We went here with our two granddaughters and their kids. What a awesome place to spend time with family. The kids just wore themselves out playing and running all over the place playing in a safe environment.

This is a good place for children under 10. Older children would not care for it. Great outing for small children.

This was our first visit and it most definitely with not be our last. All three of our boys (ages 5, 4 and 18 months) enjoyed themselves throughly and never once complained of being bored or not having enough to do.
The “Under 36 months” area was absolutely perfect for our youngest as he was just tickled with all the space and things to do. Plus, I was more relaxed as didn’t have to worry that he’d get knocked over by bigger kids.
Employees were engaging from the purchase counter to all of the stations. The areas were kept clean, everything was well lit and I didn’t feel as though we’d need to take a bleach bath to get the germs off as we’ve experienced at other kid-fun places.
Overall we spent 4 hours and that was just enough to fit in a quick lunch that we picked up from across the street. Thankfully there was a small cafeteria (with high chairs) that we could get a quick bite at.
I strongly recommend this location. It’s great and we are very much looking forward to another visit!
Thank You Discovery Place!!!

We took our 5 year old granddaughter and thought she really enjoyed it, she especially enjoyed the diner and kitchen area and the vet practice. Several areas to explore and she really took her time going through each one. WE thought the puppet show was a little boring but the rest outstanding, she liked the craft area, working on cars and microscopes, too.

This is a great place to take kids. I try to take my son somewhere when they have days out of school to keep him engaged (and off electronic devices) I took him and a friend Friday and they had a great time. I love that it gives them a chance to play and learn

The Discovery Place in Rockingham, NC is an excellent place to take your children on a day trip. Both children and their parents will have a great time with all the learning activities, and special events put on by the staff. Parents can even let their children free-range a bit, as there is so much to keep the young minds occupied. This is definitely going to be a regular visit for my family.
