Children's Express reporters review Kidzclub in Bangor, Northern Ireland, an indoor adventure play centre for the under-11s.
| It got out your aggression in a way which doesn’t hurt anyone. |
In a word, it was fun. It was good the way KidzClub had two separate play zones. One seemed to be suited to younger kids and one suited to slightly older ones. This meant it was safe for the younger kids to play safely.
I liked the ball pit the best. You could shoot people with balls and not hurt them. It got out all your aggression in a way which doesn't hurt anyone. After a while if you got bored in the ball pit you could go into the other play area. It was a mix of climbing, sliding, hanging and bouncing and very colourful.
The climbing area was very cleverly designed. The frames allowed you to do all sorts of playing, again avoiding the boredom factor. Somebody was having their birthday there at the time. I didn't like the way they weren't separate from everybody else, like in a special room or something. But that was the only drawback. Overall, we had a great time.
