Cool-de-Sac a wonderful place to take your kids!

Cool-de-sac is an indoor children's play place paired up with a cafe/restaurant so that parents can eat & relax while their kids play. Cool de Sac features exciting activities that allow kids to “play smart” in clearly defined creative play stations: Arts, Blocks, Salon, Discovery, Games & Computers, A Play Unit, and a Tots area.

Here's why I like it: This place totally rocks! The food is great, service is good, prices on point. The activities are all designed to stimulate creativity & interest. Toys are the building kind (Lego, K'Nex,), the craft area is fully stocked (glue, glitter & all), and the dress-up area has a wide variety of girl and boy costumes. Computers are large-screen Macs loaded with fun educational software in favorite Nick Jr. characters. And get this, for grownups, WI-FI IS FREE, so you can work (or surf Facebook ) if you have to, while the kids have a blast. I come here frequently & my 4 year old daughter never tires of it! They also have a salon where your little princesses can get a "makeover" at no extra cost (aka nail painting, face painting). 



One day on FB I liked the Cool-de-Sac page to get information on special events, & discounts. They were having a giveaway for 4 passes to see the preview of Winnie the Pooh & 4 passes to a Cool-de Sac Winnie the Pooh afterparty. Well I won, I was chosen for being their most "energetic" fan & the events was in Dolphin mall. When I walked in the Cool-de-Sac there my mouth dropped to the floor, it was way bigger, with more technology, & the cafe looked more elegant like a restaurant. But after going to that location twice, I realized it was super packed, chaotic, full of older kids. So while I still love that location, I rather take Angel to the Sunset Place one.

Their prices are $13.50 for kids 3-12, $6.50 kids under 3. Teens & adults are free. They have 2 convenient locations:

Shops at Sunset

5701 Sunset Dr #355

Miami, FL 33143

305-446-1686

This location is more intimate, parking is not free (garage or meters necessary) employees are more attentive, and the activities are more geared toward smaller children.

Dolphin Mall

11401 NW 12 Street, Space # E610

Doral, FL 33172

305-477-5505

This location is bigger, parking is problematic, they have video games & Guitar Hero for older kids, and the employees are overwhelmed.
