    Hands down my 10 year old's and my favorite thing to do together is go to Yucandu. We've been well over a dozen times on our own, she's participated in many Kid's Night Out (she gets to make art, and my husband and I get a date night( win win!)), and holiday workshops, had a birthday party there that her friends still talk about 2 years later, and I've had a blast with a girlfriend (and wine!) at a ladies craft night. The staff has always been warm and welcoming, able to provide ideas and help if needed but also not pushy if you have your own ideas. The quality of the items is terrific, and I can't emphasize enough how great it is that the mess stays at Yucandu and not my house!

    My review is not based on the price or quality of projects in the studio my review is based on the service or lack of customer service that we experience during our visit to you can do art studio. So the concept of this art studio is very cool the execution is not. I understand that some people come in here to work on existing projects every week and our expert but this business needs to work on the beginners who are walking into the first time don't unders stand where things are don't know the procedures don't know how to begin etc. We came in on a Tuesday in December never had been inside had no idea where to begin from the from the get go I personally felt like an imposition to the two ladies that were working there. They were more interested in sitting and working on their own projects then walking us through what the process looks like at the studio. There was one lady who is blonde and there was one lady who was Brunette. The blonde lady was not very nice at all in fact she was mean. I can imagine if I had a small shy child that they would be terrified of the ladies in there. Not a welcoming vibe at all. Just kind of passive aggressive comments as we went around annoyed by our questions annoyed by our requests etc. etc. if I were a rich person I would just knock off this concept and fill the studio with kind bubbly welcoming young artists who want to work with people who are not as comfortable in an art studio as they are. There are a lot of things at the store for example there's a lot of stuff everywhere which can be overwhelming and is frankly confusing. Not to mention that I made a $40 pencil holder. Now I totally get the studio fees I understand but if I'm paying $40 for pencil holder I want to have a positive experience with the staff that are working there. I don't want to feel like I don't belong or I am annoying them with my questions. Also there's no real clean place to hang clothes or purses so if you have any nice clothing or nice bag with you leave it in the car. I just felt like the experience could've been a lot better and process could be more clear OK you have to paint this and then you have to put the sealant on it and that this is what you do when you get to that. And then this is what you do once it's fully painted and more direction granted some people don't need that but that's why you need to have a beginners kind of guide to these projects. For $40 for pencil holder I don't want to feel bad asking someone for help when I'm paying for a studio fee. Overall not a great experience.

    Activate was such a fun and entertaining experience!

Our group ranged from 8 to 28 years old and everyone had a great time staying active, laughing, and challenging ourselves. It's definitely one of those places where you don't even realize how much of a workout you're getting because you're having so much fun. The only thing I wish was a bit better is the cooling situation outside of the room! After working up a sweat, some extra AC or fans would have been really nice for a quick cooldown. That said, it didn't take away from the overall experience. We had an amazing time and will absolutely be back for more!

I reserved tickets online. We were about 10 mins due to getting on the wrong train. I called to let them know and change my time but was told as long as you arrived within 20 minutes of scheduled time, you're good to go. Honesty, it was a fun time. We got hot and tired fast, especially with some of the games. They have free lockers to put Some of the games are very active with running around. Comfortable shoes and clothes you can move around in, is a must! I like how each of the rooms have several games to choose from, some are collaborate and some are competitive. 75 minutes was not enough time. This is something a family could do for 2 hours or so as time flies quickly. A feature I like is that is no one is waiting to go in the room you're in, you can continue playing. This is great as you can "level up" in games. Staff we encountered were friendly and helpful! I wish there was a place like this where I live, in NC.

My brain wasn't working correctly and we missed our tour time but the guide was kind enough to take us along during their tour. Mind you, we got there an hour and a half early but the brain cells died or something. Anyway, we got to pet the Clydesdales and had a close encounter with one. These horses are huge and very beautiful. We got to see a couple of them getting bathed and they were so gentle and well-behaved, I was quite impressed! The tour includes a free adult beverage or water for those under 21 or those who prefers a water instead. Our tour guide was amazing. I think she said her name was Linda. She was very kind and didn't even want any gratuity explaining that her role is a volunteer one. She's a retired educator and you can tell with the patience she had with her rather large tour group. The ticket price for the tour was pretty reasonable for the experience you're getting. You do pay for parking but you can take the tram for free to the village area for more activities. Unfortunately, we ran out of time the day of our tour so we didn't make it up to the village. You can take the trails (bike or on foot) and visit the farm though! When it's nicer outside, I fully intend to do so.

Also, it's very open and I can see all parts of the park so even thought it's not fenced, it just feels safe. The kids love that part of it is a tree that you climb inside. Bathrooms are close so great for potty training toddlers who have to go RIGHT NOW. There are 4 picnic tables in the pavilion, 2 drinking fountains and some sunshades with benches. We had our kids' birthday party there and it went extremely well. Super affordable to rent! The only downside is one parking lot is a flat trek to the playground but a longer one and the other parking lot is fairly close but you have to walk down a big hill and so then also back up. So anyone who is more limited with ambulation or someone who fatigues very quickly may not find this playground particularly accessible. Otherwise it is a super fun and simple playground!

We were the only ones on the playground the entire time-about an hour. Meanwhile we were able to meet a bunch of nice dogs going on long walks. Oak Tree Park pavilion is available to rent through the Brentwood Park system. It's pretty cheap ($60 for non-residents, $40 for residents). There are four picnic benches under the shelter, where the bathrooms are also located.

Parking is free if you're a member, if not you'll be charged unless you walk over , shuttle or park somewhere else nearby free.

We were worried he would be scared, but he was so happy lol. The rest of the museum was pretty cool, but it focuses more on older kids so the small ones didn't have much to interact with. The outdoor area about agriculture was nice (there are chickens!) and a giant tractor to play on. Another interesting part was past the bridge called the Vault. It was just collections over time, and all over the world. If you have time to spend all day, it would be cool, but we're going to wait a little bit until my toddler is older. Parking is $15, but not bad compared elsewhere.
