MoPA: Museum of Play and Art reviews
31Lovely family morning - daughter's (1.5yrs) favourite was the balls in the vacuum tubes, husband's (34) was the wall mounted ball runs, & both loved the duplo car runs. I loved the slide & climbing with her inside the city. Something for everyone, including a café!
Awesome place, clean space and very kind staff, you can’t bring your own food but they offer delicious and healthy snacks + great coffee
Such an excellent experience, we will be back, so many great play opportunities and lots of stimulation for little ones.
We had a fully hosted party for our daughter's 4th birthday on a Sunday afternoon.
The exhibits are all super fun. My two kids especially loved the slide, and the paintings. I personally loved building cars for the ramps.
All of the other kids in our party, ages 2 to 9, loved everything, and they all went back after our party was over to play with more stuff for the remainder of the session.
When organising the day beforehand, the staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating of everything from dietary requirements to providing cupcakes and lolly bags for each of the kids.
On the day itself, the staff were amazing. Our host was exceptional with the kids, and handled everything to the point where my wife and I didn't have do almost anything other than enjoy the party.
A fantastic family experience - such a fun, colourful & interactive place for kids. My girls love it and we've been a couple of time. They dont ever want to leave. Thanks again MOPA- great space and fantastic team.
We had our Son's 4th birthday here. A very special experience. The whole team at MOPA were very accommodating and went above and beyond to make our visit special. The stuff that are responsible for hosting the parties are clearly educationally trained, very attentive to all the kids.
Party rooms are generously sized and catering was delicious and nicely presented.
Loved it! Its a good place for kids to play and have fun! The only thing I’d chance is the price for parents, I think its expensive charging that much when you literally just watch your kid playing.
I want to shout out Tara who hosted our son’s 3rd birthday party for being super adaptable and understanding when my child became a bit overwhelmed at the start of his party. Tara was calm, fun, and provided an awesome experience while offering sensory friendly alternatives throughout the party and it made the whole party feel smooth and enjoyable for all of us.
The facility is such a friendly and accessible environment. It is always clean and comfortable, with plenty of space for everyone to explore and places to escape for moments of quiet.
We were so impressed with the food options, especially as we had a number of guests with dietary requirements. No one was excluded, and everyone got to enjoy delicious and fun party food.
Thank you all so much!
Brilliant place for young children, my 5 year old nephew loved it.
Very interactive, allows you to spend time playing with your child but is also completely safe to watch them explore on their own.
Everything was very clean and new
So good on every level! Kids welcomed by the team as the main customers (they are!) and a super range of activities to keep them entertained, from dancing to story time to drawing to running about.
Also a separate space for 2yo and under:)
Unique play experience for the kids. They enjoyed it a lot more than I thought they would. Friendly staff.
What an experience we had! My 14 month old had possibly the best day of his life… so much fun was had. Clean and unique spaces, age limit play areas that the staff monitor so bigger kids don’t bowl over the little ones, great cafe with lots of healthy options and decent coffee. Will be booking a birthday party here for sure.
I had heard about how amazing MoPA is for a long time and it did manage to live up to all the hype! So much fun for both my 3 year old and 1 year old.
The two hour lime slot is fantastic, so much time to explore.
I also loved the healthy snacks in the cafe:)
Wonderful experience at MoPA today with my daughter and her children. The venue was spacious and clean with activities for all ages and abilities. Gero, the engaging staff member from Chile was very welcoming & had a lovely rapport with the children. MoPA is indeed fortunate to have Gero on the team- he even found my phone!
Thank you for a great day!

My 2 year old and I loved our whole experience at Mopa. It's our third time and we can't wait to go back again!
Great open space for kids to run, constant activities to spark creativity and play and perfect mix of quiet activities and active ones. Will be back
If you're looking for an outstanding fun experience for young children, MOPA has it all. I can't recommend it highly enough.
Such a great kid space! When we first entered to check in (pre-booking is mandatory), we were greeted by a very friendly person who was definitely delighted to interact with the kids. My children painted on the VW Bug (what? !), played with the balls in the vacuum tube, enjoyed rolling cars on the hills, played with the big blue building things, enjoyed a very cute story time, and had a blast sliding. Totally wore them both out in the best ways.
It was very clean, but they did not offer hand sanitizing stations. None of the employees wore masks. There were a ton of babies (obviously), so I assume breastfeeding is no big deal, but I’d like to have seen both quiet, comfortable, and private nursing rooms available, as well as a clear and obvious signage that breastfeeding is fine anywhere in the space.
Visited MoPA today. It was a great experience. We were greeted by friendly staff and told us what was on. My 5 yr old had a great time painting the car, taking photos and making them look beautiful.
Wonderful space full of engaging activities for toddler and young kids. This was the cleanest kids venue I’ve ever been to. My son ran the whole 2 hours from one space to the next and still cried when we had to leave as he was having so much fun. We will be back again soon.
