Gambado Forest Hill is an indoor soft play centre with a giant multi-level play frame, ball pools, three-storey slides and a separate under-4s zone for toddlers and preschoolers. Younger children have a calm sensory room with lights, textures and sounds, and babies up to two have their own quiet area. Older children can also look forward to a laser tag arena, which the centre says is still to open. A cafe serves drinks, meals and treats for parents as well as children. Adults need their own ticket, and one grown-up must stay in the building with the children at all times. Buggies are left in the buggy park beside reception rather than taken into the play areas. The centre takes kids' birthday parties with party helpers, and offers memberships for regular play. Families are advised to book ahead, especially at weekends and in school holidays.
