Kidtastic Park is a safe, clean and fun-filled indoor playground where children can grow, learn and play. From celebrating birthdays to discovering new adventures, our playground is designed with parents and kids in mind. From a special toddler area for children learning to walk and needing a smaller area to play in to twisty tunnels and super slides for the bigger kids, Kidtastic Park is about learning while playing. With a zip line, merry-go-round, slides, obstacle courses, educational elements, and so much more, we want to encourage more family time. With COVID, capacity is limited by requiring reservations and we clean AND sanitize between every play session.

Little Matts Cafe is a small neighborhood restaurant that opened in 2009 and has always had a focus on giving back to the community. Little Matt's owners donate the proceeds to Texans Children's Hospital in memory of their son Bobby who was a patient there. The cafe started as a way to provide a fun respite for families dealing with illness. At the front of the restaurant, there is a "Wish Wall" where guests can be reminded of wishes that do come true every day. During COVID-19, Little Matt's has kept all of their staff and continued to ensure that them and their families have all the support they need.
