For me it was worth the price (especially at discount) as it was different from your typical OC activities, but still fun all the same. I don't recommend it for team building if you're any kind of competitive cause I was super annoyed that my husband kept stepping on lava :P Honestly, dollar for dollar it's a better deal and MUCH more interactive than bowling and mini-golf. Also much appreciate the calories burned!

Child Creativity Lab takes donated every day items (Lego pieces, empty prescription containers, bottle caps, buttons, wine corks, new popsicle sticks as well as excess items from various companies (excess fabric, plastic bottles, paint, pins, tacks, glue, zippers, etc.) and they put them together in a package so that kids can assemble them them and create a figure like a robot or animal out of all the parts. Before COVID they used to have in house workshops, but now they take the party out to the kids in city community centers, schools, etc. My friend planned a service event here so I came over to help out for a couple of hours. All the parts for the project were laid out at various stations and we went down like an assembly line and filled bags with the items to create a project-in-a-bag for each child. If I was a kid in elementary school receiving a project bag like this to put together with other classmates, I would be totally stoked. If you are interested in donating common household items for them to use, give them a call to see what they do and don't take. You can also arrange to do a service event here with your organization, they have people come in every week to help out. We need more places like this in all communities!

This is My second attempt at starting an aquarium. My Husband had a 50-gallon fresh water tank back…read morein the day which I loved to watch the fish - very hypnotic & fascinating, swimming to & fro - but when He leveled up I had to let His fishy friends go too (the maintenance requirements were too overwhelming for Me then). My first recent try was to go the traditional route - heater, filter, bottles of water conditioner & beneficial bacteria, etc. etc. - when I unexpectedly happened upon an eye-opening You-Tube vid about the Walstad method (less homework & a more natural environment, the way God intended). So I returned all that other gear & am starting from scratch. Fernando eased My initial anxiety arriving as a total tank newbie, and gave Me a tour of the various low-maintenance plants I could start My nitrogen cycling with. Nolan - the Captain of this aquarium supplies ship - answered every one of My questions with patience & grace, did not talk down to Me or make Me feel stupid, and I left feeling happily hopeful that I might actually be successful in creating a fish-friendly safe & healthy environment. I am already envisioning My future fishy tenants, plus a snail & a sucker fish or two. Wish Me luck!! :-)

After that, we headed over to the bumper boats and the gentlemen working was so nice and helpful. I believe his name was Deon! That was a really fun experience and definitely nice on a hot day. After that, we did some go karts, I think you get a pretty decent amount of time to drive them. Then we went to the arcade played some games before heading on out. Overall, it was a nice time!

There were times staff kept putting back toys so quickly and frequently I was getting annoyed (in my head) because I had to keep getting boats and fish back out for him in the water area. I love that they switch out the sensory items in the art room throughout the month so it's a different experience each visit. Their Wonder Lab area with painting was sooo fun! It's too bad it was only seasonal. My son loves all of it - harvesting fruits and veggies in the farm, pushing his own cart in Trader Joe's, cooking in the restaurant, etc. It is truly a great, fun space for kids. Once, the CEO played in the construction area with him for a few minutes - that impressed me. They also regularly have special event days with dance and music demonstrations, author read alouds, etc. Members Only hour is the best time to visit (they open an hour early). Once 10:00 hits, the floodgates open and it's gets substantially more crowded. With all that said, we visited on a recent Sunday afternoon - never again! Every exhibit was in total disarray (every single toy on the floor and rarely even in the right zone), older kids zooming around on kid cars like scooters, a child climbing the fake fountain in the center and standing at the top (where were the parents?! No staff member present either...it was really dangerous). I've never seen Pretend City look like that before but if that's what it was like on my first visit it would scare me away! There's lots of parking but mostly in the back lot. The front lot gets full fast and many spots are reserved for other businesses. You can bring your own food/drinks to eat in their Cafe area or purchase some from vending machines. Wish they sold coffee... Again, amazing spot and 5/5 on weekday mornings. 1/5 on weekend afternoons.

I saw the blue blocks at some shopping malls and parks (not only in US but other countries) and my son loves it so I knew it would be perfect for my party since I had a limited space as well. I looked online and found very few people in US who works with the blue blocks and luckily one of the people was Becky in Orange County. How lucky! She was very professional and attentive to all my messages concerning my event. All kids enjoyed the blue blocks and they had to use their imagination to build whatever they want and it kept them really busy all afternoon!! Perfect!! We just put the blocks in my garage and voila! It became a simple, safe, educative and fun playground. I highly recommend OC Imagination.

Jarret showed up early to set up and though his generator didn't work, he had very long power cords for back up and made magic happen! It was also perfect that he had umbrellas on each end to provide shade for the seats. My son, his friends, and our friends had such a good time! Jarret was on the trailer the whole time to help the kiddos figure out the levers. He made sure there were gems, coins, or other trinkets in the scoops for the kiddos. He provided coins and gems and I added some dinosaur eggs in the mix. Jarret was great about his communication the entire time and very pleasant on the day of, as well. We were all super duper impressed with BookMiniDigger. I highly recommend!

Just revisiting this and realized Jarrett responded to my review!…read more Gosh I am usually pretty good about moving on from things but this *still* bothers me a year later, how awful and sad is that :( I was going to open a business at the union market tustin (closed now) several years back but the owners of that place were crooked and dishonest and stole thousands from me and several other small business owners, and I've even let that go lol! But something about this just still gets me. Honestly, I think it was the way Jarrett handled things after he flaked on my son's party that I can't let go of. I should have recorded how Jarrett spoke to me - it's still pretty vivid in my memory. In response to "as I said to you before" and "as I mentioned offline I am embarrassed and feel terrible that we missed your booking" Jarrett, while I appreciate the sentiment of your response, let me make a couple things VERY clear: YOU NEVER APOLOGIZED or took responsibility for how you treated me that day. The text messages I posted in my yelp review are literally the last correspondence we have. As I mentioned in my first review, I had to follow up with you to get the refund of my deposit. I'm not sure when you mentioned you felt embarrassed or terrible because all I literally heard on the phone when we spoke was you SCREAMING at me with excuses when I was just telling you how disappointed I was, and then I got hung up on. So disrespectful. Do you deny it? Because I noticed there are still no apologies or taking ownership for why you YELLED at me the morning of my son's party, minutes before it started and minutes before you were *supposed* to be there! I got off the phone in tears and shaking from how you spoke to me. My friend who was helping me at the party and my husband can testify. Look I get it, I can loose my temper too but I've never yelled at a total stranger, let alone a customer, the way you yelled at me. and when I do loose my temper, I always acknowledge and apologize to whoever I yelled at. (usually my spouse) I received not one follow-up message from you expressing any sentiment remotely close to an apology or admitting fault, wrongdoing, or acknowledgement that it wasn't right to yell like that. Honestly, if you had just apologized and taken responsibility for canceling instead of screaming at me, maybe the outcome for all of this would have been better. I'm glad you've taken measures to not let the "unforseen issues" cause you to cancel parties the morning of but hopefully you've also learned to control your temper and not yell at mother's who are just trying to throw a party for their kid. It seems like you've received many 5-star reviews since mine, wow that's great- I so deeply wish that could have been my experience too. While of course I believe in second chances and I do appreciate your offer of making this right, I just am pretty traumatized by the whole thing and truly wish things could have gone differently for us. I also don't know why my photos I uploaded of our conversation aren't showing up, seems like someone reported them and got them removed, but I'm reposting them again.
