Great place. PS Oksana, you sound a bit obsessive-compulsive!
Nice not to be the only dad there. You don't leave your child there. There's lots of stuff to do with them (or take a paper and by a coffee).
Lovely place to take your kids and for them to be creative!
Took our 1 and 3 year olds and a picnic and had a lovely day last sunday. Clean floor, lovely stuff for the kids to do, garden is a favourite.
A lovely place for under 5's to use their imaginations! safer than a petting zoo!
Its very terrible and dirty place, i was so afraid to leave my child there, you can catch any disease, i spend just 10 min!!!
