Pro Tips

  1. 1.Arrive right at opening on weekday mornings for the quietest experience and maximum space for your kids to explore.
  2. 2.Bring socks for all children as they're typically required for play areas, and pack hand sanitizer since kids will be touching lots of surfaces.
  3. 3.Consider visiting on Monday or Tuesday for smaller crowds compared to Fridays when many families kick off their weekends early.
  4. 4.Take advantage of the arcade games as a wind-down activity toward the end of your visit when kids start getting tired from climbing and running.
  5. 5.Note that the facility is closed weekends, so plan your visit for a weekday when you need an indoor activity option.

Best Time to Visit

Weekday mornings between 10:00 AM and noon offer the best experience with fewer crowds and fresh, energetic staff. Avoid late afternoons on Fridays when the space tends to fill up before the weekend closure.

What to Know

Moderately priced admission makes this an affordable regular activity. The facility is located on 6th Street in Park Slope, where street parking can be challenging, so arrive early or consider public transportation to avoid parking stress.

Seasonal Notes

Open year-round, making it a perfect rainy day or cold weather destination. The indoor setting is especially valuable during Brooklyn's harsh winters and hot, humid summer days when outdoor play is less comfortable.

Nearby Eats

Grab pizza at nearby Piccoli Trattoria on 6th Street for authentic Italian fare that kids love, or stop by The Chocolate Room for post-play treats and sandwiches that will satisfy hungry little ones.
