What parents say
Great place got toddlers to play, engage in different activities, read, climb, pretend, climb, and socialize. Great place for parents to spend quality time with their kiddos, and take a break sipping o. A good coffee/espresso.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an absolute gem of a play space! We visited from out of town, Google kids play space and this studio was one of the top five that popped up! I was beyond impressed with how exceptionally clean everything was. The owner is so friendly and welcoming—plus, she makes an incredible cup of coffee!
I brought my nine month old son here for the first time. He is crawling a lot and my place is kind of small so I wanted to bring him somewhere where he could crawl around and explore safely. The space was perfect! I will definitely bring him again and I think he’ll enjoy it more and more as he gets older.
We loved The Social Play! We visit a lot of these play cafes and this one easily became our favorite!! As a child therapist I can see the detail in everything the owner put into each play section for it to be developmentally engaging, educational, and fun! My son had so much fun.
