Little Play Place

I am so glad I found this and made a day trip to Tampa centered around visiting the Little Play Place! It exceeded my expectations and both my kids ages 1 and 5 equally loved it. It was several little open “rooms” each with a different pretend play theme, and kept the kids playing happily independently (rare for us)! The place was spotless as far as cleanliness which is uncommon for indoor play areas. We will definitely be back!

Was a great place to bring my niece who was only a year and a half at the time. Was great to see all the kids socializing and having a blast. You can even get different types of memberships depending on how you want to use the business. Some memberships even have art classes (called the art bar) in which they can decorate different things.

My son had the absolute best time exploring all the different play areas. I love that he can have freedom to roam and pick the educational toys that he wants to play with, while also knowing that he is in a safe space. I love to see his little mind recognize things he knows while also getting to explore and learn about new objects. The staff were all so friendly and a fun escape from the Florida heat never hurts either!! We will definitely be back!!

I went here for my nieces birthday party. The place was clean, super cute, and the owner and staff were so friendly, kind, and helpful. This place is set up in little areas where the kids can play and pretend (ex: there is a camping area, a beauty salon, construction area ext..). There is also an area for toddlers. Would definitely take my nieces and nephew back.

Not exactly what we were expecting but still cute. Upon our first time visiting I made a reservation ahead of time. Paid the $22 for “90 minutes” of open play (but actually you pay for 80 minutes and then get told to get out 10 minutes before hand… in my opinion it should be a gentle reminders 10 minutes before time to start picking up. Then 5 minutes before let people know they need to start making their way towards the front for “a sticker”). My reservation time was 9am-10:30am and was out by 10:23am. It seems a little like false advertising to say you get 90 minutes and then give everyone the boot 10 minutes before the displayed time. I get you have to clean and pickup before the next scheduled time but you either need to change the site and expectations for parents or you need to adjust scheduling to allow ample time for staff to reorganize and clean before the next reservation time. I also understand we need to watch after our children but if parents are expected to go from room to room there should be at least one seat made for an adult in each room. I’m 9 months pregnant and sitting on the floor and getting up and down and standing the full time is hard right now. The rules explained to us were as follows: - no running - no climbing - pickup after your child (no specific location for the toys to go back but just up off the floor to keep the path clear and avoid injury) - watch over your child *these make perfect sense to me and agree with them fully* The floors in the rooms could use some padding or something. My child was in the camping area and tripped walking out of the camper because there’s a pole that runs along the bottom and he fell face first and if not for divine intervention from God, I swear— my child would’ve bashed their face, teeth first, into the hard concrete flooring but fortunately the top of my husbands shoe was there and broke his fall. It’s a very cute establishment and we had fun but for the price I’d just go to the library because it’s free and they have a play room with a play kitchen, play market, trains, puppets, and puzzles (and seating for parents to watch as their kids play). This seems better suited for kids in the 4-7 age range and has aspects of what used to be called kid city/safety village (no longer a thing sadly) with more immersive pretend play. Love the concept and wish this business the best of success (and they definitely seem to be thriving because of all the kiddos there).
