I had to step out after 20 mins as my eyes were burning and were red. That's too bad because I liked the layout of this place. While it says you can't bring in food several folks brought in small snacks and drinks. If you want to wear googles for the chlorine, have at it!!

A few days ago we checked out Lesley "Les" Miller Jr. All People's Community Park & Life Center…read more It's home to Hillsborough County's largest adaptive playground. The playground has swings for different age groups and abilities. My kids enjoyed going down the slides, the rope- and rock-climbing structures, musical elements, and spinning structure. There's plenty of shade over the playground and benches for parents. The newly opened splash pad was a hit with my kids. Plenty of shaded seating for parents and bathrooms are nearby. Don't forget to pack snacks for the kids (please clean up after your family), sunscreen and reusable water bottles. Not as crowded before 12 pm.

Only reason I am not giving this park a 5 is because there were a couple kids there with realistic Looking Bb Guns. Very unsettling! I am all for 2nd amendment rights, but for kids to be walking around a park with BB guns that look like a Smith Wesson ??!! Dangerous We will be back to this park because it's close to home but was not happy about the guns.

The park is ran by the Hillsborough County and is open from dawn to dusk. Only service animals are allowed but I've seen people come here with their dogs. There are water fountains and plenty of metal trash bins. I'm sure there are bathrooms but I never stay long enough to find one. There is a covered area with picnic tables but the playground and the playground has swings and slides. It's designed for children age 5-12. The playground is in an ideal area under large moss covered trees. I do recommend this park and will upload more pictures on our next visit!

Cookie Monster's Canopy Crawl provides a 3 story elaborate netted obstacle course which will…read moreprovide your young child hours of fun at the Sesame Street Safari of Fun Kids Play area in Busch Gardens Tampa Theme Park. There is a vast area of netting that connects kids to many areas of Sesame Street Safari of Fun including Elmo's Treehouse Trek, the Count's Zambezi Rally, and more! Infants are not permitted and adults must be accompanied by a child. Yes it sounds backwards but it is their policy so that the area is mostly occupied by kids. This attraction's Sesame Street mascot is the Cookie Monster, who is a blue furry monster with googly eyes and an insatiable appetite. Cookie Monster's primary craving is cookies, but he can and often does consume anything and everything, from apples and pie to letters, flatware, and hubcaps. When Cookie Monster eats something, he makes a very distinct, loud munching "noise", often interpreted as "OMM-nom-nom-nom..." & says "Me want cookie!" Instead of "I want a cookie". After winning a game show contest, Cookie Monster comically choose 1 cookie over an array of luxurious much more valuable and better prizes.

Pros: They had a lot of things for the kids to do to get their energy out. Staff were very kind and helpful. Cons: Place is small and can get crowded very fast. Some of toys were old and were thrown everywhere, of course expected by children but it made the play area very messy and hard to maneuver around. It was okay overall but it was just smaller and space was a bit tight for everything. Parents didn't really watch their kids so they would be stealing toys from other kids and it wasn't really a friendly place for my child. A lot of parents were there to socialize with other parents so they didn't watch their kid so that posed a danger to their children and every one else's.

The facility was clean and felt safe. The staff was friendly, and it was nice to have a comfortable place for parents to sit while still being able to keep an eye on the kids. They only charged for one child's price and an adult can go into the play area with the child to supervise. Socks are required any type they did not make us purchase socks there with the special grips like trampoline places do. It's a great option on hot or rainy Florida days when you still want your little ones to get plenty of exercise and social play. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend it to other families looking for a fun indoor playground!

I had better expectations for this indoor play place. Parking easy to find and staff welcoming but…read moreI don't think it's worth it for under 3ys old. The arcade games only last 30 seconds each game for all of the arcades. That's not fun for a child who wants to continue playing therefore it requires a lot of money to be loaded onto the card plus the admission fee for children AND adults. The only toddler section was a small area that was not well designed to keep them entertained. We have been to many indoor places that fit all ages but this place was not suitable or fun at all. I found the restrooms extremely dirty and lots of toilet paper on the floor and in front of the entrance to the restrooms. There was no soap to wash my hands and I felt even more disgusted I love the jungle climbing area but the toddler section says no adults which doesn't make sense why I paid for myself and if I had a younger baby wanting to go in and I can't assist. The instructions aren't clear. Then for my older, we tried the other gym but once your in, it's a trek to get out and super hectic when there's so many kids running in there. It's much better when it's empty and calm so finally my little one had time to jump on the bounce house without an older kid body slamming the inflatables or doing backflips. I would say 2/5 it's very dirty and dinghy and the toys were very old Needs improvement or upgrades to be better than the other Tampa indoor play places for the same price
