The Play Area

The play area is absolutely adorable and has something for babies to upwards of 11 year olds(though there are some Pacman games the adults may enjoy!). The play area is completely enclosed so it’s the perfect spot for your toddler to play and explore! There’s a play kitchen with a table and plenty of play food, a baby doll area complete with a functioning tiny washer for tiny baby clothes, an air hockey table, cozy reading area, books, vintage arcade games, and more!

The Sensory Area

The sensory area is where my two year old spent most of the time! There are carts filled with kinetic sand toys to play with, tons of popping toys, and more. It’s a great area for younger kids to sort, measure, pour, etc. and the best part is you don’t have to worry about the mess!

The Art Classes

The Paintbox is different from other play centers in that every visit can include ART! Teacher Nicki has been teaching art for 20+ years and is amazing with kids! During each open play time she leads a time of art, during our visit we made Shrinky Dink necklaces! She also taught my six year old some basics of clay sculpting. She takes a Montessori approach and teaches children how to use the tools safely and hands them over for them to use their creativity!

Drop Off Classes

They offer many options when it comes to drop off classes for ages 20 months to 10 years! You can find more info about classes here.
