The problem is when they get too wild, which does happen at Edinborough Park. Because it is so close to our house, however, Edinborough Park has been our Go-To place for an indoor playground. We like it, but there are some definite minuses (such as unruly kids).
The Edinborough Park Playpark is almost one acre of indoor fun, highlighted by Adventure Peak, one of the largest indoor play structures in the country, The "Peak" is a 44-by-44-by-37 foot high climbing, low crawling, slip sliding Northwoods adventure. Climb into the 30-foot tall oak tree, slide down one of the four giant tube slides or wash down the triple wave slide. Climb across a canyon, scale the climbing wall and venture to the 30-foot lookout to spy around the Park. From the lookout, slide down the very popular and very fast new super slide.
MINUS: While the playpark is tons for fun for the kiddos, it's tough for parents to follow along in they myriad of tunnels. And when a kiddo is hurt or sad, it can be rough to navigate a way down.
Adventure Peak also features a small Tot Area that includes climbing, crawling, and sliding. The entire padded, netted and enclosed structure has over 45 events to keep kids challenged and entertained for hours.
MINUS: The area is small so kiddos can get bored after awhile (and the rest of the park looks like so much fun!) (If you're looking for more for the tots to do, head over to Eagle's Nest in New Brighton.)
One of the things we like best about Edinborough Park is the Great Hall, a 60-by-90 foot multipurpose space for kids to play with balls and other park-provided gym activities. There's a huge bounce house there. And great peddle-bikes, as well as a basketball net and tons of balls. With a 21-month-old and a 5-year-old, the Great Hall was the easiest place for me to keep track of both kiddos at the same time.
I also really appreciate the skylights and 6,000 plants inside.
IF YOU GO
- Don't forget your socks! Adventure Peak is a shoeless environment and socks are required.
- Admission is $7 for each kid, which is on the high side of indoor play areas.
- There is a cafe with some basic snacks upstairs. But if you want healthy food, you'll want to pack it yourself.
- If you're lucky, there will be a concert in the nearby amphitheater you can enjoy while dining.
