    Dance area
    Karen W.

    First review of the year! When driving from Costco recently I noticed the Kids Empire sign in the opposite side of the plaza and was excited that another indoor playground was open. We came here today and were not disappointed. Since the playground opened recently, everything was immaculate. You pay at the register and you can stay as long as you want which is really nice. Non grip socks are required for entry but they do have socks for sale if you need them. They give you a large plastic tote to put your shoes and other items in while the kids are playing. Note they are card only and do not take Amex. There were so many fun structures and slides to go on that everyone had a blast. There's even a little dance area complete with disco ball for anyone wanting to dance like no one's watching, or to dance to the beat of their own drum perhaps. Our little group consisted of 2 elementary school age kids and a toddler. The staff here were friendly and helped out as needed. For the toddler there was a little kid area and the staff made sure only younger kids were playing in there. The activities that aren't included in the price are the kids motorbikes and the claw machine. For those you buy a card ($1) and add "flame" credits to it. The claw machines are nice in that you are guaranteed a prize each time you play it so at least you get something for paying into the card. I would definitely go here again with the kiddo. She's already asking when she can come back again!

    Went on a Friday at 2pm and me and my 8 year old daughter left at 10pm right when they closed. The website mentions grip socks but it actually says you have to wear regular socks, anti grip socks are not allowed. The best part about this place is the snacks are just $1 or $2 at the most and there's a Costco in the same parking lot so you can get $10 pizza whenever you get hungry and there's also a Walmart across the street along with a QT. There's hours of fun to be had here. Multiple huge slides, lots of climbing, soccer, balls pit, giant legs and lots of kids for your kid to play with. It feels like america ninja warrior for kids. They even let the parents play and go on everything the kids go on. The workers are all super nice and keep the place clean. If you ever went to a place called Giggles then your kid would love this place. My daughter outgrew giggles two years ago but this place is for the kids that go to giggles all the way up to 12. We will be coming back!

    CAPTAIN PLANET What do you have to do to before you come…read morevisit this space? You Planet! You might not like that joke, but you might like this immersive attraction located in Arizona Mills Mall. Bubble Planet does make you feel like you are on a different world as you move your way through various rooms with all kinds of cool visual and physical sensory effects. You are the captain of this voyage as you are in charge of how you navigate this space. Speaking of space, you transcend space and time, because there is no time limit! And the venue space is large, so all you bubblebutts, out there will have plenty of room to explore within this bubble universe. Bubble Planet is more hands-on and interactive than some of the other 'immersive' experiences that have been popping up here and there, so it was one of the better immersive activities in my opinion. This place can be experienced by all ages but better geared towards older kids and adults because of the photo ops for posting to social media platforms to fuel our clout chasing obsession. I hate to burst your bubble, but you can blow through the whole thing, start to finish in maybe 20 minutes. If you came with others, you could maybe spend up to an hour here at the most if you took your time and take a lot of pics. It would be nice if they added some more activities to feel like you got your money's worth, but if you feel like blowing some money on bubbles and photo ops then pop into this place.

    This was a really fun experience! The kids loved the balloons, bubbles, and interactive nature of…read morethe art exhibits. It was a bit steeply priced as you could easily do it in 30-45min but we took our time and even went back through to the favorites - the ball pit, balloon room, and ocean floor.

    A very different experience than the usual trampoline parks they have in the area. It's basically a…read morehuge jungle gym fully padded with mazes going up, down and all around for kids AND their parents (I was shocked I was able to fit through all the climbing holes my toddler was going in and out of). We enjoyed going down some of the slides together and climbing/crawling through the maze of padded fun. My son also asked me if he could play one of their claw machines. It's easy enough to buy one of their cards where you can load up tokens to play some of the game as well as ride some of the motorcycles and cars that are also in the play area. They offer food here for kiddos and there's even a smaller play area for babies. *tip: no non-slip socks, just regular socks since you don't want to get stuck in the middle of one of the slides (I typically always have my son in grippy non-slip socks when I take him to indoor playgrounds like this, was surprised they required regular socks). Pricing is decent as they let you return for the day if you want (but who are we kidding, what parent actually has that kind of time?). Parking lot is in a pretty busy shopping plaza. And playing with your kids in the playground itself can be quite dangerous as some kids can be quite rambunctious so just be cautious especially if you have much younger ones.

    My toddler loves this place, and so do I. They keep everything VERY clean, which is a nice change…read morecompared to other indoor play places around town. There's so much to do that we can easily spend the whole afternoon here. It's great that it's built big enough for adults to climb through and explore with the kids, we always have a blast. The claw machines are play till you win, which is amazing, cause my kid always walks away happy, and with a ton of rubber ducks lol

Tickets are $21 for 2+ yo and they also require kiddos to use their Superplay socks. Guardians are not charged and not required to wear grippy socks. They have a lot of different attractions such as The Floor is Lava obstacle course, huge ball pit with an interactive play screen, large play structures with multiple slides, basketball court with many hoops of variable heights, a giant ground air trampoline, tube slide, food and drinks for purchase, quiet private pods (for nursing, phone calls, etc) and even a peripheral track for adults to walk around and get exercise. My kiddo thought everything was super fun and he had a total blast. One thing I did notice the entire 2 hours we were there, was zero attendants monitoring the play structures. My kiddo was told by other kiddos that he could not go on the tube slide which definitely wasn't true because he was old enough according to the age requirement. Meanwhile, the same kids were both riding in the same tube, which is not allowed according to the same sign. I was wondering where their parents were. Also, the interactive screen in the ball pit had a lot of technical difficulties. It would not consistently respond to the balls hitting the targets or even a hand hitting the targets. So definitely a few areas of improvement needed, but overall, we had a really great time!
