, our pizza arrived from the vendor (Pizza HQ in Woodland Park), which meant it was time to eat for everyone at our party. It was our responsibility to corral everyone though to make sure they were present to chow down. Also, since we knew who the pizza vendor was for Kids Empire, we called them a few days before and placed an order for additional food and they delivered it along with the pizza orders on the day of the party. Just make sure to mention to them what time your party is. Our party host offered to serve the pizza to our guests, but our guests pretty much took matters into their own hands and started grabbing the pie boxes and handing them out, so there wasn't much need for the party host to assist, but just keep in mind that they do help serve the food. I will say that although our party host was verrrry, verrry nice and accommodating, at times she disappeared and we were not able to get a hold of her when we needed her, but we did find out she played the role of Huggy the dragon during the birthday parade. When our party began to wind down around 5 PM and it was almost time to end it, it felt like we were being rushed a bit to clean up. We understood that they had another party at 5:30 PM, but we were being rushed to move our leftover foods and we weren't allowed to keep it present in the facility, so we had to throw it all into the car. However, with the weather being extremely hot outside, we knew the food wouldn't last long in the car, so we asked if they could hold our food for us to the side for a short period, but the answer was NO. It would have been nice if they let us keep the food indoors, but because we had to move the food, it almost felt like we were forced to leave or else the leftover food could spoil in the heat. Anyhowwwww, overall, our kids and guests had ALOT of FUN and that's what really mattered, butttt, there's always a butttt, we would have appreciated if our party host was more visible and present. Also, we would have liked it if they helped hold our food off to the side at the end. It wouldn't have been a huge burden for them, but that definitely rubbed us a bit wrong. I would still recommend holding a party here, but just beware of some shortcomings.

    Went in for the first time at this place for a birthday party. Easy check in process after signing waiver. The place is pretty clean, lots of obstacle based play area and huge slides. There's a dance area, toddler play area, some arcade games. At the counter they sell many different types of snacks, sodas and ice cream. There are bench and tables where they put the party decorations. Other regular tables are available for parents not there for parties. The associates help with serving pizza and cutting cake. But it seems they don't fully dedicate resources to orchestrate the whole party that I have seen in other places. Our host dropped the cake by accident cause she was handling it after candle blowout. Also didn't see any help when they were packing all the gifts. The service in this process has lots of room to improve.

    Had my daughter's 4th birthday there yesterday and it was 2 hours well spent! We all had an amazing…read moretime. Perfect size location for a private event. Not too big or too small. Parents are able to see what their kids are up to and the kids are having a good time. They have a play area, some arcade games, activities in sectored off rooms at different times of the party. Although the time is running the staff is easy going and doesn't make you feel like anything is rushed. Only 3 staff members handling about 30 Kids and 30 Adults and it just flowed. I got so many compliments from friends about how enjoyable and easy the party was because with 30 young kids things can get crazy. Would definitely recommend and do another event here. They also handle decor, food, and clean up. Any additional things you want to bring is up to you but definitely make it easy to just be present as a parents of the birthday girl.

    Celebrated my son's 2nd birthday here today. I loved the service so much, they were accommodating…read moreand really did everything for me which made it less stressful. Decor was 10/10 for the private room. Service from my private host, Luca, was really the best! There was a parking lot as well. Party was booked for 2 hours for 15 kids, and so much was done during that time. Game cards included for kids, character came to visit, kids played around, pizza and beverage for all guest, cotton candy, they got the cake for me, and really good service from staff. Sidebar, everyone loved the pizza. At the end, they cleaned and packed up the gifts for me. Did I mention the good service? lol Definitely made the right choice coming here. Place wasn't too big but definitely clean and organized. Staff communication was great as well before hand. I'd recommend to others.
