They have a safe and secure process in the morning for entering camp outside the facility. What really sets this apart is the variety of activities they have for kids of all ages. Never, ever, have my kids actually been exciting about going to "daycare" until we brought them here. The only disappointing feature is that they currently close in the winter. We will definitely bring them back once they reopen. So glad we found this place!

My son had THE best time at Steve and Kate's Camp in Minneapolis. My partner and I were worried…read moreabout sending him there because he's super slow to warm up and usually doesn't want to go anywhere. He came home after his first day and LOVED it! He couldn't sleep that night because he was too excited to get back to camp. Haha! Every single day he had things to share with us and he said he had the best day. He learned a lot of new things and had many options everyday of what he could do. We were in Mpls for only two weeks this summer and he was really sad when he was having his last day. We'll sign him up again this summer if we can make it work to visit again. We're definitely going to make it a yearly thing.

If you have a Ninja in your family, this is a fantastic spot for a birthday party…read more We hosted a Birthday party here and were genuinely impressed by the level of care and communication from the staff, both leading up to the event and on the day itself. Everything went well throughout and their staff were easy to work with, which goes a long way when you're planning a kids' party. We rented the space for two hours. The first portion included a choice between an instructor-led ninja class or a Nerf party -- we chose the Nerf option, and it was a hit with both the birthday Ninja and our guests. After that, the kids had freestyle time to explore and play throughout the gym. One thing I really appreciated was that the gym was closed to the public during our party, so it was just our group and the instructors. Safety was the top priority, and the instructors were patient, attentive, and great at keeping everyone engaged. No one felt left out, overwhelmed, or bored. After the gym time, we moved into a private party room that we were free to decorate. The space was spotless when we arrived and already equipped with picnic tables, a food and cake table, a full-size fridge, and even backup supplies like paper towels and disposable cutlery. We didn't need the extras, but it was reassuring to know they were there. There were also no restrictions on outside food, which made planning much easier. We ate, sang happy birthday, and relaxed while the kids continued having fun. Once we wrapped up, the kids were welcome to hang out in the arcade area or head back into the gym while waiting for pickup. Cleanup was our responsibility, which felt completely reasonable and in line with most party venues. Overall, I'm so glad we chose to celebrate here. The staff was welcoming, organized, and attentive, and the experience felt like a solid value for the price. I wouldn't hesitate to come back -- either for open gym time or another celebration!

We've had a really good experience here every time we've been here (3 times). The playplace is HUGE-- a couple of stories tall, padded, very safe, with lots of slides and tunnels and fun stuff for the kids to explore--and it includes a digital dance floor, an arcade, and food to order. You can also drop your kids off for periods of time. My 5-year-old loves this place. He can't be torn away. The one downside is that it's often VERY busy, and consequently a little chaotic. But if you're looking for somewhere fun to bring your kids (little kids all the way up to, I'd say, 10-12 year olds) this is it. Not exactly a relaxing atmosphere, but the kids have a blast and wear themselves out.

It's amazing that kids are the performers - given the incredible feats of strength, discipline and flexibility. Tickets in advance are recommended. Over the 8 years, they've increased from $20 to $40. Tickets can be purchased online about a month in advance of the show. The big top is an amazing venue. Parking is a bit tricky so plan in advance. Extra bathrooms and porta potties are brought in for the events. Concessions and programs are available. The seats are bench with a cushioned pad. After a bit they are tough for the full performance. With intermission, it's a good three hour performance. We've always been blown away! Highly recommend and will continue to return.
