I like the idea of keeping your shoes on. I also like the coffee shop idea. I think these places should be 8 and under. My grandson loves these but most places cut off at 5. 5-8 still love to play. I don't think there should be a time limit. If you pay for a day off play ,to me that means opening to closing.
For playgrounds that require socks maybe disposable shoe covers would be a good option for those people who wear sandals or aren't willing to remove shoes that way they can remain clean and keep their shoes I don't like taking my shoes off outside because I need the foot support or my back hurts
I would love it if you started doing toy reviews of some sort! You have such a calming and chill energy, I love toy reviews but the other reviewers on youtube are really loud and intense, lol. We need people like you to do reviews!!
8:30 I think its awesome that you don’t require people to remove their shoes…. I have a disability and I need to wear leg braces (and shoes) in order to walk and unfortunately I was not allowed in any of the indoor playgrounds, trampoline parks, or other places like that in my area as a kid. I would have loved to play at your facility!
Girl the whole keys and locking your door thing I used to do that to, UNTIL and hear me out I watched someone else say “Always drop yours keys at the door after a you’ve locked it” he says “it’s like spilling a glass of milk and remembering you have to clean/ pick it up” same concept with your keys. If you drop them you have to pick them up! It definitely helped me, maybe it will help you. ❤
I wish there was one of these near me. The closest thing we have recently did away with most of their baby area and as my son is 18 months and just finally starting to walk independently I wouldn’t feel comfortable having him in with the bigger kids yet.
When my little sister was a toddler she had one of those block toys where you use the wooden hammer to hammer the blocks through the holes. She lost the hammer so my grandma replaced it with a real hammer. After that she was OBSESSED! The only three year old to have a hammer collection 😅 (She was always supervised and always used them appropriately)
I didn't realize that many places had a time limit! I've been looking at starting my own, and nowhere that I've taken my kiddo to have had a time limit. I usually try to take them around the time that they'll have like 2 hours or so to play and then we leave, but there are 3-4 that we go to semi-regularly that are kiddo's favorites that explicitly say no time limit play all day. I really love that!
Whenever I went to my grandmas house, we always went to like this indoor museum like play thing and our favorite part was the kitchen farm and the fire department
Great video! It would awesome to even the sound volumes of your speech and of the videos you put into your video. Cuz your speech is hard to hear sometimes and their videos are much louder 💗
I have been wanting to open something like this in my little area for so long, there’s nothing like it around here, but I have yet to figure out how I can financially make it happen
So I’ve now been searching tours of other indoor playgrounds because of this video. I really like how Jam Time has that cedar works play area in the front corner of the playroom If you were to do something like that, you totally could build DIY playhouses along that side wall where the flags are and set up the dramatic play inside the playhouses. Also that construction one would be super easy to build from that one playground as it’s just 2x4’s Also have you thought about adding a tube slide to your tower?
I think you need to say 23 months and younger, because the day a child turns 2 they are 24 months for an entire month. So technically if if the baby area if for 24 months AND younger it includes the first month of the child being two.
A lot of people with AFOs or other leg braces require shoes to be able to walk so making a place shoe free is making it not as accessible to people with physical disabilities
I have a question on your rules. If you had a parent with a very young child (1.5) and an older child (11-12) and the mother was physically disabled(in a wheel chair, something significant)- would you consider allowing the older child to help / supervise the baby in the play area in lieu of the mother who physically couldn't do it herself? I'm curious as to what you would think if you had a very calm, responsible older child who wanted to help the baby when mom couldn't do it herself.
