What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise KidsSTOP for its highly educational and engaging hands-on exhibits, making it a favorite for young children. The dinosaur dig and construction zone are frequently highlighted as particularly enjoyable. While most staff are friendly, one reviewer noted an unpleasant encounter at the entrance regarding age verification, suggesting a need for more tactful customer service.
"Thoroughly fun and rather educational. There is a sandpit with "dinosaur bones" for excavating; "construction site" with workers' attire and balls for piling into a wheelbarrow, dumping with a claw machine or sending up a conveyor belt of sorts; a plane cockpit with pilot uniform; a space shuttle to pretend to steer; supermarket and attached kitchen with chefs' outfits; a farm-themed toddler play area where you can "milk" a cow and sort vegetables by shape; an "ant colony" area with spiral slide and ball pit plus large "Lego" blocks; and various other stations with facts about the seasons, aviation, a typhoon simulator, chairs with pulleys, etc. Toddlers were thoroughly absorbed for 3 hours. They also enjoyed the slide outside and admiring the model train chugging along near the ceiling."

"It was very educational and my child was engaged! The place was much bigger than I expected, I especially love the design of the dinosaur sand pit and the ant play area! It’s totally something different than other playhouses! I would highly recommend anyone to take their young toddler here!"

"My kids absolutely love Kidstop – especially my older child, who always asks to go whenever he has the chance. Although we don’t live nearby and only visit occasionally, it’s usually a great experience. Most of the staff are friendly, approachable, and wonderful with kids, which is something I truly appreciate.
However, our visit today was unfortunately marred by an unpleasant encounter at the entrance. I brought both my older child and my younger one, who is under 18 months old. When the staff member at the entrance asked if I had two tickets, I explained that my younger child is under 18 months. She gave me what felt like a forced or sarcastic smile and let us in, but then loudly said to her colleague, “This can pass off as 18 months old?” – seemingly referring to my child.
I found this comment extremely rude and uncalled for. Just because my children are a bit bigger in build (and honestly, I’ve seen many kids bigger than mine), it doesn't give anyone the right to question us in that manner, especially not so publicly. My younger one still has an obvious baby face and isn’t even speaking yet – and even if there was any doubt, a polite question or clarification would have been fine. The tone and manner in which it was done just felt very judgmental and unprofessional.
It would have been a 5-star review if not for this one staff member. I hope management can remind all staff to approach situations like this more tactfully and respectfully in the future."
