"Three ways to spend a break day"

1. Winter Break camp (ages 4–12) Registered full-day camp with lunch included, counsellor-led programming, and strict pick-up rules (photo ID every day). Camp runs weekdays during break weeks. If a statutory holiday falls on a weekday, camp does not run that day.

2. Parent-supervised drop-in play Walk in or book online. Unlimited play until close. Socks and waivers for everyone past admission. Parties in the building do not shut out drop-in families — capacity is well over 300.

3. Birthday parties Parties still run during break, though weekday parties before 5:00pm are uncommon because camp uses party rooms during the day. Evening and weekend party slots are the usual break-season bookings.

"Visiting relatives and out-of-town cousins"

Grandparents, aunts, and uncles need the same socks and waivers as everyone else — any age, playing or not. Sign waivers at home if you can: Waiver

Mixed-age groups work well here — littles near toddler zones, older cousins on the donut slide and ballistics arena, adults with sightlines from the eating area.

"When is it busiest?"

January is generally our busiest stretch of the year overall. Christmas break itself brings a mix of camp families, drop-in guests, and holiday visitors — weekends and rainy days fill up faster.

"What kids actually do here"

One admission unlocks the full indoor playground — donut slide (tube slide), ballistics arena, jumping pillow, ninja obstacle course, toddler areas, and concession under one roof. That is why families search things to do in London indoors when the weather turns.
