Monkey Joes..

I really loved taking the kids here!!

It was fun for the kids to play and for the parents to be indoors away from the HOT sun and humid weather.. Place is perfect for rainy days too..

Monkey Joes is a Kids Indoor Inflatable Playground!!



Bring your kids to Monkey Joe's fun-filled inflatable play center! They have wall-to-wall inflatable slides, jumps, and obstacle courses will keep your kids active, happy, and healthy. The play center is suitable for kids 12 years-old and younger. The Mini Monkey Zone is a separate toddler play area that will keep your little ones safe and secure.


While your kids monkey around, you can take advantage of our adult area, which features comfortable seating, free high-speed wireless Internet, flat screen televisions, and computer stations. Although they provide this adult area, they strongly suggest parents to take an active role in supervising their children during play time..

It is also a great place to host a birthday party! Here are the kids all excited about seeing Joe himself.


DON'T FORGET TO WEAR SOCKS! They require that socks be worn at all times in the play areas.

They have a pretty good concession area and the admission fee was not so bad $7.00 per child and adults are free.

Here are 2 Happy kids :)on the way out of Monkey Joes

Vista View Park!!

Today I took care of my godson so his parents could go out to a "Miami Heat" game. After about two hours at my house we decided to take the kids out for a day of play. We packed the car and the kids and hit this new park.

At 272 acres of green rolling hills and meadows, Vista View offers a wide range of activities. Eight different picnic shelters offer plenty of room for family picnicking. Other amenities include 2 playgrounds, basketball courts, boat rentals, equestrian corral, an airstrip for electric radio-controlled plane and glider pilots, fishing docks and an area for primitive group camping. In addition, outdoor enthusiasts have been attracted to the park for its athletic challenges. The hills and fitness trail have become a training ground for many sporting activities.

The park has some really nice picnic shelters complete with picnic tables, a grill, and electric outlets. These can be reserved on weekends for parties. Other picnic areas located in the park without shelters are on a first come first served basis. They have these really nice playgrounds, both playgrounds are covered with shade canopies and offer many different types of play apparatus. The larger playground is a Universal Access playground which can be utilized by all different levels of ability. The playground, named Caitlyn’s Corral, is in memory of Caitlyn Munson and dedicated to all children who play there. This park is really nice and it is great for all children but I noticed the little ones "under 5" have lots to do there! I am starting to think that if my husband gets me a bike, I may try to start working out there. They have great paved pathways for walking, running, rollerblading, or recreational cycling. They also have great hills which make it the perfect place for cycling or running that is one thing you may not be able to do anywhere else in South Florida.

This place is really nice and the kids really enjoyed it.
