Yu Kids Island

Postby angie » Fri Jun 15, 2007 21:08

There is a new indoor playspace called Yu Kids ISland. Located in the Geant Building in Dazhi near Miramar.
The place is very clean and all the equipment is soft, balloons are a big feature.

200nt per child

Everyone must wear SOCKS

A friend just had her daughters birthday there. She got a room, entrance for 8 kids and a cake for 3000nt

Yu Kids Island in Tianmu

Postby beya » Mon Oct 08, 2007 13:58

There is a Yu Kids Island in the Mitsukoshi in Tianmu. We were there yesterday. It's smaller than the one in Dazhi but still ok. Same equipment basically, same price etc.
It's on the 6th floor (the children floor).

This is perfect. Much closer to our place than the other one.

Thanks for the information - I very rarely go to the 6th floor of Mitsukoshi in Tianmu, so it might have been a while until I would have noticed myself.

Is this 200 NT for the whole day? Do adults pay?

200NT per child. Not sure if there is a time limit, don't think so.
One parent per child is free. You have to wear socks if you forgot they sell some at the counter (25NT).

Hi,

Does anyone know what time the Dasi Yu Kids opens each morning? I can't read their website.

I know the Tianmu one doesn't open until 11am. That's a bit too late.

Thanks,
Michelle

It opens from 10am-10pm.

I took my 2 year old today. I'd forgotten how much fun it was there!!

I took my 3 year old to the one on Mitsukoshi in Tiemu (sixth floor) yesterday. He absolutely loves it! NT200 for unlimited time.

We also love the Mitsukoshi one, but this bigger one is worth travelling to if you have the time. It's a bit better for the bigger kids- a litte bigger than twice the size of the Tianmu one, with more things to jump on, and more space to run.

It's also 200NT per visit. The downside is the millions of ride on cars etc you have to walk past from the carpark to get to Yu Kids. The ride-in-car-shopping-trolley paled in comparison to these temptations.
