Have small kids ( ~8 and under) and are looking for something to do on a rainy? Or something that is a little bit of a change of pace? Check out the Childrens playhouse. This is great for local families with you kids or if you are visiting the area and it is rainy. The Playhouse has a good interactive creative art center were you kids can paint, playdough, do color bubbles or whatever the art of the day is. It also has two floors with rooms for all sorts of pretend play from dinosaurs to pretend vet to dress up. It also has a book corner and area where kids can play trains and build tracks. There are spaces outside for the little ones to play as well.So if you are local with young kids to get them out of the house for a bit or if you are visiting and it is rainy come check this place out. Hint: If you are local look into the annual membership to save money.

Absolutely worth the drive from anywhere in nc, very cheap and tons of fun things to do for kids of all ages. The also have membership programs for low income families so everyone can enjoy no matter your income. Well cleaned, nice staff and tons of options. Its a nice little gem in the mountains you might not notice if not looking.

My son and I loved it. The staff is very nice. The place has multiple engaging centers (play-areas) and is very clean. I liked that there were children of various ages. We havent attended any of the guided activities but we are looking forward to doing so.

Its been like 10 years since Ive been, but I have many fond memories of it. This is where I met several of my friends, and I am still friends with them more than a decade later. Very good for small children, I highly recommend it if you just want to let your kids run wild for a few hours.

We had a blast at the playhouse today... Miss Mae got to make a fossil ornament and we learned about some fossils.... The staff was very helpful and the other parents were wonderful. And of course the ball pit is always a good time to be had by all. Thankyou

Absolutely great place to bring your young kids to play. Every fun game that exists for the age group 8 years and under: they have it! Even games I did not think existed. We brought our 13 months old boy and started the day with a music class. Just great!

Very accommodating and friendly staff! Raining at Grandfather Mountain, so this was a great place to spend time with my 4 year old. Our two hours there flew by! Price of admission was very cheap for all they offer.

We went for the first time (free) during the 17th Birthday Celebration week and my kids, 4 and 8, loved it! We got there when it opened at 10 and they did not want to leave for lunch when we got hungry at 1pm. They have a special on memberships this week and I think it is totally worth it if you live in the area. Its great for rainy days and snowy days especially because they have an awesome romp and stomp room where kids can get out their extra energy!!

We absolutely LOVE CP! As a nanny I definitely find this as a great place for the kids to come and interact with others kids, and they have wonderful activities and programs. Tess and Kayla are our faves :-) they make the experience that much better! They are so thoughtful of the kids, and just kind hearted. We havent gotten to know much more of the staff but I am sure they are up to par with them! We recommend this 100% to anyone thinking about it, the membership is WORTH IT, and they accept donations for supplies etc. which we try to leave a few dollars every week. We appreciate that there is something like this in town to do, especially on rainy days. We have made so many new friends, great socializing and networking for parents too!!

Really good idea. The kids really enjoyed themselves. A bit crowded during the AM. It was a rainy day however. The staff was very courteous and helpful.

We regularly make the drive from Sparta. Great place! My lo, now almost 4, has enjoyed it since his first trip at 2 yrs old. Great rainy/snowy weather daytrip (but fun in good weather too!). Reasonable fee, great employees, wonderful toys; I only wish they opened on Sundays!

My nephew,8 and my son, 2 had a GREAT time. They played for HOURS! 3 hours and still didnt want to leave. It was 20 bucks for the two of them. Great price. Staff is sweet and made you feel comfortable. Areas for adults to sit while kids play which is nice. I wish we had this back where we are from! This is such a great place to take little ones. I planned on bringing the kiddos here before our arrival in boone and our visit was nothing short of amazing. We all had such a blast. Something to do for 18 mo up to 8 years old. Its very safe and designed so children have little to no chance of getting hurt. Not one child wasnt smiling and laughing the whole time I was there on a busy summer afternoon! Only thing that I wasnt fond of was the water area was closed for 10 minutes for cleaning then when It reopened the water spouts werent working and there was no one in sight to help figure it out. Other than that ever thing was great and I recommend you give it a try!

Its not exactly what I was thinking but it is a nice place to take children too. Its in an old house that has been turned into like an kids playground with educational stuff also. I believe it was $6 a person to get in. There is a sink for all to wash hands at before playing. Bathrooms are very clean. They have an outdoor playground area also to play on. We spent an hour there and it felt like we were there for 15 minutes. If you are in Boone and have children under 8 I believe they will enjoy it.

We go once a week, its relaxing and nice to have the change of pace since I am a stay at home mom. It has also allowed my child to come out of her shell a little and play with other children.

If you live in the Boone area and have preschool aged children, this is a must visit for rainy days and days that are too cold to be outside. Membership is only $100 for unlimited visits during an entire year. Also a fantastic place to host birthday parties.

This place is great for kids 2-8 with a variety of activities indoors. Warmer weather doubles the fun with a playground and outdoor activities. STEAM!

My kids had a good time, but there was a funky smell downstairs. Other kids there got sick with the stomach bug that night. Staff were kind and professional, and the toys were organized and well-kept.

A great way to spend a few hours with your little tot. Lots of fun activities to expand their little minds. They have everything from painting and playdough, to piano and a ball pit. You can read books, join in the play, or juat sit back and see your childs imagination run wild. I would say its best for kids about 5 and under.
