I think it’s a great space and fun for kids. Management needs to pay closer attention at the broken items and cleanliness. A few of the carts that go on the tracks are broken. Many balls in the ball pit are broken and should be cleaned and replenished and I would suggest to clean where you can see. Dust build up under slides and intern are not nice but all and all. My grand kids love this place!!
My kids absolutely LOVE the little gym! The coaches are so patient, caring and knowledgeable! Worth every penny when you see the smiles on their faces!
Our daughter has been going to Little Gym for almost 3 years now and we just LOVE everything about this place! Can’t say enough good things about their curriculum and the staff! A true gem in London!
I cannot start to say how much I appreciate every syngle one of you. I do not want so single out one person as you are all absolutely fantastic ! I have a spirited autistc child who needs a lot of different understanding and views. You made her, and me, her mom, absolutely fantastic and confident. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Fun place to visit with children, mostly geared toward 4 and up - great way for kids and kids alike to get out some energy and get in some exercise! Relatively clean facility with decent sitting and viewing areas!
Was here for a birthday party. Very large space and this is one of the nicer play structures. They even have a small trampoline section. The play structure is designed well to be maze like and has lots of turns to keep things interesting. Great for ages 3 to 7 year olds, adults had fun joining in too. Great slides. 👍
The place has very old games and many are out or order, not much variety, play area is clean but small. Staff are nice and friendly. It is a one time visit place just to try it but nothing is interesting in there.
Went for a bday party but I was disappointed. The place is dirty and the ball pit had a bunch of broken balls inside. The equipment is filthy and gross. I feel like it’s never cleaned. The party room that was rented out was squished even though there were two rooms rented for the party. No space to comfortably walk through the rented rooms because of the layout and how they pack chairs in.

It seems like this place went downhill because they stopped trying since it became popular.

The place is PACKED. There is no safe limit.
The toddler area is tiny. Big kids will have fun regardless but it’s not safe to have so many kids cramped in the space running into each other. One kid got hurt because there’s not enough room for so many kids to run around & unfortunately he got bumped in the busy crowd of kids & fell back and hit his head on the concrete because the foam mats don’t cover enough floor space.
Great place for birthday gathering. Arek from the front desk Was amazing and helpful and very cheerful.
The staff here are amazing and go above and beyond. The kids love coming here and always have fun. Not overly expensive compared to other play places, especially on week days. Great place to take the kids to run off some energy while parents can enjoy a coffee.
We love the facility here, the play structure is very nice. They have a tubing slide for kids to play, it's fun! This indoor playground can even cater a bit older kids like 9-10 year old. There's a climbing wall like structure too. My kids had fun. However, the staffs were rushing to hush us out at 5:19pm even our stay was until 5:30pm. Even we were still eating, they wanted to clean up already. I understand they would have other parties going on but still, when people were still eating, give a bit space? Moreover, stars were taken off because the washroom condition was extremely bad. I smelled the strong, foul smell even at the corridor of the washroom. I gave up changing diapers for my 2-month-old baby.
I organized my daughter’s birthday there and the experience was amazing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The table was available earlier and they provide everything according to the reservation. All the kids really enjoyed and didn’t wanted to leave. Would recommend them to anyone that wants to throw a party for kids, I’ll definitely do it again.
just had my own birthday party here, if i could i would give this place 0 stars.

first off, the service we got was absolutely terrible. when we got there, we were told that our party host was not there, so we had to wait around 20 minutes to get checked in. however, the same girl that told us we couldnt get checked in earlier was the one who checked us in, so there was virtually no reason why we had to wait 20 minutes. when i did finally get checked in, i was told i had to wait another 20 minutes for our table, but those 20 minutes ended up being around 35-45 minutes, meaning we were able to go to our table late and not at the reserved time. when it was time to go to our table, the workers explicitly asked me where my parents are, when i had previously told them that i was the organizer for my own birthday party. when we did get to the table it was very squished. there were not enough plates, cutlery, and water bottles for the amount of people that i booked for.

when we finally got to jumping around, there was a group of children coming up to my friends and i calling us slurs, such as the c-slur since most of us are asian. i mentioned this to a staff member, even pointing them out, but they did absolutely nothing and shrugged it off. my friends and i were very offended by those childrens actions, but the staff did not seem to care about that.

we were told to only have one person on an advanced trampoline at all times, even though every single one of us were adults, this made us not have as much fun as we should/could have. we signed a waiver and everything, so therefore we know we are liable for anything and we should be able to do what we want.

i was charged more for adding an extra person on the day of than when i was booking it, which is completely unreasonable in my opinion. i was charged $40 online when i was originally booking it, however when i was there today i was charged almost $50 per person when i was adding them. that makes no sense to me because adding one more person should not really affect anything.

the whole place is super crowded. i lost my friends multiple times. children kept running into me and interrupted my jumping by running right in front of me. i understand that the children are trying to have a good time, but i felt like the staff were paying extra attention to my friends and i, even when we were minding our own business, simply because we're older kids.

also, the washrooms are quite literally the worst washrooms i have ever seen in my entire life. myself and another one of my friends ended up throwing up because the smell inside was absolutely terrible. for the price of this place i feel like they should at least be able to afford a febreze air freshener.

overall the service was absolutely terrible. i could not recommend this place to ANYONE. it was a complete waste of not only our time but our money as well.
We hosted my son’s 5th birthday party at Aerosports. The staff were attentive and very helpful. So friendly and kind to the kids. Easiest Birthday party I have ever thrown! I would definitely recommend it to any parent looking for a fun stress free party 🎉
Honestly the best bakery I have ever been to in my life. Super amazing staff, and even more adorable pastries and drinks. First time to Canada I had to check this place out because of TikTok! Great place for a first date ✌️😌
My Daughter had her birthday party at Flying squrill and it was amazing and fun and a decent price $ for all the things you get, she had the best time with her friends!
The staff Is Amazing my only complaint is the wash rooms need more attention & Parking is not the best, Other wise great fun place and fun upbeat staff. My family and I will definitely come back.
Fun indoor play area for kids. My kids enjoyed playing here. You can bring your own grip socks if you already have one otherwise you'll need to buy from them. There's a seating area for parents who don't want to buy a ticket for themselves.
We just did our sons birthday here tonight! We had the best birthday experience I could ask for. I definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a good time and a fair price to jump. Birthday packages are fair and great they’re amazing with communication to make the experience the best ever. I’m beyond happy with the experience we received. Especially from our host Olivia! Thank you Aerosports. We are definitely going to be back for our daughters birthday!!

We just did our daughter’s birthday here today! Again the best experience with our host Olivia. Thank you for making this a great birthday for my daughter. This place is the absolute best!!
Always a fun place to take kids. Used to work with tokens and tickets. Sometimes the machines ran out of tickets.

NOT ANYMORE. They switched to a card system that works fairly well. No anxious kids in front of the games wondering if they would get their tickets.
These cakes are so tasty and cute. Very simple and clean looking. There is a variety of Asian-inspired cheesecake flavours, making this place unique. Their cheesecakes not excessively rich like other places. Ordering can be done online. Pickup was smooth. They offer themed afternoon teas which looked very interesting but I have no had the chance to try yet. There's a bunch of adorable knickknacks around the store too!
This place is absolutely filthy. Stay away. The washrooms also smell like urine and poo and the smell travels throughout half the playground. Jungle Land just down the street is way better
Tldr; Good large indoor playground with optional Arcade Area.

6/10 playground size
5/10 arcade area (no tickets come out, prizes closed)
8/10 competitive pricing
10/10 reception staff friendly and helpful
10/10 cleanliness (compared to many)
10/10 trampoline area

No tickets for expensive arcade play. Party bookings slightly more expensive than others in the area. Beautiful mezzanine party room but $100 extra charge for it. They offer 1 extra pizza and offer cake with most party packages, which is better than other places. As of summer 2023, a party with upgraded mezzanine, 20 kids and $40 extra to bring your own food. Comes out to about $1,000. Each extra kid is $14 and adult is like $7.

Staff was friendly and a random days drop in is fun and worth it. They’re upgrading their area, so management cares about cleanliness and keeping things fresh.

One exit, so the play area is safe to take your eyes off your kids if you’re at the entrance. 4/5 rating overall
Took my two toddlers here to meet up with friends. All the kids had an amazing time. The price is super reasonable and the climbing zone is amazing. I also love the parent seating areas, the couches make it so relaxed and easy to chat and watch my kids at the same time.

There are a lot of extra pay rides and games. The kids are drawn to them and see other people riding and want to ride too. Bring lots of loonies if you don't want to have that battle all day. I also struggled with the fact that it's all open except the rides hallway, which is tucked away from the rest of the space. It made it so I couldn't always watch both my kids from the same spot, meaning I wouldn't be able to come with my kids without my spouse or another adult to help supervise.
I had the most amazing experience hosting my daughter's 1st birthday party at Playtopia! Opting for a private party was the best decision ever – having the entire place exclusively for us created an incredible atmosphere. The staff's level of accommodation and helpfulness was exceptional, ensuring everything ran smoothly.

Both kids and adults were thoroughly entertained throughout the event. The trampoline was an absolute hit, spreading joy and laughter among the little ones. And let's not forget the arcade games – they added an extra layer of fun for everyone, creating a playful and energetic vibe.

In a nutshell, Playtopia provided an unforgettable celebration that perfectly catered to all ages. I couldn't be happier with the experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic venue to host a memorable event!
Today, quite by chance, I discovered an enchanting site, inviting contemplation and meditation. The Humanics Sanctuary is a magical place where statues invite you to reflect on living together, respecting all religions and cultures, and loving Mother Nature. A must-see!
We just celebrate the 8th bday party of my daughter in Fun Park. Its our first time to held our party in amusement centre like this and we did a right decision. Staff are amazing. We had problem with the food we order and they let us stay longer than we booked. We are beyond thankful for making our experience memorable. We definitely refer them to our friends and family. We will book our next party with again. 🥰😍
We celebrated my son's birthday here. We absolutely loved it!!!! It was the perfect place to host our son's birthday. It was clean and the staff are beyond amazing. They are so accomodating and very helpful with helping us set up and even during the party. They gave us recommendations on how to setup so everything runs smoothtly! All the kids and even adults had so much fun! The slides were the highlight of the party with the kids and adults! I will definitely be hosting more parties here in the future!! The best place to host a child's birthday! You won't regret it!
One of my friend and I took our kids to Koalakidz and it was super fun couple of hours for the kids! The facility is spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with plenty of seating for us parents to relax while the kids play.

My kids loved the slides, mini soccer and mini basketball but there were plenty of other things to do like tunnels to play hide and seek, ride and slide, and electronic games. The setup was colorful and there were plenty of interactive elements for the kids to blow off steam and have fun at the same time.

The staff at Koalakidz were wonderful. They were friendly, attentive, and clearly committed to ensuring that all of the kids were having a safe and enjoyable time. I appreciated the fact that they were always keeping an eye on the play areas and cleaning up any spills or messes promptly.

Overall, I would highly recommend Koalakidz indoor playground to anyone looking for a fun and engaging place to take their kids. The combination of great facilities, good play equipment, and helpful staff make it a fun destination for families in the GTA. We will definitely be back!
My three year olds and I first time here today and it was perfect. As someone who gets nervous about the huge jungle gyms at other play based centres this is perfectly geared towards kids of smaller ages. This is the first play centre my girl has felt comfortable going into alone. You can see your child and instruct them from below, and there is no weight limit if you need to go up in the jungle gym with your child to help. We felt very safe exploring and there’s so many different activity’s. The jumping area was a favourite as well. We had a great time and I was able to relax and watch her have fun and make friends. 10/10 experience. Coffee and food options are slightly sub par but very very cheap so we appreciate that so much. 1$ juice boxes for the win. Looking forward to returning.
Nice place to spend time with kids. Big enough and has lots of options to choose where to go, and what to do.
But one suggestion for owners, do mandatory cleaning after each work day. Vacuuming and glass surface cleaning. At least. Last 3 pictures will explain why I pay attention to it.
I discovered this sculpture park by accident after reading a local guidebook. The sculptures are gorgeous, the forest walk very tranquil, and the staff member who welcomed us was friendly. A hidden gem in the greater Ottawa area.
**update** it's awesome to come here on a PD day from school or during the week. Energy level is a lot more low key. My 3yo had the time of his life.

Extremely reasonable in prices. Tons for the kids to do! I would say it's best for 5 and above as the energy inside is really intense lol but they do have a few chill spots for the younger crowd.

This is the place you'll want to take your littles to all winter long for sure.

I wish they could get their arcade area a bit bigger and some more little kid ride ons.
Very nice place to see various sculptures outside on a quite walk. Walk is around 1.5 km with statues and information displays for each section. Certain sections are in progress. There is little picnic area. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Don’t expect there has indoor adventure zone in Granville Island 🏝. Although the place is little bit small, it has all the kids love bouncy castle 🏰 , videos games 🎮, horse 🐎 rides. My Bella love it 😍and it is easy to win the tickets🎟 and price 🙌😍
A little far from residential areas, Play Away is a socks-only facility that has 4 areas: a general play area, a toddler area, a small arcade and a large sized "bubble play area" (essentially a bouncy mat). The general play area is safe and has a few interesting spots.

Entry prices are really fair and it is not very crowded.

Food and drinks are served here. They are alright and again, not overly priced. There are decent seating areas for parents and more importantly, the facility is designed with breadth and so it is easy to watch your kids from afar.
Ordered a custom cake from Oishiii Sweets. Tiffany was very friendly and accommodating. She designed the cake just the way I wanted! I was able to choose flavours from her list and they were delicious. I would definitely order again.
