"Jordan's Corner is a place I love. I'm not sure if I'm more grateful because my two-year-old son has a blast here or because I've met friends who have become some of the best in my life. We moved here from Mexico a year ago, and my son literally started crawling when we arrived. Every toy at Jordan's Corner serves a very specific purpose for each child's developmental stage, and I've witnessed the skills it has helped my son develop. I greatly appreciate the effort put into each of the activities, the environment, the characters, and the super-friendly staff. I'd also like to remind parents t"

"As a pediatric occupational therapist I knew I had to check out this inclusive play space centered around purposeful play and sensory experiences. It was amazing! There was a wide variety of open ended toys, things to climb and slides, swings, a ball pit, crash pad, sensory tiles, shopping carts and so much more. My 15 month old son and I had a blast! Jordan’s Corner employees were incredibly nice and helpful throughout our time there and were cleaning and organizing toys that littles had moved very often. We will definitely be returning even though it’s not close to where we live in Goodyear"
