Kids Play & Dance World, Granada Hills

From the top floor of a two-level treehouse, youngsters can gaze across Kids Play and Dance World’s kingdom. To the right, a jello-like inflatable obstacle course jiggles with each leap and bounce. In the middle of the indoor playground, kids exercise dexterity at minuscule plastic roller coasters, a plastic climbing boulder, and foosball and air-hockey tables. When the mini people, aged 10 and younger, are not chucking paddles during games of ping-pong, the staff works to keeps all the equipment clean and safe for play. Though the majority of play occurs during open-play hours, the space also can be reserved for kids' dance classes and parties. Parents can easily monitor children from their own area, which is next to the play space and replete with seating, concessions, WiFi, and other parents.
