A great space for kids to play and interact with different activities.nThere were a few kids that were definitely over 7 years of age which is fine but they needed more supervision and guidance about being around little ones, especially with the painting activity.nWe wish we’d found the upstairs area sooner because it was a bit quieter and had activities our 2 little ones enjoy.nThe “dance party” at the end was a bit overwhelming with the volume and the number of kids.nOverall a great space that I’d recommend attending just not during school holidays.
nnA must visit in Geelong if you’ve got young kidsnnWe visited the Geelong Museum of Play and Art MOPA while in town for a Cats game and couldn’t have been more impressed. We went in the morning before the game and it was such a perfect way to spend time with kids before a big day.nnIt’s ideal for children aged around 18 months to 7 or 8 years. We were a little unsure at first after seeing photos, wondering if it might be too focused on preschoolers, but our little guy a bit older had an absolute ball and easily played for the full two hours. He would have stayed longer if we let him.nnThere are so many hands on activities that time really does fly. The optional special events and mini sessions throughout the visit were a lovely touch. They were engaging but not expected, which is great if your kids are already busy playing.nnThe venue is well set up for families. There are good coffee and food options that are tasty and reasonably priced, and plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Parking is manageable, though if you’re attending a session close to a Cats game, be prepared for it to be a bit busier than usual. Earlier sessions are best if you’re combining it with game day.nnEven in winter, it was fantastic. The water play was still popular despite the cold, and in nicer weather the outdoor areas would be even better.nnMOPA has a solid 4.8 star rating and after visiting, it’s very clear why. If you’ve got little ones in this age range, book a session. You won’t regret it.
This place is a kids heaven and parents. Well thought out, super fun for all ages and none of us wanted to leave. Every state should have one! A serious credit to the creators. The car painting and duplo in water were seriously highlights close contender the vaccum silk blowers inside
What an amazing morning! The kids had an absolute ball!nnAside from the terrific activity and play areas, the staff come around at different points and let you know when special activities are starting. Today we did craft time, a storybook movie, and a dress up dance party.nnCompletely worth every cent, and the drive! The staff were so friendly and made the kids feel special.nnThe cafe was well priced and had great drinks and snacks.nnHighly recommend for anyone with little ones!
Our 3 kids 7, 4 and almost 2 yo enjoyed their time here. A lot smaller than expected, main floor plus mezzanine level, just sufficient for the kids to be engaged in sensory play for the pre-booked 2 hour session. Low key activities, interesting though not overly exciting, needs an update, but friendly staff and a good alternative to a busy play centre. Nice that it wasn’t overcrowded especially during school holidays, so kids could take their time exploring each play area with little to no wait time. Quaint place. Kids had a good time
