The kiddie party scene in Manila has evolved from throwing parties at home, to throwing them in fast food chains, to renting out event venues and large restaurants, sometimes even hotels. Today, we list down some of the other venues you can consider for your active toddlers or kids as we share with you play gyms and play areas in the Metro! Most of these places have sections for parties so you can have your usual snacks and desserts and send off your guests to an adrenaline rush. Because really, who wouldn’t enjoy giant slides and mazes and running around on a sugar high?
1. ACTIVE FUN (Taguig). Designed by a physiological therapist, Active Fun offers a spacious activity centre that enhances children’s physical and social skills through a padded playground fit for kids and adults alike (you do have to run after them after all!) It also has other branches in leading malls in Manila that offer play time and party packages.

2. ADVENTURE ZONE (Taguig). They were right to describe themselves as the “ultimate indoor playground”! They have a dedicated play gym for kids 4 years old and below so you can rest easy knowing your baby won’t have to keep up with the older kids.

Wow! This article is so informative, love the Jump Yard in Pasig, too bad it’s far from Cavite.
We’ve attended birthday parties at Active Fun, Gymboree, and Little Gym. Now I’m curious about Trampoline park. 🙂
These venues make me want to be a kid again! hahahaha! Will consider these venues in the future coz I think my two daughters are already a little grown up for these! 🙂 Thanks for sharing! 🙂
My kids grew up playing at Active Fun and Gymboree. The twins are now 13 and bunso is 10. Time to check out Trampoline!
I thought #5 and #10 was just the same place. Now, I know. Lol! I’d like to try both as I can play with my kids, too.
my boys have never been to any of the mentioned places! Sounds like fun and hope to bring them in any soon! They so love trampoline!
My boys love Active Fun, Fun Ranch and Kidzoona! They also liked Gymboree when they were younger.
Taking three extremely active kids to places like Active Fun is a huge challenge for me. Di ko kinaya the last time, it was so stressful. Maybe Gymboree with more regulated activities is more like me kaya lang my kids might get bored. Thanks for this list. Will check the rest.
Lots of places to bring your child in. I wish we have lots of choices here in Cebu too. Unfortunately we only have in malls and they are small areas only.
My son is celebrating his birthday next month and I am looking for a venue to celebrate his party. This is a very useful list.
So many choices! Kailangan ng mag-ipon for the son’s 7th birthday ngayon pa lang! Haha
These places all look so fun. Jumpyard is so near our place but we haven’t tried it there yet. Tsk tsk.
These are all indeed nice venues for a party. Surely the kids will be happy pplaying or jumping or just running around, while the mommies are all busy taking photos. Ehehe.
I’d love to take my son to Jump Yard. I’m sure he’ll love it there!
What a great list! I’d love to try the Jump Yard and ballpit, kaso dapat high energy kami nito!
Thanks for sharing, will take note on this for a future reference 🙂
That Ball Pit Manila is so popular these days. Some of my colleagues went there and they seem to really enjoy.
Nowadays we have a lot of choices for birthday party venue, kaso mukhang nakakapagod pag sa play ground or sa mga active fun ang hirap mag gather ng mga bata lalo na pag mga active, hehehe pero masaya naman. Thank you for this following tips.
Hello. Pls help me find a sponsor to rent the venue at 8wackwack or the address. It’s for my son’s birthday celebration. Thanks
