The kids and our staff definitely had a fun time at one of our favourite out trip spots - Funky Monkey. It’s an indoor playground that features a ton of mazes, obstacles and 50ft slide. One of the most popular areas for the kids was the ball arena with hundreds of foam balls everywhere. They had ball blasters that shoot foam balls across the room, and somehow like to find their way to a leader. 

Another great attraction there is the ball dump. We had kids spend lots of time searching to collect balls to build up the dump basket. Seeing their faces when it all came showering over them was so enjoyable. One of the best parts for us as staff is the fact that the indoor playground is big enough for us to get in the action with the kids - without breaking our backs. So parents, you can join in too!

I wanted to find out what some kids thought about our out trip so I asked them this question...

What was your favourite Part about Funky Monkey?:

Nick: The Games room, because I found 10 cents.

Savannah: Tag with Tegan and because I scared her.

George: The ropes that I swung on and trying to land on the circle cushions.

James: The slides, because they were really fast.

Noah: The Jurassic games, they were really fun!

Samantha: The big slides.

Kris: Putting balls in the gun and shooting them.

Reilly: Probably the huge slides that are yellow and 2 greens.

Lily: Every part!

The battleground

Overall all the answers were very positive and I could tell all the kids had a great time. We always look forward to these out trips where we can take time off from our regular routines and do different great activities! If you want a place to have fun check it out with your family!
