Amazing place for kids and parents! I took my kids here for a few hours today and they didn’t get bored the entire time. Plenty of activities for them to do, snacks, clean bathrooms! And I personally spoken with the owners and they are such nice people! I will definitely be taking my kids back soon.

My children had so much fun! So many activities! Their favorite was the slide into the ball pit they also loved playing hungry hippo on the game board thingy lol. They also loved digging in the different things to find the little toys!

We had a birthday party for our 4 year old here and they were absolutely amazing! The kids had a blast, they offered tons of additional add ons for party decor, I didn’t have to do anything but watch and enjoy! We will definitely be back for regular play and more parties! The owner was super sweet and it was very clean with tons of space for a larger group and a variety of ages!

We have brought our little guy here twice now and we have been extremely pleased both times we’ve been. The owners are the nicest people and really do enjoy being a safe and fun space for kids to come play. It’s awesome to be able to come and watch our child play and explore, all while being able to have constant sight lines. There’s so much to enjoy from the ball pit to the play structure. An added bonus is the seating and snacks available. The only thing I wish they had was diet versions of the sodas they offer, other than that it’s a wonderful place!

Just went to The Little Play Hut today for the first time with my 6 year old daughter. She stayed busy and entertained the whole time we were there and she did not want to leave. They have many fun activities along with imaginative play. What sets this place apart is that adults don’t have to pay to enter and there are many tables and areas for the adults to sit and watch their kids or even work. My daughter is pretty independent when it comes to imaginative play and wants to make friends with other kids over me playing with her, so this was the best set up for us. They also have coffee and tea and sodas for sale, along with baked goods. I plan to bring my 8 year old son next time as they have things for older kids including a Lego table, which he will love. It is clean and a very comfortable environment.
