Children's entertainment in Auckland

“My daughter was enrolled in Learning tree hobsonville since last year. She has been enjoyed her life there with so many good friends and nice teachers. My younger one also enrolled there after he turned 8 months. He was unbelievably well-cared by the lovely teachers, gaining confidence and new skills much faster than before. I cannot recommend more.”

“Great place plenty to keep the kids and adults entertained. Hosted a 7 year olds birthday in a great glow in the dark room and laser tag with 11 kids chaotic but so much fun had by all highly recommended. Staff were very accommodating and provided clear instructions nice one guys appreciate the effort!!”

“Had a great time today at Lilliputt. Arrived about 12.30pm. No wait time at all, played both courses stopping for lunch in between. The food was fabulous and came out quickly. The courses are really well done and look forward to coming back again soon!”

“Absolutely amazing experience! The service here is exceptional — the staff were super friendly, helpful, and patient throughout. The furniture selection is huge with plenty of styles to choose from, and everything is well-organized in the showroom. I was really impressed by the quality. Best of all, the prices are very affordable compared to other stores. Highly recommended!”

“Good place to get presents. Often see nice clothes and kitchen stuff at bargain prices”

“Really lovely club. Sheltered outdoor seating, beautiful native park like gardens.”

“Very convenient theatre, decent size approximately 800 seating capacity.”

“Two Rainbow slides, two picnic tables and one two seats swing. Lots of fun”

“Great place to enjoy junior football with grandson on Saturday morning...3-0 great win!!!”

“New interesting playground on a high slope. Long pipes-slides, swing-baskets with 360-degree rotation, high chain swings, other interesting entertainment and activities for children from 8 years old and older. Nice panoramic view. There is no fence, but children will not run out onto the street, because the playground is located in the depths of the park. The design really looks secure.”

“Highly impressed. Very clean and has a range of bouncy castles to suit kids of different ages. The staff are also very safety conscious. The young bloke supervising was polite but absolutely committed to making sure the kids were playing safely.”

“Small but good space space the kids to play.”

“Safe place to walk and let the kids play.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I had an excellent experience with Shaveta at Farmers LynnMall. She was extremely friendly, professional, and very helpful. She guided me patiently, answered all my questions, and made sure I found exactly what I needed. Her customer service was outstanding, and I truly appreciate her support. Highly recommend her!””

“Overall, our experience with Swimsation has been positive. The staff genuinely care about the kids, and the environment feels professional but more importantly, welcoming. We don’t usually leave reviews, but we want to say how much we appreciate Heart. She’s kind, attentive, and clearly cares. She always takes the time to check in on our child’s progress and makes us feel seen. Swimsation, you’ve made a great hire with Heart, and that speaks to the quality of the whole team. We hope she and everyone at Swimsation know how much they’re appreciated.”

“We really enjoyed our morning out with this mini golf course. Lots of challenging holes and a nice clean and good condition course's. The whole thing is covered so you won't get burnt by the sun. Right next to the mall, so great location and plenty of parking.”

“This archaeologically significant heritage site is under restoration and is not open to the public. The park is situated on one of the last volcanic cones rising above the industrial roofs of East Tamaki. Along with the neighbouring church land it makes up the remaining 13 hectare of a 160 hectare farm established by Reverend Gideon Smales in the late 1850s. Hampton Park - Large old tree with a long rock wall in the background”

“Received help from a lovely worker by the name of Jaimee and saying she changed my life would be an understatement! The clothing section looked fabulous for such a busy day and she was the only employee I saw even attempting to have it looking proper! She helped me at my worst after feeling like a whale in a sundress but she made me realise I am beautiful regardless, I went out for lunch later on in that same dress and have never felt more fabulous, truly life changing customer service xx Sue-Ann.”

“This place is perfect for an hours entertainment and fitness for toddlers, kids and adults. It’s quieter and has a more local feel so that the instructors can play with the kids and the little ones have space to jump and run. My mum has brought my son here for their toddlers play hours during the week and they loved that too!”

“I’ve taken my kids to Auckland Adventure Park a few times and they absolutely love the luge and the 4D cinema! It’s a fantastic place for children aged 4 through to teens. For younger kids—especially those in preschool and primary school—it’s an amazing venue for birthday parties. Their castle-themed party room is a real highlight, perfect for children who love medieval and knight-themed adventures. For older kids, the zipline and VR games offer plenty of excitement too. Highly recommended for a fun family day out or a memorable birthday celebration!”

“We take the kids here for Saturday basketball - the coaches are great and the kids have got a lot from these sessions. recommend!”

“Profoundly upset & frustrated to learn that The Warehouse has been been strong-armed out of Milford Mall, despite the Group's offer of favourable financial terms & the overwhelming support of locals in the area. We are losing the ONLY outlet providing DIY, Gardening, Furniture, Crafts, Home/Kitchen Ware, Appliances, Tech, - to name a few. It's a lovely, peaceful place with delightful ambiance. The last thing we need is a gym!”

“Fantastic support staff like Uthra and Hanna. The former helped my wife with getting desired undergarments and the latter helped with right choice of female perfume. Great experience with the staff. Keep up the good work.”

“Pretty good place to swim at however it does get a bit cold sometimes especially in winter. Usually in holidays the fun lane at daytime does get quite a lot of people going there. They have really nice staff there and are very helpful. The elevator which is outside the doors below the stairs to the left sometimes does take a while for it to come down and open sometimes. Its pretty nice since most of the time in the mornings all the other lanes do not have much people swimming there so theres usually plenty of lanes.”

“Massive range of fabrics and bedding. From the outside the shop looks small but it is quite large in there and has more than you would think. I was looking for iron on patch material and the staff were happy to help even though it was 20 minutes to closing. The fabrics is upstairs so if you have mobility issues the stairs might be an issue.”

“I have absolutely LOVED this gym. Everyone is friendly, the gear is great, it’s rarely crowded, and having the basketball court has been a great bonus.”

“My two kids started swimming at Swimsation Te Atatu Peninsula in April 2024. They had very limited skills when they started (way below their school age level). With the support of the great teachers they learnt so much in just a few months that now they are swimming beyond their school age level. The staff is kind and accomodating, we managed to catch up with our make up classes every time we had one missed class. Thank you! Keep up the good work, you guys are great!”

“Outstanding service start to finish from Clarence and Irene. Despite being busy we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. They both were attentive, knowledgeable and genuinely cared. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience Terry and Rina”

“I hate Shopping and had to buy some pants and shirts. I was lucky that an exceptionally professional, experienced and helpful team member named Alex has helped me to get everything I needed in the shortest time possible. THANK YOU Alex”

“We visited Crystal Mountain during the week ( school term ) it is a great place with lots to offer and very unusual and interesting things to see. It boasts A Crystal Museum and store, Huge indoor play area, two cafes, carousel rides and a roller coaster, interesting animals, large dinosaur statues and more... Lots of free parking on-site . Ideal for all ages and for kids birthday parties. You get to Interact with most animals and feed them (the animal food is sold at the main entrance Cafe) The indoor play area includes 3 rides ( Carousel, teacup and train), a jumping castle plus a Massive activity area and a separate play area for toddlers Outside activities includes a train ride, roller coaster and tractor ride. The two cafes have a variety of food on their menu and is child friendly, one cafe is situated at the main entrance and the other at the indoor play area. The staff are super super kind ,friendly , interactive and helpful. We noticed a few of the staff cover alot of responsibility of the park and even with all that responsibility they still made our visit so much more fun. A huge thanks to the amazing team namely the young lady that does the train ride and sees to the animals, the young gentleman that operates the indoor rides and oversees the indoor play area and the helpful lady at the cafe who took the time to explain all that we needed to know so that we made the most of our time there. The Crystal Museum store sell so many beautiful and unusual items. Cons: The Main cafe food is substandard but cheap, we didnt try the food at the play area Cafe. When we bought our tickets on Grab One we ensured we bought the full access tickets there was no mention that during the school term week the Rollercoaster and tractor rides do not operate, we only found this out at the cafe counter when we handed our tickets in. I will definitely be going back.”
