PLAYTIME ESSENTIALS

Before the fun begins, please take a moment to glance at our Play Guidelines below.

Socks Only Zone

Our indoor, enclosed play area is a Socks Only Zone for adults and children. Socks are a must - grippy ones for kids! Forget yours? We've got you covered with pairs for purchase.

Volume Control

We love laughter and lively play, but let's keep it sweet for our guests that prefer a more calm play space.

Always Watchful

While adults can work and relax here, children must always be within your loving gaze.

Shoes On for Adventure

Our outdoor, enclosed play area, Sunny’s Play Yard, is a Shoes Only Zone. Please do not wear play cafe socks in the Sunny’s Play Yard. No soiled socks will be allowed in the indoor play space.

Open to All

Ages 6 and under will find their play paradise here, but we welcome older children who cherish the joy of play. Parents are often pleasantly surprised by how much their older kiddos enjoy our space. Puzzles, legos, plus plus blocks, coloring items and more, can be found in the café area for older children, as well.

Food & Drink

Adult drinks are allowed in the indoor play space. Please refrain from bringing food and children’s drinks into the indoor play area. All SPC purchased food and drink are allowed in the outdoor play space.
