    WOW! Highly recommend. We have an almost four year old and a 10 mo old and there was stuff for both of them to do. The place was INCREDIBLELY clean (which surprised me with the amount of kids that go through the toys and crafts). The staff was kind too. I immediately left there texting all my mom friends this is a must do. I’m also not sure if the staff enforces kind and gentle play but there was a family with lots of kids causing trouble and the parent was not paying attention AT ALL. The kids were taking their shoes off, grabbing toys from the younger kids, and not sharing. Again, not sure if the staff stepped in to say something but I as a parent who does enforce kind play, I truly appreciated it. This is way more than a five star review!
