Reviews of The Wonder Place (Park)

Carrie Shamblin

A great place to take younger kids. I have been many times and the staff is always nice and helpful. It is clean and has many options for play including a stage and puppet theater with props and custumes and an arts and crafts room. You can leave and come back on the same day for only one admission charge. The vending machine has healthy snacks and drinks (some are organic). They also have a party room for birthdays. There is one door for entering and leaving and it has a notification sound when opened (and an employee watching it). Kids can spend hours here and never run out of things to do.

This place was alright. It has several areas for kids to play. There is a water area, sand table, tree house, grocery store, restaurant, stage, dress up area, puppet show window, craft room, train set, blocks, etc. It was decently clean for being such a big indie place for little ones. This is not for older kids. There are not many comfortable places to sit. I recommend having a day to fill since it costs $17.50 for 1 adult and 1 child.

Good for children really boring for teens

Paris Miller

My kids love this place...

Mia Kamille Foreman

This place is pretty enjoyable for children 1-8. There are multiple areas for them to explore, create, and use their imaginations.However, I do think it's pretty ridiculous to charge adults because EVERYTHING is for younger children. Parents are basically paying to stand around and watch your children play. I think this business would get more business if the adults were free or were to pay less than $5. Paying to stand around and watch your kids is crazy.It's like paying to stand and watch your children play with other children at the park . There's NOTHING for adults to do, but stand or sit around until their kids get worn out.

Nice

probably the worst YouTuber

Perfect for taking kids who just want to play

Mildred Foster

My grand children had a wonderful time

MandM Adventures

Our twin one year olds LOVE this place! It's colorful and so much for them to do. Especially the splash table!!! The prices are fair.

Dan Hennessey

Our 19 m/o granddaughter had the time of her life at the Wonder Place! Lots of happy children in the place. Staff was friendly and helpful. One member of the staff never stopped picking up scattered toys the entire time we were there. She was also cleaning and disinfecting as she went.

deepthi maya

Nice place to spend time with your kids

Jeremy Rhodes

Great place for the toddlers to run off energy. Lots of things for them to do. My boy was of course interested in playing with the great train set but there is something for every taste and every kid!

We had a wonderful experience at The Wonder Place! We patronized twice before having our daughter's 1st party here and the quality of service was exceptional! Each of the staff members that we met and worked with were awesome, especially Janae...she was so thorough and thoughtful that we requested her as our party helper and she went above and beyond. All of our guests (from 11 months to senior) were pleased as well.

Marvin Brown

The kids enjoyed it greatly it is a nice really you learning center we thought it was just wonderful thank you.

Love this place! Always so clean and so many options for any age group. This has been a "go-to" for my son and me since he has been 6 months old. He is now two!

Mark S. Barnes, Jr.

A good rainy day spot for us. It's nice that you only pay for the first adult, but it's a bit pricier than other similar places we've been. It's worth it for the variety of imaginative play areas and convenient location. The water and sand tables are great. I like to see play areas that we wouldn't have at home. Staff is great although they have trouble keeping up with maintaining play areas on busy days. You might find that all your dolls and dollhouse furniture is over at the train table. My daughter gets plenty of physical exercise on the climbing ramp and slide. The art room is also a nice space for quiet creation. A sweet, cheerful place to play.

Maria Luisa Luce

My kids love it, it's a really good place to go and let them play! I whis it was cheaper so I could go more often.

Jason Smith

Little man had a blast. Reasonable price for a day out with the kid

Sweetheart JY

Very good place for the kids. But wished they had more to offer.

Josiahs Demingo

All around a decent place and I will tell my friends to use.

Angie Dusty

Excellent place for 2-6 years old or so. My son loves going here whenever we are in Little Rock. Friendly staff!

Laura Lovell

Good for kids to get rid of energy

luke s

Overall a good place. We had a lot of fun. A couple things to note though. The attendants don't pick up anything during the time you're there. The place is a disaster. Yes, kids make huge messes, but a lot of places we have been before have someone helping constantly pick up. It's dated, and could use a big renovation soon. They don't allow food inside understandably, and say you can use their "healthy" vending machines, but they are all 100% empty. The stairs leading to the off limits second floor are only blocked by a little kids table, and were left completely unsecured. This place could be pretty awesome, just with some TLC and employees who are attentive instead of just earning a paycheck by sitting around gossiping. Still a great place to visit, just don't expect anything other than average.

Heidi O

Pretty neat place to take young kids.

l g

My boys age 5 and 1 loved this place. Something to do for both boys from the dress up room, market place, water boats, air tubes, sand box to the train table , never an "I'm bored" moment.

Lashunda

Great place to take kids 6 and under....daycare feel just need some updating and cleaning

Carlas Smith

Great place for young kids, toddler to Kindergarten, to explore and use their imagination.

Angie Carter

10/10 would recommend for small children. I went with a group of kids ages 1.5 - 8 years old. They all had a blast. I enjoyed watching my toddler have so much fun in a safe environment.

Lina Patel

Fun for all age

Portia Casey

Had my daughters 1st bday there!! Excellent!

Timothy Allen

My son really had a great time here.

Tiffany L

We just took our 19 month old son to play there and blow off energy. The staff were very friendly and everything was clean. He had a blast, there was so much to do for all ages. We will definitely be back.

Peyton Rose

This place is great for toddlers! My daughter loves it! The owners and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Highly suggest letting your little one have a good time at the Wonder Place!

Mimi Penn

Love it. Great place to let your toddler run free.

Noel Hall II

Great place for younger children to play inside.

Sean Sanders

My son really had a great time. What am i saying i had a good time too. Great place.

Mom

This was highly disappointing. My kids have more toys and more fun at home. I would not waste your money.

Key Personality

Very fun just a little too busy

Flocka Flame

So much to do for a child. My son had a great time

Sheri Nicholls

Had a blast at my grandsons birthday!!

Nicole Kiel

My 3yo son played for 2.5 hours and loved it! His favorite areas were the water and sand tables.

Rachel Waltz

Great indoor play place! Lots to do, my 7 year old enjoyed it as much as my 4 year old.

nichole dewald

Lots of creative activities for younger children. My 8,7,5,4 year olds all had a blast.

Floyd Bloodworth

There is so much for kids to climb & do here.

KDDORMAN

MY DAUGHTER LOVES THIS PLACE! SHE PLAYED FOR HOURS AND DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE. As parents however, we were a little disappointed with the costume/theater/puppet area as the costumes had excessive wear and need to be replaced. Also to have been charged as a parent to come in when our daughter is the one playing was frustrating.

Zachary Brown

Had a awesome time here

El-Lexis Scott

My son was 5 he was kinda too big for it be enjoyed it

Don Wise

Lots of fun for the children.

Brian Reed

It was dirty over priced and everything looks grubby in womens rest room fire sprinklers right head level needs alot of improvement we will not b going back not for the price their asking 1 adult and 1 child 1750 it was upsured not one staff member asked how we where or checked on any of us parents or children there was one black young girl who cleaned up and was friendly out of 4 working in this place i dont recommend it for families....

Lila Gillham

If you have access to a young child, you really must take him or her to this wonderful Wonder Place.

Adriana Castillo

I loved this place for my kids this is a clean and educational environment. This is specially adequate for toddlers or kids between 1-6 years old.

Stephani VanHooks

it was ok.. staff never smiled until we left. Party prices are over priced but I don't think I will recommend for birthday parties

David Seger

My kid never wants to leave

Ashley Stewart

Prefect for one and half year olds.

Morgan Pepper

This place is so great for kids it has everything a child could imagine my granddaughter loved it and so did her mom and me Pawpa

Savannah Wrench

Very open, lots of interactive toys and things to experience

Leah Moore

Very clean and had lots of cute stations. My 2 year old loved all the different toys. It was a great place to hang out while we waited for family appointment at the VA.

Brit H.

This was our best visit. There were three young ladies there continuously cleaning and sanitizing as the children were playing. They did a fabulous job. As soon as the kids would leave one area. They would come and clean. I wish I would of gotten their names. In times past, I've never seen their employees clean the way these young ladies did. Kudos to them!

Brittany Adams

This was a really nice place to take my 2 year old she had a blast, but the price was just way too high. It should not cost no more than $5. The vending machine did not have any thing to chose from. Other than the price and no choice of snack my kid enjoyed herself so I guess that is all that matters.

Jason Gallegly

Best place to have toddler birthday. The staff are all so wonder-ful.

jessica anderson

At first I thought it may be a little pricey but decided to bring my 5-year old daughter anyway bc of the chance of rain for the day. We stayed for about 2 hours and she had a blast. Looking back, it was well worth the money spent. It appears to be very clean and is also very spacious. There are so many different areas with different types of interactive play equipment, such as a water table, sand table, play area with Slides and stairs, a tiny River Market setup, a small café, a reading nook, A neat light up table, and a bunch of other fun things to do. They also have a cute gift shop that sells Melissa and Doug products. It was our first time visiting and the woman at the front desk was very sweet and informed me where the restroom and the vending machine were located right away just in case we might need something while we were playing. She was very informative. Will definitely go back if we get the chance in the future.

Anna Haslauer

This is such a fun place to bring little kids

Sabarish Bapu

Good place for birthday parties

Barry McBroom

Very nice place for kids

Katherine Rasmussen

Fun for parents, too! Stations for art, reading, supermarket, vet, theatre, water play. Area for age 2-below. Seating area to feed your baby, or kids need a snack break. Plenty of seating throughout for adults. Clean, bright, colorful. Friendly staff.

Bryan W

Great place to take the grandkids

Andre Akins

Had a great celebration for my nephews first birthday. The staff was organized, friendly, and attentive to my party’s needs. I’d recommend this place to anyone.

Kaila Dorman

I give this place 3 stars as it is mediocre. Unfortunately times like now when the flu is going around we avoid this place like the plague since every time we've been here the attendants did not keep an eye on toys that were being chewed or slobbered on by other kids which is an obvious quick way to spread germs. They are usually too busy on their cell phones at their desk or talking among each other. Also everything is usually a catastrophic mess while staff just hang around at the front desk. There is never any supplies in the craft room so we usually don't spend anytime in there. Would be great if the WonderPlace would remodel as it is outdated. It could be great like the children's museums in Memphis, Fayetteville and Texas. Also, I find it more than irritating that parents who don't play with the equipment have to pay for themselves, yes it's an easy way to earn a buck by charging this way but you don't have anything for the parents here.

Lashonda Wilson

My son absolutely enjoyed it so

Tamie Curtsinger

Great for kids

Esmeralda Urcelay

Basically as a daycare where there are books, blocks, sand and a stack with water. Something to entertain a child with less than 7 years. My 8 year-old daughter bored very soon. The only corner in which my daughter found something appropriate for her age was the "Art Room" where some sheets of paper are provided but unfortunately there were no crayons, or pencils or markers !. The problem .... That day was "sticker fun" day and they just provide stickers

Little Rockian

Great safe place for small children to play. A few reviewers complain of parents not watching over their kids. I have not encountered this here. In fact, I find that parents are always courteous about what their kids are doing. I guess you're bound to find a few parents who don't know how to behave their children. In general though, this is a nice and safe place for kids to enjoy themselves. There are a variety of activities for kids to enjoy.

Eva Lamont

We LOVE the Wonder Place. My four year old loves the make believe cafe area and my one year old loves the sand and water table! So much to do!!

COREY JACKSON

Great place for kids!!

Rebecca Micel

Love this place it’s fun and clean! Tons to do with littles. However I feel like the price jumped pretty dramatically from what I remember two years ago?

Katie B. A. D

My nephews had a blast and we enjoyed interacting with them throughout the many activities

Shonta Marshe'

Fun, clean, and my children love it.

Nicky Austin

My sons favorite place for years

Logan Garrett

Great for youngsters, my toddler always has a good time. I just wish there was an enforced age cutoff, or someone to actively curtail some of the bigger kids who are too rough and rambunctious.

Chrissy DeClue

Spent four hours here, we brought our own food as they do not allow fast food. My kids loved all of the choices and I loved the security of them in a safe learning environment.

Stormy Jayy

Entirely too expensive not enough for children to do I have 4 kids 5 and under and I definitely should not have had to pay for myself I'm not coming to play we won't be back but I must say staff was friendly

Justin Lieber

We love the Wonder Place!!!! My 2 & 4 year old could spend all day here! We would come more often if adults didn't have to pay, but it's still worth the $$ every now and then!

Ben Gunn

Kids love this place. They have a lot of things to keep the imagination going.

Derek Selby

This place is great for small kids. Our 14 month old son loves it!

Kaye Lynn Tankersley

We went on a Saturday and it was very busy, I didn’t feel like the place was very clean and the toys seemed overly used and old. Although there were some high spots such as an indoor slide and physical play areas. I felt the price was a bit high for what you get.

Jessica Warden

So much fun and a pretty good price! Things to do for crawlers too

Irene Ramirez

I always enjoy bringing my kids here. My kids seem to really enjoy the various areas that they have. Also since I have a younger kid as well, it's nice that they have a specific area for him. The staff is always friendly and helpful. I would recommend this place to any parents to take their kids.

Kennedy Ezell

Great staff, owner walks around and interacts with customers. Great place for children to interact with each other. So many things to keep the kids busy. I recommend for children ages 1-4

Tammy Seger

We had our son's first birthday party here. It was great! Staff was very accommodating and friendly! We will be back to play.

Gary Griggers

Great place for kids to play

Leigh Hardage

Had a 4yo bday party here all the kiddos had a blast THANK YOU Wonderplace!

Jill

I am just not a fan of this place! I have been numerous times and each time I leave disappointed. Our most recent visit was the worst. My 3 yo, 8 m old, and myself walked in behind a group with one adult and 6 kids. It took several minutes for them to pay, which was fine. Once they paid, the lady at the front desk completely ignored us and took them on a tour of the place. She then proceeded to take group pictures for them. If I hadn't promised my daughter we would come, I would have turned around and left. We stood at the front for close to 7 minutes waiting on her to come back. I expected her to apologize, but she did not. Didn't even cross her rude mind. No other employees in sight. We payed and then went to play. The kitchen area was a wreck of beaten up toys. A mom was busy texting while her baby was drooling and mouthing everything. The only bucket for toys that have been put in kids mouths is at the front. They need one on a shelf for each station. You can't leave your child or stop their play to take toys to the front. The craft area is always a mess. The sand table never has enough sand. I don't know how often they clean, wash dress up clothes, or rotate toys, but I can't imagine it is very often. The few times we have been it is always the same stuff. Making parents pay to watch your child play is a total rip off. I will never go back.

Oran Taylor

Great place for the kids to play and just be kids.

John Hale

Our kids absolutely adore this place and literally scream in excitement every time "The Wonder Place" is even mentioned. A clean, wonderful indoor place for children to play, and our 2 and 4 year olds favorite place to be :)

Samantha Storts

Little pricy. They charge for adults too. But great for kids age 0-6years

Kurt Shubert

Not as big or impressive as the Museum of Discovery and for a somewhat younger audience overall. Still, a good place to pass a Saturday for my (Asperger's/mildly Autistic) 5 year old. Probably not great for kids over eight to ten years old. Not bad for children those ages down to six to eight months.

Adam Towery

Great place to take little ones!

Just Me April

Went on a field trip with my daughter and her kindergarten class. She had fun, so I had fun watching her play. We have been a few times and it's always fun for my 3 kids.

Laura Lasiter

Could be a delightful experience for young tots, but they let rowdy older children run amok among the younger tots, yelling and screaming and almost knocking the little ones down at times. Need to prevent mixing such small children (1 to 4) with the older ones (5 to 10) The parents who bring their older children need to supervise them more closely.

audrea johnson

Waste of money son didnt even want to play with anything also the price on the website isnt right its 8.75 per parent and 8.75 for my 1 year old

Erin McCalla

Fun first time experience for us. The facility seemed clean, the staff was friendly, and the bathrooms were nice. They had a nursing station too. There is a fee for each child, $8.75 I think, and they charge for the first adult. The second adult is free. There are many stations, art, sand, soft blocks, wood blocks, market, kitchen, stuffed animals/veterinarian, tiny tot area, wind tunnel, dress up stage, water table, puppet show, and tree house. The staff did walk around periodically and clean up. I was amazed how fast she put the kitchen back together, it was wrecked. There is also an area with tables and chairs and snack machines. We didn't use that area, so I have no review of it. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the water area, the tiny tot table seemed scuzzy. I don't know how often it gets cleaned out, but it needed it. They do provide smocks for the water table, and that is nice. The art area, they put out a few things for a single craft, you don't have access to every media imaginable, but my 3yo was satisfied. My only real complaint is the other parents. I had a 1.5 and a 3.5yo there and there were older kids running them over, knocking them down, ripping toys out of their hands...and so many parents didn't bat an eye, or made a half-hearted attempt to tell their kid to be nice. I lost my temper when a much older kid was in the tiny tot area and smashed a door into my 1.5yo and all but crushed her. Completely unnecessary. Parents need to teach their children manners and respect. But anyway, the facility was nice, my kids loved it, and the staff was friendly and did clean up. We will go back.

Shannon Womack

A expensive for a birthday party. Dont recommend. And the girl working at the desk had a friend hanging out up there with her. Not very professional.

Leigh Davis

My two little guys love coming to The Wonder Place.

Marnicia Moody

Fun place for the kids but there needs to be a better policy for children that continue to fight other children and parents who do not address the problem!!!

Debby Hopkins

Great, great fun! Kids 6 mo to 110+ years! Happy 11th birthday!

William Compton

Very good place for kids

Sheila Dickson

Awesome place for kids

Douglas Bennett II

My daughter loved it. Many activities for young children. Great for toddlers and I had a fun time as well. Gets kids interested in many different things such as role playing and dress up. They have a big water table and a pretend marketplace where kids can be the shopper or run the register.

Christin Rippy

We LOVE The Wonder Place!! They have the neatest areas and my girls are entertained for hours! I wish there were more locations :)

Kelly Rayburn

So much time can be spent here.

Erica Durham

Kind of lame

Zina Al-Shukri

I was thinking about taking my twin toddlers and newborn to this place but from the look of the website I would have to nurse my baby in the bathroom. First of all, I would not be able to watch my other two children if I was stuck nursing in the bathroom. Second, would you want to eat in a bathroom?-- yucky. For a facility with families running around freely, one would think that nursing a baby in the midst of all this would be, say, a natural and acceptable part of family happenings. Please don't categorize a perfectly natural and necessary occurrence, such as feeding your baby from the breast with something else like defecation. This is a truly unsanitary request. Please don't shame a nursing mamma's body.

Marci Henryson

The Wonder Place is the best when it gets super hot, rainy, or if you need to get out of the house. There is only one entrance and exit if their party rooms are closed, leaving the place secure and allowing your little ones to roam free. The many different 'stations' allow for a variety of development and critical thinking activities. The stations that I can recall off the top of my head are as follows: Huge water table. Grab a protective apron, a fishing pole and go to town Tree House: slide, Rock climbing ramp, a music space, a loft for toys A grocery store: pretend food and play with baskets, a check out station and a register The Kitchen: prepping stations, kitchens, and tables to serve. Host your own tea party Theater: puppets, dress up, & props Veterinary Clinic: stuffed animals, doctor equipment Sand Table: hands-on play! Craft/Coloring tables Bright light building station Blocks/Velcro cubes station Air Area: throw scarves through tubes and see where they come out. Foam balls can float above p vc pipes A baby-2yr area: separate play area with tunnels, books, slides, mats etc The space is open allowing you to rest your feet and watch them or play with them. Restrooms and water fountain are clean and in close proximity.

Parenting 101

I barely got in the door and my kids were already attached! I love the fact that there are different play areas. Which gave my toddlers the chance to explore and use their imaginations. My son stayed in the cooking and grocery area and he was very seriously about making me food. My daughter explored the whole building. The gift shop is awesome! I went on a shopping spree of course so that lets you know The wonder place is worth going to. Not only will you be happy but so will your children.

Kristina Rhode

A lot of fun things kids can play with. Lila loved the slide and playing in the water.

shauna storey

It was ok, expected more...but my toddler loved it so I guess that is all that matters
