There’s a new Kid’s Gym in Town!

I often talk to parents who live in Arnold and Severna Park who have shared a frustration over the lack of kid friendly activities “next door,” compared to places like Annapolis or Columbia. Luckily for everyone, there’s a new Kid’s Gym in town.

The Play Street Museum opened on December 2 in the Severna Park shopping center next to Joann Fabric and the Honey Baked Ham Company. We were lucky enough to check it out and we had a blast.

The gym is ideal for kids in the 1.5-8 year range. Our 2 year old daughter loved it. Our son, who is 9, came along and at first he seemed hesitant, but by the end he was having just as much fun as everyone else. The gym is mostly constructed to be a small town with familiar local landmarks. Think grocery store with play food, pediatrician’s office with play doctor equipment, and so on. They have the nicest train table I’ve ever seen right in the middle.

On top of that they have crafts, pottery to paint, musical instruments, and a storefront. They also have a party room for those looking to find a birthday party location. You have to reserve a timeslot which helps to prevent it from feeling overcrowded but you get 1.5 hours to play which is plenty. What is really exciting is that they have play windows starting at 8:30am. Stop by one of the many Park Plaza restaurants afterwards for lunch and make a day of it!

Cost: $14.50 per child ages 1-8. Older & younger children are free only if accompanied by a paying sibling.
