It's still a nice park with swings, jungle gyms, and slides. There are two levels. One is a playground with a basketball court. The upper level is a lush green space. On snowy days you can go sledding on the hill at the upper level. Some downsides are there are several entrances to the playground and when you have multiple small children it is easy to lose track of them. There are many nooks and crannies they can hide in and give mothers panic attacks when they seemingly "disappear". That said it's still a great park with lots of space for little kids to play in.

Huge modern play area, sand room, laser tag and arcade room including claw machines. The admission price is a bit pricey compared to others, open play costs $42.99 + tax for kids 3 feet and taller and 1 adult. Additional adults cost $18.99 each. It does include unlimited time as others are usually 2 hours max and it includes laser tag. Place is very large, has drinks and a small gift shop (toys, gifts etc). Place is modern and clean for now... until the next new indoor playground ground opens up.

Extremely disappointing experience for my child's birthday party…read more I rarely write reviews, but I feel it's important to share this experience so other families know what to expect. We booked our child's birthday party here and it turned out to be one of the most frustrating experiences we've had. From the start, communication and customer service were poor. When we booked, we were told that to receive their 20% discount, the deposit had to be paid by cash or Zelle -- no credit cards accepted. We ended up sending a $300 deposit via Zelle. On the day of the party, we were unexpectedly told to pay the entire $944 up front, even though we had already paid a deposit. The staff said they would "refund" the deposit afterward, which was never clearly explained before. This caused unnecessary stress during setup since we had to gather additional cash right before guests arrived. During the event, there were several issues: We weren't asked to sign waivers until after the kids started playing, which interrupted the start of the party. The laser tag (included in our booking) wasn't ready -- the staff said the equipment was still charging. The staff's attitude was dismissive and unhelpful throughout. After the party ended, we stayed about 30 minutes to clean up the room -- something most places understand is part of the process. The next day, when we asked for our $300 deposit refund, we were told it was being withheld because we "stayed 50 minutes longer." That's unreasonable. We were cleaning up, not extending the party, and the children had mostly left. To make things worse, when we tried to discuss this issue, the staff was rude and unprofessional. The facility itself wasn't well maintained -- we even found garbage in the ball pit. Between the lack of communication, poor management, and the unfair way they handled the deposit, I cannot recommend this business to anyone. There are so many better options that actually value their customers. Spend your money elsewhere -- you'll get better service and less stress.

There are separate areas for swings, a small area for the sprinklers during hot days and plenty of benches to sit. Next to the playground is more flat, green areas.

Playground for All Children is one of my favorite Queens playground. Some would say it's rundown,…read moreor needs improvement, I find it unique with its well thought out design. This park has so much to offer, especially if you know it's history. Playground for all Children was first built in 1984, designed to accommodate both disabled or able-bodied children - the first of its kind in the country. You would notice the wheelchair-accessible ramps, blind friendly textured path with braille signs marking along the way, handrails that can be reached by children using crutches or wheelchair to highlight a few features. There has been a few upgrades, like a sensory garden was introduced in 2006. My favorite feature would be the musical elements integrated throughout the park. It's magnetizing design and material was what attracted me most. While I would agree it isn't as shiny or well maintained as Gantry, Hunters or Domino Park in particular, this park offers so much serenity and joy. For instance, Flushing Meadow Park is great for bird watching. The literal kind. In particular, it was magnificent coming to the park and I saw... a downy woodpecker? I'm not quite sure if it's a downy or a hairy woodpecker, but it's small size would indicate it's a downy. I was drawn in by its pecking sound and in awe of it's rare sighting. I never seen a bird like that up close. Needless to say, my serendipitous time was well spent this morning- bird watching. This park offers plenty to do. They offer a distinctive Amphitheatre seating surrounding its basketball courts. The seating may be a bit outdated, in need of repair, a paint job or upgrade in fact. However, this characteristic was welcoming. In fact, there's plenty of seating throughout the park. So much little gems if you spend the time looking at its simplistic beauty. They have a bunch of shaded picnic tables for your outings, a play section consisting of a school bus, fire truck, school house, etc., new swing set, and an enclosed area for badminton, scootering etc. A con to be aware of, would have to be the parking, or lack of. Be forewarn, NYC has an anti-car movement coming in strong, privatizing public street parking. Don't get me started on the open/closed streets. If you're going to drive, and spend an awesome day with everything flushing meadow park has to offer, (Hall of Science, Queens Zoo, International Night Market, Queens Museum) then come early. Otherwise, there is the 7 train to 111st, and a few walkable blocks to a fabulous day.

Fairly new indoor playground. It is very big with a lot to do. It is also pretty clean even though…read morethere are a lot of people. There is one dedicated staff that cleans and picks up all the toys on the floor. My kids loved this place. They had a lot of fun as there is so much to do. For younger kids you do need some supervision as some kids are pretty rough. Some parents also don't care about what their kids do. My son waited to play with the trains but the kid that was playing with it took all the trains with him and his mom allowed it. My son was so disappointed. Since this place is still fairy new, things are still in good condition the first time we came. The second time we came there was more wear and tear and the canon in the ball pit did not work. However, there is still a lot to keep the little one busy. My kids are on the younger side so they don't play with the smaller toys like the pretend play kitchen and the sensory toys. My kids like the pebble pit. He spent most of this time there. On the downside there are kids who don't follow the rules and throw pebbles around. Two hours do pass by very fast but it's enough to tire out the kids. Overall still a fun place to take the kids.

The challenge for me is managing three kids whenever I take them out. So when I look for a good…read moreplayground, I need to check for certain things: 1. Number of exits. The ideal? One. Triassic Playground technically has zero, as it isn't really fenced in. But it is a bit off the beaten path and far enough from the road (which gets very little traffic) that it is okay. One caution - a lake lies behind it. So if you have more than one wild child and you have to play zone defense, this isn't the place for you. Thankfully, my oldest boy (5) is now trustworthy enough to not run into a street, so I was able to go here. 2. Population density. I love my kids, but sometimes my three feel like three too many. I look for playgrounds that aren't overly crowded. This one seems to fit the bill, though I did go in winter. I'll make sure to check it out again later in the year. 3. Play Options. Six adult-size swings in one fenced-off area, six kiddie swings in another fenced-off area. Ideally, there would be a gate to each area but there are none, but that is typical. There are two separate playground thingees (you know what I mean) for the kids to run/climb/jump/etc on, and it looks like four slides. There are some wide open areas and paths and I saw a kid riding around on a big wheel there. Alongside the playground is a nice stretch of grass as well as four basketball hoops, so there is plenty to do in one stop. 4. Overall Safety. Number of exits plays into this. Lurkers/creeps? Very low. Not many places to hide that you're creepy in this area. Traffic? Very low, but still need to keep an eye on your kids. Unusual points of danger? Relatively high, given the lake right behind it. If you know your kid wanders, this isn't the place to get sucked into Facebook or Netflix on your smartphone. My kids were happy to spend a half hour here and didn't really want to leave, so I'll definitely be back. I'll add this to the rotation of playgrounds to keep my kids interested.

Great Spot for Kids to Play and Have Fun!…read more My daughter loves coming here on her days off from school! There are plenty of activities and a good variety of play sets to keep kids entertained. The price is very reasonable--just $20 for two hours of playtime. The place is clean, although some of the equipment feels a bit old. A few machines were broken, but the staff does their best to fix them so the kids can still enjoy them. Overall, it's a great spot for kids to burn off energy and pass the time. Weekends can get really crowded, so for a better experience, I recommend going on weekday mornings or early on weekends. Definitely avoid peak hours in the afternoon, especially around 3 PM.
