. "If you have kids with a lot of energy head over to Xtreme Play. They have large bounce house/slide/obstacle course that are so much fun. It's located inside Carolina Mall in Concord. I believe there is another location in Monroe as well. Xtreme play is clean, air conditioned and a bit noisy from all the blowers and kids laughter. Depending on the time you go, it could be completely empty (M-F during school) or really crowded (Sat/Sun after school). There is also staff that walks the floor regularly to make sure everything is okay. There are benches everywhere for parents to sit and monitor their child while climbing through and also a lounge with couches and a tv. \n\nThey have a snack bar and they also sell ice cream bars. There are plenty of pay to ride similar to those outside a grocery store (about 50 cents a ride) but the main attraction is the bounce slides. There are several with an obstacle course that will leave an adult laughing. I'll admit that I've raced through it with my sister (we are both in our 20's) and had a blast. I usually invite a friend along for my daughter when we go because its more fun to play with a friend then on your own. \n\nQuick Tip - bring your own socks; you have to have them and they charge $2 a pair for them there.\nAlso look for the Buy One Get One free Coupon in the Charlotte Entertainment book."^^ .
