Note that time slots are every two hours so check the website before you show up. There will be a staff member (lifeguard) watching over the Aqua Park as long as someone is in the water. My kiddos enjoyed the Aqua Park but it wasn't big. Because there isn't water spraying on the inflatables, the inflatables can get really hot. Luckily, you can just jump into the water and track it back onto the inflatables. They spent 1.5 hours on the inflatables and thought it was enough. There weren't enough variety within the inflatables to entice the kids to stay longer.

We attended an adult night at the Aqua Inflatable Park. It was definitely fun but difficult for out…read moreof shape adults haha My biggest concerns were the shape of the park and the safety hazards. Many of the inflatables were very under inflated and boggy. Some inflatables were in need of repair with broken areas, specifically one of the trampoline looking pads had the mesh detached and could've easily caught someone's foot or have someone fall in between. The course was supposed to be attached like an obstacle course but the Velcro was not hooked up in many areas. There were a ton of ropes in the water so if you fell in, you were immediately tangled in ropes. I'm concerned that this is the normal and that children are also using this same course. Also, just know there are no lockers to put any valuables. They do have a changing room and an outdoor shower. Life jackets were provided. I appreciate the experience but probably won't come back.

It was 13 8&9year old kids and the 3 who hosted the party were so happy, patient, they really enjoyed the kids and the cooking. Lots of places have paid helpers who do their job at parties. But here, they were so engaging - it really made my sons friends feel welcome. Spills and loud voices didn't phase them, they all had such a kind way of redirecting the kids who needed some guidance. The best part for Mom and Dad was that we walked in and needed nothing. They did it all. Water, lemonade, snacks, decor, cupcakes, candles. Even a lollipop party favor. On a busy Fall Saturday with kids sports in full swing, this was a huge blessing to my husband and me. I would highly recommend this studio for camps and especially parties!

I delayed writing this post in hopes that by the end of the weekend Angie would have sent me an…read moreemail or called with an apology, but that never happened, so I'm here to leave my review on our experience at her place of business. I booked Flour Power to host my daughter's 11th birthday party with 15 children, and the entire experience was a major letdown. From the outset, communication was disorganized. The pricing listed online was misleading--what was advertised as a 16-guest package actually only covered 11 kids, with an extra $25 charge per additional child. The venue was tiny and cramped, far from what you'd expect from a business specializing in children's parties. I was given minimal time to set up my own decorations, and the limited space made it feel chaotic from the start. The cooking class was poorly planned and executed. Only four dough-making stations were available for 16 girls, forcing groups to sit and watch rather than participate. The activities were basic and boring, with little to no effort from staff to keep kids engaged. After the dough session, half the girls lost interest while waiting. Next was sauce-making and garlic bread, which was just spreading butter and Kroger parmesan on a store bought French loaf--another "group activity." The girls then sat bored for about 20 minutes while the sauce simmered. I asked Angie multiple times to play music to liven up the atmosphere, but the music was barely audible and she never fully fulfilled my request. A staff member's rude attitude stood out. Several mothers privately told me about her eye-rolling, glaring, and bossy tone toward the girls. Even some older girls commented on her unkindness. I considered addressing it during the event but wanted to avoid interrupting or causing anymore negativity. When it was time to check out, I asked Angie if she could show me my remaining balance. She opened her laptop and quickly clicked through a few screens. Before I could say anything, she landed on a page where she told me I could leave a tip. At that moment, I hadn't yet discussed my overall experience or shared feedback from myself and other mothers and athletes. This feedback was important hoping she would consider it to improve future parties I was caught off guard because nothing in the email confirmation mentioned gratuity, the party itself was already $700 and the way she pushed the tip in my face struck me as both unprofessional and tacky. Given our concerns about the evening and how forcefully she insisted on a tip, I told her we wouldn't be leaving one at this time. That's when things took a turn for the worse. She gave me a disgusted glare and said, "Are you serious? You're not going to tip us? Who does that? Don't you think we deserve a tip?" As a luxury business owner myself, I couldn't believe how she handled the situation--especially in front of my 11-year-old daughter and her friend. I was left speechless. Then, she slammed her laptop shut and said, "I'll just take it out of my own pocket!" I requested a private conversation away from children and staff to voice my concerns, all of which fell on deaf ears. Angie then continued to openly berated me in front of my daughter and staff as I made my way back to the front, questioning why I wouldn't tip even after insulting me multiple times during our private conversation. When I mentioned I'd leave an honest review based on her unprofessional & erratic behavior, she threatened to leave one about my business despite having no prior knowledge of me or my business. My daughter and her friend both left visually upset by the interaction & were even brought to tears on our way home. Overall, the event was overpromised and underdelivered. The space was cramped, outdated, the activities poorly managed, staff were rude, and Angie handled the situation unprofessionally. I would not recommend Flour Power for children's parties. EDIT: Added message in response to Angie. Angie- Your response contains several inaccuracies. The girls were engaged with each other, not the cooking class. During an attempt to address my concerns with you privately, you raised your voice and berated me for not wanting to leave you a tip based on our experience. Your behavior that evening included unprofessional remarks directed at me in front of your staff, my daughter, and guests. While I have documented the full series of events on my phone, the focus here is on the factual recounting of what occurred. To state that tips are appreciated but not expected is simply untrue. Given how the situation was handled, I'm sure you must feel embarrassed. However, responding to my honest review with denial and misrepresentation is not the professional way to address these concerns. I trust you will consider this feedback seriously. The best path forward is to acknowledge and address issues professionally rather than denying or misrepresenting how the event unfolded.

My little ones went to KALE for a few months. The turnover was high (yes, everyone is dealing with…read morestress and pressure during COVID) and the communication was inadequate. I interviewed lots of child care centers prior to settling with KALE. The director I met a month before was not the same when my kids started. When they got a new teacher for my kid's class, they did not inform the parents. Luckily, I paid additional ($40/month) for the cameras so I questioned my kiddo about the new teacher. Other parents had no idea for at least a month. There were 22 kids crammed into a room with one teacher and a floating teacher sometimes. As for the cameras, they did not charge monthly. They deducted the total from the refundable deposit. With the constant changes, organization is not a priority. I asked the director two weeks prior to Christmas what the plan was and she said she is just thinking about the next day. Yikes! One of my kiddos was not acclimating well to the new environment and she couldn't get any attention from the teacher since the teacher was wrangling almost 20 kids. My kid was usually alone and I didn't see the teacher trying to engage or encourage her to join the rest of the class. I pick up my little one at the same time every day right before nap time. Sometimes, they would have the kids wait by the door for over 30 minutes in the dark. Speaking of doors, they do not have conventional closed doors. All doors are short so you can hear everything going on in other classes. Onto the neutral/plus side, the school had some potential. The meals were on par with other places, the curriculum was admirably challenging, and they tried to set up events on Sundays but they were usually low turnouts. I wish the school all the best but I can't recommend it to my fellow parent friends and their kids.
