What parents say
Super cute little place. A baby section and the cutest little swing set that my extremely small daughter could get on and swing by herself. The only thing I would suggest to whoever runs it, maybe have your staff coming in and resetting the pretend play accessories after a few kids leave and new ones come in…(kitchen…
When my daughter was in the age appropriate range we went to busy bees and loved it!! She wishes there were more indoor playgrounds like it!!
Busy bees is a great place to take kids. The staff is always nice and they keep it clean. My grand daughters love to play here. They also always have fun events like Easter bunny pictures, Bluey Easter egg hunt which my girls loved and they have animals come at times for the kids to interact with in a clean safe…
I had my 5 year old daughter's birthday party here with 7 friends. They had a blast. A nice variety of equipment without being so large that they lose each other. There is a Domino's next door for easy food options.
