Noelle Enders
a week agoSant was our party assistant and he was very professional and kind. We went here to celebrate my oldest daughter’s (turning 8) birthday party. We had the royal room. He helped me put up decorations before the party, helped pass out pizza slices and cake slices during the room part. I’m thankful for his help as my husband had to stay at home with our other younger two and it was much appreciated. They ran out of bathroom show covers as well and another employee went to get them right away after we told them. We’ve been here often with our own family and the party went great. I would recommend this facility for parties!
Melissa Carponelli
3 weeks agoWe absolutely love this place. We drive 40 minutes to come play here. I have a 6 year old and 2 year old and they never get bored with all there is to play with. We have recommended Hyper Kidz to everyone we know. It’s a great place for them to get their energy out.
Catherine Aguilar
a month agoThis place had lots for my kids to run around and explore on a cold winter day. The larger play area was fun to explore with them and was clean. The smaller areas for toddlers and babies were also really nice. The only downside is you can't bring in your own snacks and they don't have much variety.
Courtney Zmich
a week agoThe place is huge! Clean! And so much fun! I was able to sit and relax while the children played. Staff was helpful and respectful. Kids who are missing their parent are called out from a loudspeaker. Absolutely will return again and again!
Mark Stromberg
3 months agoTook my 1 year old son here for the first time in preparation for the winter. Hyper kidz is an absolute blast for the kiddos. The building is huge which makes it nice not being cramped next to tons of people the whole time. There are 3 areas inside that are age appropriate play equipment. Everything is cushioned and kid safe. I never felt worried once while we were playing. Price is fair for what they offer. Will be making this our indoor winter playground.
