Swings and Wings

"I visited Swings and Wings for the first time today with my toddler and it was an okay experience. There are several positives but a few concerns. It’s located in a shopping plaza, so there is parking, but it’s limited because of all the stores. Everyone needs to sign a waiver before entering which can be done online. One of the best things about this place is that you can enter and exit as much as you want without having to repay the entry cost. I would also recommend bringing a snack for your little one, as there is a vending machine with different options but everything is marked up. Inside there is a bounce house, swing area, arts and crafts area, sleep room, ball pit, and station for toys like legos. All children must wear socks with grips and if the grips aren’t “grippy” enough, you’ll have to buy socks there that you can keep. I wish the staff would have done more by way of cleaning up behind children and telling parents to control the actions of their child. Overall, not a bad place to visit."

"Can’t believe it was our first time here but my 2 kids and I finally visited Swings and Wings in Alameda, a multi-sensory play place offering a warm and fun atmosphere for children 18 mo-8 years (and their caretakers). The cost is approx $17 (with sibling discounts available) for an entire DAY of play! They also offer camps, classes date night drop-offs, party hosting and a preschool. There is a designated kitchen for enjoying snacks from their health-conscious vending machine—or your own brought from home. Lots of comfortable sitting spots (including a luxury massage chair) for the caretakers. The staff are warm, welcoming and attentive and make you feel right at home. It is clear that cleanliness and safety are a top priority here. Parents and caretakers, check out this local Bay Area gem! My kids had a hard time leaving even after 3.5 hours of play. We live in the Concord area but would happily drive to Alameda for this place. Great fun and great value!"

"Swings and Wings! They've thought of everything! A safe, CLEAN, well thought out place for children to learn and play. It's one of my new favorite play places, the floors and walls are padded, there are sitting areas, a vending machine, a chill room, a bounce house, an art room, play kitchen area, ball pit... I mean the list goes on. There was plenty of parking when we visited. I took my one year old, but I could have easily taken my 4 year old who would have also played happily for several hours. A great addition to East Bay!!! Looking forward to visiting again."
