Math ‘n’ Stuff Activity Annex

While this location is a bit shabby (it’s an old auto parts store), it has parking, and the ACTIVITY is what makes it so awesome. We took our 8 year old daughter and 13 of her friends here recently for one of their Lego Birthday parties. They set up several tables with bins and bins of legos and minifig parts, and let the children make whatever they want for about an hour. The kids do get to take home varying amounts of legos, depending on whether you pick Gold, Silver, or Bronze rates for your party.
After the kids have checked out (they even learn a bit about money, saving, and budgeting through the lego play time), they get to have refreshments (which you, the parent, bring). That lasts about a half an hour, and then you leave. They clean up after your kids, and the helper they had there was really good with the children — she explained the concept well, then oversaw the party and made sure we recycled the recylables, and swept up after the kids, and basically just made it REALLY easy.
Plus, the kids were thrilled to take home their minifigs/​lego creations at the end of the party! It was awesome.
