The Spokane indoor playground that understands the assignment

It’s 3:15 p.m., and the front door erupts as if blasted open by a battering ram. Your front hall is a blur of backpacks and mud-streaked shoes. The kitchen counter’s barely visible through the half-empty juice boxes and crumbs from hastily grabbed snacks. At least one child is vaulting over a chair, while another clings to the banister like a wild tree-dwelling creature. Your youngest? They found the peanut butter and now you’re finding salty and sticky handprints on every surface.

As you catch your breath, a thought flickers in your mind: an indoor playground. A place where trampolines and foam pits await, leaving your lamps unbroken and your walls peanut-butter-free.

You corral the kids, grab coats (or do they even need them?), and make a beeline for Flying Squirrel.

Have you ever been at this point in your week of parenting? The point where you realize that the solution to the chaos is leaving the house immediately and going somewhere the kids can freely move their bodies? Well, I have. And I’ve never been more grateful that there is an indoor playground for kids that lets them let loose (without knocking over a lamp, shooting a NERF dart into the soup on the stove or taking apart the living room couch).

My kids beg me to go to Flying Squirrel frequently. And I am usually happy to say YES. Because I’m so grateful for an activity everyone is excited about that is also actually good for them. Three cheers for indoor kids playgrounds that understand the assignment.

 

An indoor playground in Spokane crafted with parent survival in mind

Spokane parents: Flying Squirrel is about to become your new go-to spot. And here’s why: they have thought about everything kids need, and they’ve thought about everything parents want. This is not your average playground visit. 

 

  • You will never run out of snacks and have to call it quits early. 
  • There is always a bathroom (why don’t all playgrounds have them?!)
  • Your child won’t complain about the weather or have to find a lost mitten or sunhat.
  • Your child will not say “I’m bored!!!” even once. It’s kind of impossible to be bored at Flying Squirrel Spokane’s indoor playground.

 

A Spokane indoor playground that lets kids do what they are always trying to do (but can’t) at home

Flying Squirrel is the epitome of giving kids what they crave—those wild, unrestricted moves they constantly attempt at home, now transferred to a place that embraces them.

  • If your child loves climbing on the counter and jumping off couch cushions, they'll love the climbing wall and the airbag trampoline launch lanes. 
  • If your child loves showing you all "their cool tricks" they will be thrilled with the stunt jump airbag.
  • If they can't stop cartwheeling and doing gymnastics moves in the living room, they will love the aerial silks and the slackline. 
  • If you have to remind them a million times that they may not play with balls in the house, they'll love the dunk hoops area. 
  • If their favorite activity is fighting and wrestling with their siblings, they can bring that energy to the battle beam.
  • The rope swing and zipline are for the kids that are always trying to recreate scenes from Home Alone at home.
