| - This is the biggest indoor playground I've ever seen in the GTA, and having had to find field trips for summer camp for the last five or so years, I've seen a lot of them. They say they are the largest, but I haven't seen them all, so I don't know whether this is just a grand claim they're making, or whether this is the truth.
What I don't like is their two larger slides. They have a really big yellow slide that is quite steep. There are age limits to all their slides, but no one really looks at those, and the slides aren't usually supervised. Considering that this slide is quite steep, parents might want to watch out for their children if they go down this slide. Their spiral slide is beautiful to look at, having two full spirals, but it's quite a narrow slide. We had a number of incidents with this slide. For little kids, we had a kid who went in properly (feet first), and somehow turned around in the slide midway and ended up coming out bum first. We had another kid who also went in properly, and managed to tumble (somersault) down through the slide. Thankfully, neither of them was hurt. Most of our kids were wearing grip socks (required for the trampolines) while in the jungle gym, and the grip socks are a nightmare on the slides. They mess up traction and kids can end up getting hurt.
Apart from the slides, there is a lot to like about Playcious. When we booked, we asked if there might be another group of children at the same time as ours. We were told that they do their best to avoid multiple large bookings at once just so all the children have room to play, and to eliminate confusion. Their jungle gym has four different levels to it, if I count correctly. It's a lot to run through and hide in. We brought about 70 kids and there was plenty of space for them all. They have a trampoline park that fits about 12 kids in it, and there's always a staff member there to supervise it. They have a megaphone for when large groups want to call to their kids, and they were kind enough to let us use it throughout our trip. We had two party rooms to have lunch in. They have other things to play on other than the trampoline park and the jungle gym. They have swings for smaller children. They have a small arcade area, if one chooses to use it. They also have a small cafe if people don't want to bring food.
All in all, a good trip. We made lots of good memories.
Ah. I forgot to mention that the pricing per kid here is really good. The trampolining is included in the base price, and the base price is about $7/kid, if I recall correctly.
