Once I Found It

I loved it! I drove by 2 times before realizing where it was. It blends in well and the sign was partially blocked by a 'for lease' sign. What I loved: 1- Their locking front gate, the kids can't run for the door like some other places nearby. 2- How clean everything is! Although it was busy and a little messy, the toys and space itself are very clean. I also saw one of the girl working there cleaning the toys and floor. 3- Its not so big that you can't see your children. From anywhere I sat, I could see my kids. 4- The toys! They had lots of toys from a train table to a baby crib and small bounce houses. I have made the mistake of going to blow up play areas and my kids usually get hurt. Either the blow ups are too big and there are older kids that inside that hurt the younger ones. 5- It is for little kids. What I didn't like: 1- They are not nut-free. Although, no place u have been to is, I have been to a few places who have signs that they are nut-free, but then outside food is brought in. 2- There is no sibling discount. I was offered a 6 visit card which brings the price down, but I only had 3 kids with me. I can use them another time. All and all, this is really an asset for parents of young children on the North Shore. I will definetly be coming back often during the winter and my kids kept busy for the 3 hours we were there and did not want to leave. That's an A+ in my book!

Little Bears Is Great But Needs To Turn The Heat Up In Winter

Little Bears is perfect for my one year old. He loves going there and it's great for the parents as well. The only complaint is that in the winter, the heat is not turned on high enough which causes both parents and children to be cold. I asked if the employee could turn the heat up and she said the temperature gauge was locked.

Above And Beyond

I can't say enough good things about Little Bears. We first went for a birthday party, my son had so much fun he begged to me to have his party here too. The staff went over and above and made for such a memorable birthday! We got the extras pack which came with everything, I didn't need to bring or do a thing and all the toys in the goody bags were a huge hit! Will definitely be booking my daughters upcoming birthday party here too!

LOVE This PLACE

We go here at least once a week! my 18month old LOVES it! I also appreciate the cleanliness and that the people who work there actually interact with the kids! This is by farm the cleanest most friendly place for tots that the North Shore has to offer. You must check it out for yourself! (they also have a tanning bed!)
