Question about Monkey Joes
Would Natalie (who is 2 today!) like it? She likes the mall play area and likes playgrounds at the park. Is it worth it for me to take her sometime this summer or wait until she is older? She is cautious when it comes to lots of other kids being around.
Re: Question about Monkey Joes
Happy Birthday!!!
We took K to Pump it Up in Omaha for his cousin's BDay party, and he really seemed to like it (we were with him the whole time though, in the inflatables). Not sure if Monkey Joe's is like this, but K loved Pump it Up, and he is 15 months old.
Have fun with whatever you do today!!!
Betsy liked it at 2. She mostly just went in the bounce house and didn't do many of the slides. She was timid at first, but then had a great time.
The Monkey Joe's I was in was in NC and they had staff in all the inflatables so I didn't go in-I really couldn't because Carly was 8 months old. But they did a good job of policing the big kids and keeping an eye on everyone.
Carly at 19 months loves the inflatable place and goes down everything big sister goes down-even the slides. She is a lot more adventurous than Betsy.
They have a littler kid area. Toddler town I think its called. but then if she doesnt like that there is a small area near the computers that has blocks and other toys for her to play with. T only has to pay $5 when he goes, and he will be 3 in July. So you wont be out a whole lot of $ if she doesnt like it. maybe they will let you try it frist. the staff there has always been really nice and helpful when we go there.
happy bday to natalie!
Yes, I think she would... I took Oliver there last weekend and he is only 15 months and he loved running around, all the kids, and being in the inflatables for small amounts of time... (the idea of bouncing on inflatables was a little overwhelming for him) we are definitely going back there. Its a great way to burn energy!
