A visit to Bronto’s Adventure Playland

    Back near the end of September I took my family to the newest attraction on Clifton Hill, Bronto’s Adventure Playland (I’d link to the web site, but Niagara Clifton Group still hasn’t update their website with any information yet).

    The attraction is essentially a giant, enclosed jungle gym (a lot of it was done by Prime Play). Everyone can go on it (even adults), but it is definitely for the kids. As you walk into the main area, on the right-hand side is a small room full of soft, spongy balls. There are several contraptions in the room where you can load the balls and they shoot throughout the entire place. There is also a big “volcano” which can be loaded with balls. The kids then press a button and the burst up into the sky. Since this all works with air compressors, the place is loader than I expected. On the left side is the area that you can climb up. There are rope ladders, staggered steps, and slides which kids can wiggle up and down through.

    There are also two other play ares inside underneath the driveway/parking lot of the Travelodge. One is a small jungle gym, the other is one for the kiddies. As of the time I was in there, there is no sign of a VeggieTales play area at all. All they had was some VeggieTales merchandise in the store.

    Overall, my kids absolutely loved it! My 5-year-old ran around non-stop for 45 minutes. His face was red from running around, but he wanted to keep going. My 3-year-old also had a great time, but since he isn’t as mobile as my older son, he didn’t have as good a time.

    I took some pictures while I was there. As is always the case, you can see some of the thumbnails below, and view all of the thumbnails and larger pictures in the Bronto’s Adventure Playland in Summer 2007 gallery.




    I also posted a video of Bronto’s Adventure Playland. The video is about a minute and a half and shows the “volcano” erupting as well as provides an overview of the attraction.
