Boomers, the
winner of our 2008
Parents' Picks quest to find the
Best Indoor Playspace/Partyspace for Big Kids in Philadelphia, is one of the area's original indoor play venues. The sprawling amusement palace offers a three-story, 3,000-square-foot indoor playground (known as the Fun Zone); more than 70 arcade games; two landscaped mini-golf courses; a driving range with professional golf instruction for golfers of all ages; and more.
The
Fun Zone, designed for children ages twelve and under with parent supervision, features a moon bounce, corkscrew slide, and ride-in helicopter. Surrounding the various tunnels, ladders, and padded areas are redemption games for all skill levels, and a redemption counter with prizes. There is a small
toddler area, for children ages three and under, for play separate from the fast-moving older children. One of the Fun Zone's best features is the fact that all equipment is oversized - so parents can join in the fun or retrieve wayward children easily. There are tables and chairs in full view of the room, so parents can sit and rest while maintaining a close eye on the kids! The Fun Zone also features a snack bar.
Miniature golf features two 18-hole courses surrounded by four waterfalls, streams, and ponds. The
driving range, home to the
Eric MacCluen Golf Academy, features 36 teeing stations (16 of which are covered and heated), elevated target greens, and a 900-square-foot practice sand bunker.
