I visited Storybook Station in Spring 2025 based off a review on Facebook. Prior to that, I've only…read moreseen and interacted with Storybook Entertainment characters performing at various events on the island (examples: Christmas events at Royal Hawaiian Center, events at Wet N Wild, etc). There are 2 physical locations - Pearlridge and Windward Mall. My child's birthday was coming up, so I booked BOTH locations for a "Stay and Play" session. You can either call or book online for a session. A "Stay and Play" session starts off with choosing a costume. There are many options to choose from - unicorn, princess, mermaid, cheerleader, etc. After changing, your child is whisked off for a makeover which includes nail painting and face painting. How fun! Kids can have a little tea party with the Storybook staff (who are also dressed up), dance to the music, and/or have a photoshoot with the props. Although both locations have different props, they are both magical in their own right. I mean, check out my pictures. The colors, the lighting ... everything just adds to the ambiance and makes a very unique and unforgettable experience for the little ones. You won't regret bringing your kid(s) here. Note: Windward Mall is the original location. I uploaded 23 pictures, however, sometimes Yelp cuts me off with a max of 10 that are attached to my review.

I've been excited for GBGS since I saw ads for it as it was still in the process of coming to…read moreHawaii. I love the whole experience of it and as someone who is confidently competitive, this more than happily scratches the itch and allows me (and my friends) to go crazy and get a little unhinged. My biggest advice is that your experience is what you make of it so whether you are a large group and you adopt a couple in or a couple who needs to get adopted in, this is a great opportunity to meet new people and just have fun. The host will do their best to run the show smoothly and fun, but at the end of the day you can really determine your fun, and let me tell you, it's also not that hard. This is one of my favorite activities to do ever since it came to Oahu because of the variety depending on who you bring or the games you play. I also love that it's fun for all ages and for anyone's level of common/uncommon knowledge. It's one of the most unique activities on Oahu (IMO) and it's so worth more than one visit.

Came here for the first time with my friends. We came back home to visit from Texas and have never…read moreexperienced anything like this before. I honestly thought this was going to be mediocre or somewhat boring and for only kids, but boooooy was I wrong. We did a family feud-like game show amongst my friends who wanted to split the teams up to mens vs women. I'm sure they regretted it because the men destroyed them lol. Overall, great host and setup to make it actually feel like you're at an actual game show. There were a ton of different game challenges which allowed different people to engage. I would've loved to try their escape room too, but we didn't have time for that. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. Located in the Ala Moana Shopping Center on the 2nd floor in the middle of the mall near Target.

My son is seriously devastated and I had to make sure his last birthday party was EPIC. Hawai'i Game Truck DELIVERED! He has not stopped raving about his gamer experience that he was able to share with all his friends and cousins! I totally won Mom of the Decade award. Score!!!! I have no idea how I am going to one up this party next year! Even the adults got in on the fun! Pretty sure they enjoyed it more than the kids! The owners are nothing short of AMAZING! So much Aloha!!!! You can see the pride they take in the services they offer. To top it off they constantly are giving back to the community. Super inspirational! Super grateful! Mahalo nui loa!

He helped me zero out our cards of tokens (we get the cards as gifts so we always have a stack of cards and you unfortunately cannot combine tokens. Only tickets) Gloryo was so great with my kids engaging with them and talking to them about the different games and when it came time to cashing in their tickets they were having a hard time deciding which toys to pick so Gloryo make suggestions and they absolutely loved his ideas. We will definitely be back! Mahalo Gloryo!!!

Realistic rating is a 3.5…read more A fairly standard mall arcade, Jungle Fun Island provides a little bit of a break in the Ala Moana center when shopping. Great for kids, the arcade has a variety of ticket-winning games and standard arcade games. The staff is pretty helpful and nice but don't expect too much in machine generosity. Sometimes you win, mostly the arm loses grip. But that's to be expected. There does seem to be a large variance in game prices though, with some just a bit expensive and some having you scratch your head. Don't expect deals here but be realistic about what it costs to play games here and you'll be ok.

There were two employees standing there. As I was about to swipe the card one of them said I can help you so I gave him my credit card too. The $40 went fast so about 40 minutes later they came looking for Sweetie and me. The kiddies didn't want to go to Candy carousel(Bud is into healthy snacks) so we headed to our next stop, Dave N Busters.

**Don't forget to bring socks for both adult and child (child's socks must have grip)**…read more I stopped here on a whim on a weekday afternoon after picking my 9-month old son from daycare. I've been looking for a soft play area for him since he's becoming more mobile (crawling and cruising) but the Hawai'i Children's Discovery Center closes too early, Kids City Ala Moana is still under construction, and Keiki Kingdom has a 10-month old age minimum. You can park for free at 848 Beretania in front of the Hawai'i Opera Plaza. If anyone gives you asks, just let them know that you're headed to WRTS (no one gave me any issues though). I read on Yelp ahead of time that there are stairs so I left our stroller in the car and carried my baby to WRTS. I tend to overheat easily so with carrying my heavy baby, the afternoon heat, and walking up the stairs, I ended up feeling a little dizzy--just a precaution for anyone else with sensitivities (the walk isn't far and there aren't that many stairs but I have POTS). Fortunately, the AC inside is nice and cool. If you forget socks, you can purchase some on-site. They also have lots of sensory items and toys in the lobby area for purchase. If it's your first time, I recommend filling out the release forms ahead of time online--one less thing to do with antsy kids or in my case, a heavy baby lol. There are so many different areas, depending on your child's age and interests! We stayed around an hour and had the entire place to ourselves the majority of the time we were there, so it's not crazy/overwhelming like Keiki Kingdom, at least on weekday afternoons. And if it does get crowded, I'm so thankful that they have a quiet room for those that need to decompress. My baby really enjoyed the infant/toddler area! Of course, with any play area, you should closely monitor your baby to make sure they don't swallow something they shouldn't but all of the toys and structures seemed clean and in great condition. There are sensory items like different fabric swatches, gross motor items like a Pikler triangle, and so much more. My baby surprisingly loved playing with the toy trains lol. There is also a bin where you can put toys after you use them so that they can be cleaned. I really appreciate that everyone is welcome here, whether you are neurotypical or neurodiverse. It's so important that kids have spaces like these to play with and be around others that may process things differently than them or use different supports or have different play/communication styles. It's never too young to provide opportunities to develop inclusivity and empathy, especially when it's centered around play! They're active on Instagram where you can see their open hours for the week and also see photos/clips of all of the different spaces (they even have a space for parties and private events!)

My husband found this place n' my kids loved it! They got to get all their energy out n' were also able to do a variety of activities. There were areas designated for different play. Whether your keiki wanted to color or read, preferred sensory toys, have quiet time, or get their indoor play on with the selection of equipment, they had it all. A gym that welcomes all kids, big or small!
