Family Days Out Childrens Play Areas Manchester

The Northwest's Top 5 Childrens Play Areas

2010-07-03T21:44:00.000-07:00

In second place we have Head over Heels, based in Chorlton, Manchester. It is simply outstanding but just got pipped to the winning post by originality, any other given day and this would take some beating. We can't get enough of the themed indoor play areas and this is something special, complete with a family restaurant serving top notch fresh food, that really is quite supreme.

It's a fairytale wonderland full of surprizes, you will have to literally drag the kids out of there. The facilities are first class, clean and inventive. The admission is very reasonable for the standard of the surroundings, all in all you can't go wrong with a trip here. Happy hunting folks, a well deserved second place.

A well deserved fourth place goes to Geronimo's childrens adventure play area based in Warrington, Cheshire. It's a cool and funky soft play Wild West themed kids attraction. Complete with air conditioning and plenty to keep the children entertained, it is extremely well presented. There are always activities going on from, hair braiding to nail art amd arm painting.

They have characters such as Geronimo the indian chief, Kiki the indian girl, Dozy the donkey, Sheriff Catchem and more, which helps to bring the little ones imagination to life and ensures a good time is had by all. Oooh can't forget the comfy couches, perfect for lounging around with a coffee when the kids are off playing. This is a highly recommended family fun day out.

As you can see it's a kids dream come true, all the play equipment to climb and slide down. They will definitely not get bored here, there is simply too much to do. It is a well presented facility which has been established 11 years, so these guys know what fly's when it comes to kids entertainment. Great for holding parties especially the Girl Galaxy makeover package, just the ticket for all little girls. Well worth a visit and deserved fifth placing. Rock on chaps, good work.

Crackpots! paint-your-own-pottery studio and indoor play centre is a unique place where adults and children of all ages can paint pottery, whilst toddlers and children under nine can use the use the softplay area, climbing frame and other play equipment. Child carers can relax on one of our leather sofas, keeping a watchful eye over their kids at all times.

As soon as I saw this ingenious childrens play centre, I was hooked. It appeals on so many different levels, and it's all about the kids.

The people who run Crack Pots obviously love what they are doing, the nature of it, helping kids on a one to one basis, and having tremendous fun in the mean time. You can be sure your children are in very capable loving hands everytime. This goes down as the top pick. Well done folks, good work.

Clown Around & Bear Hut

2009-07-28T11:28:00.001-07:00

We all want our children to have fun and sometimes we also like it when we can sit back and watch them in the knowledge that they are in a safe environment and not turning the house upside down.

Clown Around Play Centre, Clown Around Bear Hut and Clown Around’s Play Bus allow you to do just that.

Established in October 2003 by Debbie Scott, Clown Around has become one of the most successful play centres in the region, with 1000s of children having come through it doors.

The customer service is second to none with regular undertaking of staff training. We also annually have a ROSPA inspection to keep us on our toes!

Children can have hours of fun while parents or minders can relax while enjoying some of the delicious coffees and food from the café. There is even a quiet area upstairs for those wanting to watch the TV, read the papers or browse the Internet.

Over the years Debbie has grown her business with the help of her staff to allow more children to enjoy her home grown Clown Around entertainment services.

She quickly came to realise that the best way to do so would be to have more than one party venue for the children, Clown Around Play Bus was launched which proved a great success and later the Clown Around Bear Hut. Debbie could not resist the bears on a visit to the States.

As well as catering for birthday parties, all 3 offer a unique experience for children and adults too!

Please keep in mind when commenting this is a website designed to revolve around children so any grievances should be handled with care and maturity. The best thing to do in this instance is leave the comments until the day after, when you can see things in the cold light of day. Any adult languange will be deleted indefinitley.

Head Over Heels Play Centre - Chorlton Manchester

2009-06-30T14:05:00.005-07:00

Welcome to Head Over Heels Indoor Play Centre & Family Restaurant. Here you'll find everything you need to plan an exciting and care free visit to the area's most popular soft play facility. Whether it's just a quick visit, a coffee and a snack, or a fantastic birthday party, you can be sure of a warm welcome and the highest standards every time. We look forward to seeing you.

A quote taken from The Daily Telegraph 'The good thing about this place is that your children are kept behind a large glass partition. They can quietly throttle each other without disturbing luncheon. There are vast castles, dragons, astro-slides and "soft play" areas where toddlers can climb the beanstalk or walk the yellow-brick road. Weary adults will take comfort knowing their sprogs won't enjoy the food (healthy stuff such as chicken-liver parfait, £3.75), so no sweets, crisps, fizzy drinks or any of that good stuff). A happy compromise.'

Ages 3 yrs and over - The biggest, best and most exciting Fairy Tale Castle Play Structure in the universe is waiting for you at Head Over Heels. Three levels of soft play fun reaching a mind blowing 6.5m height. The fastest way to get down is on the fiery 3-lane astro slide – if you can make it past the Dragon. Take the springy cow challenge – will you be riding high in the sky or over the moon? Have a ball shower – much more fun than water or practice your Head Over Heels in the meadows. Climb the Giant's Bean Stalk, rescue Rapunzel and follow the Yellow Brick Road or Alice in Wonderland's Rabbit down his hole. A funtastic way to exercise and meet new friends.

Under 3's - Head Over Heels has an outstanding integrated toddler area with height appropriate climbs and components, offering all the fun and excitement of the larger frame in mini-scale. Features include a ball pool with gravity defying ball juggler, mirror maze, tunnel and horizontal rollers. Take a climb to the second level and walk the plank, cross the net bridge and whiz down the slide. There's a large padded area for little ones still finding their feet and lots of soft play bricks for building. Take the trikes for a spin in the enclosed trike area or take up residence in the little house.The toddler area has just one entrance in and out making it easy to keep an eye on your little ones and there's plenty of space for adults to sit. Books are available to borrow at reception and there are specially designed adult and child reading sofas. The toddler area has a large shelf for storing bags, coats and adults shoes and there is adjoining buggy storage.
