When you're looking for stuff to do with your kids, you have 3 main questions:…read more 1. Will my kid have fun? 2. Will it make my kid tired enough to sleep? 3. Can I do this without spending a fortune? In the case of Jump Town, the answer to all 3 is: YES When you walk in, you'll remove your shoes, sign a waiver and pay your entry fee ($13 during the week, $15 on weekends). What's nice is that the price includes two free adults per child. Inside, you'll find massive bounce houses and trampolines designed to burn off all that preschool energy. Everything is free with the exception of a couple of video games or air hockey. There's a small room in the back with some building materials for kids who like to do that. There's a small fenced-in area with small play structures for really little kids. They do have a snack stand available, but you can bring your own food. They have 2 women's bathrooms and 1 for men. There are party rooms available. I think the right age for this place is 3-6. When we were there on a Sunday, there were a couple of bigger kids who don't really know how to watch out for little ones, so if your kid is on the small side, you might need to keep a close eye on them. If you'd like to save money, you can get a 10-pack of visits for $100. You'll probably be back, so this is a great value, especially if you have more than one kid.

What a great spot in the suburbs! I had no clue this was here until recently. Hidden in the…read morePavilion Community Center is an indoor play space, and even more wonderfully is a beautiful carousel. My daughter LOVES them so I surprised her with a visit here. She enjoyed playing at the indoor playground and I really appreciated that in addition to the large climbing and play maze they had a couple of small play structures for the littler kids. My own kid was just the right size that she could play pretty safely on both. The carousel was, of course, the piece de resistance. It is really beautiful. There are about a dozen and a half horses (zebra included) and a swan chariot for when you want to sit (and, since we did over a dozen rides, I did need to sit since I was so dizzy!). My only complaint is that there are no restraints on the horses. The other carousels we've been on have some sort of strap to wrap around, but not here. The carousel doesn't move at lightening speed of course but some added safety measure besides just me holding her on the horse would put me at ease. The place is available for rent, which is cool. For individual, single-day entry, it's only $6 which is one of the best bargains in the suburbs tbh. That's for unlimited rides. The worst part is the hours! They're only open Monday through Friday from 10-2, so that really limits the times we'll be able to visit unless I use PTO to come by. I've heard that they're doing some renovations or something though so who knows, perhaps it'll grow in popularity and they'll increase their hours.

Went here for my niece's 2nd birthday and honestly... I had no idea places like this even existed…read more It's such a cool spot for a kids party. There's a carousel (like a legit, big one with hand-painted horses) and a circus-themed play area with tunnels, slides, and all kinds of things for kids to climb around on. We had about 15-20 kids there, from toddlers up to around 8, and it was perfect, everyone had something to do the whole time. The carousel was probably the highlight. The bigger kids loved it, and even the little ones could ride with a parent, which was really nice. Also have to shout out the staff, they were super helpful with setup and cleanup, which made everything way easier. The space itself is really practical too, lots of tables, outlets (we plugged in a slow cooker for hot dogs), and you can bring your own food. We kept it simple with hot dogs and pasta salad and it worked out great. Overall just a really fun, easy place to host a party. Definitely recommend for kids 8 and under!

Completely Oversold and Ruined Our Family Day…read more We came to Astro Fun World on a rainy day, and unfortunately it was one of the most disappointing family outings we've had. The first warning sign should have been the 30+ people waiting just to purchase wristbands. With only one employee working the front counter, it took us about 20 minutes just to get inside. Looking back, we should have turned around right then. Once inside, it only got worse. Every attraction had an unbelievable wait. We started at the ropes course, where we stood in line for over an hour and a half with almost no movement. After 30 minutes, I sent my husband to take the kids to mini golf because it was obvious we weren't getting anywhere. Meanwhile, I stayed in line for another hour watching the go-kart line double in size while ours barely moved. The building was packed far beyond what it appeared to comfortably handle. The air conditioning couldn't keep up, making it hot, crowded, and miserable. Kids everywhere--not just mine--were becoming restless, crying, melting down, and asking to leave. Parents around us were frustrated and giving up after standing in line for long periods with no progress because their children simply couldn't take it anymore. What made it so disappointing wasn't just the long waits--it was the feeling that Astro Fun World continued admitting more and more guests without any regard for the experience of the people already inside. At some point, there has to be a balance between making sales and providing an enjoyable experience. Instead of spending quality time making memories with my family, we spent most of our visit standing in lines, sweating, calming disappointed children, and watching our day disappear. Family time is precious, and this outing was supposed to be fun. Instead, it left everyone frustrated, exhausted, and wanting to go home. I understand rainy days bring bigger crowds, but there should be better crowd control, staffing, and capacity limits. No family should spend the majority of their visit waiting in lines that barely move while continuing to watch more people pour through the doors. Sadly, this was a complete waste of time and money, and we won't be returning unless major changes are made.
