Indoor Playgrounds in Edmonton!

The cold is coming (again!) so we've made a listing of the best indoor playgrounds in Edmonton, Sherwood Park & St. Albert to help the kids burn off some energy during those cold winter months! 

Things to remember before you go:
  • Socks are required at almost every indoor playground - most places sell them if you forget but you'll save some money by throwing an extra pair in your purse!
  • Rule of thumb - if the establishment sells food you can't bring your own in. This is fairly standard, if you have special dietary requirements a quick phone call before you come should clear up any questions or concerns!



In addition to a fantastic nature inspired playground John Janzen also offers drop in programming free with admission. 
Cost: Ages 2+ $6.00  or $12 per family (2 adults and all children)
