Monkey Mania

If you’ve got a kid with energy to burn, this is the place they need to be. My 18 month old nephew has two speeds; fast and faster. This was an awesome place for him to run himself ragged. Until he ran himself into a table and the fun was over…
The big play area has some cool stuff in it. Lots of slides, cushioned rollers and hidey holes *just* big enough for supervising adults to squeeze through, and in the centre a big funnel that sucks up and spits out balls. This delighted the kids to no end.
There’s also a smaller kids area for the 1 – 3 year olds and a jumping castle for bigger kids. They say suitable from 1 – 12, but I’d guess probably 1 – 9 is more accurate.
There is an option to leave your kids there while you shop, but none of the [very] young attendants came anywhere near the play area. Not sure if it was because there were no unsupervised kids at the time, but probably only a decent option for older kids that can look after themselves.
I don’t know what the standard pricing is for these kind of places so I thought $ 10 per kid for 1 – 2 year olds was a tad steep given their attention spans. It’s $ 4 for supervising adults which covers the ‘complimentary’ drink. Then again, he loved it and will no doubt sleep well after the run around so I’m sure his Mum got her money worth.
