Indoor Playgrounds and Play Areas in Minneapolis, MN
Minneapolis has about four months a year when outdoor play is a negotiation. This is the list we keep for the rest of them. We track 25 indoor playgrounds across the Twin Cities metro. A few are in the city proper. Most are not, because most of the good ones are out in Woodbury, St Paul and Plymouth, and a twenty minute drive is not the part of the day that goes wrong. Opening hours and admission are on the cards below rather than buried on the individual listings. 11 of these venues publish an admission price, and every one of those prices was checked word for word against the page it came from. Admission runs $6 to $24, based on the 11 here that publish a price.

Where a card says no price or no hours listed, the venue does not publish it. We would rather leave the gap than fill it with a guess. Prices come from each venue's own website, and we publish one only when the figure appears on the page we took it from. Tell us if we are missing one you know.
Common questions about indoor playgrounds in Minneapolis
How many indoor playgrounds are there in Minneapolis?
We list 25 indoor playgrounds within 57 miles of Minneapolis, MN. Every one is a published listing with an address we checked.
Which indoor playgrounds in Minneapolis publish their prices?
11 of the 25 here do, and each price was checked word for word against the venue's own page before we published it. The rest do not publish one, so their card says no price listed rather than carrying a guess.
Which indoor playgrounds in Minneapolis suit a toddler?
15 of them list an age range starting at two or under. Check the age line on each card, because a place that suits a six-year-old does not always suit a two-year-old.
How did Mini Navigators choose these indoor playgrounds?
We list every one we have within 57 miles of the center of Minneapolis. Each is a published place with an address we geocoded and checked, and the business can claim its listing to keep the hours and prices current.
Do adults have to pay?
It varies more than you would expect, from free to full price, and it changes the cost of a visit by a lot when there are two of you. The price on each card is what it costs to get a child in. 11 of the 25 on this page publish a price at all, so call ahead about the adult rate before you rely on it.
Do I need to book ahead?
Often not, but toddler sessions are capped and birthday parties can close the whole floor, so check the day before. Where a venue publishes a booking page, the listing links straight to it.
What should I bring?
Socks for everyone going on the equipment, adults included, and water. These rooms get hot. Whatever else you need is in the notes beside the listings above.
What else is there to do with kids in Minneapolis?
Minneapolis has 20 categories of kid-friendly places on Mini Navigators, from playgrounds and museums to splash pads and zoos. The Minneapolis hub lists all of them.
