Will it snow in Beaverton? Will it rain? Nobody ever really knows! But whatever the weather, this is the time of the year when moms with little ones long to get out of the house and find a play area more exciting than the living room. Of course, taking your baby or toddler to a Baby Express Signing With Baby class is always a great idea! Our classroom is a nice sized space with toys, music and fun where you get to play and learn some signs as an added bonus. But what if you want to get out of the house more than once a week for our baby sign class? An indoor playground might be exactly what you need! Beaverton has several nice indoor playgrounds just waiting to be explored.  Here is a list of local indoor play spaces that you might want to check out!  And while you're looking, don't forget to learn the sign for PLAY! ​

Pump It Up Jr. of Beaverton
16205 NW Bethany Ct Ste 120
Beaverton, OR 97006
(503)645-1042

Toddler Only Pop in Playtime
Children ages 3 and under can play on soft, fun-filled, interactive inflatables in a safe, clean, climate controlled environment.
Hours:  Thursday | 9:30am - 12:00pm
Friday | 9:30am - 12:00pm
Cost: $8 per child / $5 ages 24 months & under 

Munchkin Playland
18335 NW West Union Rd
Portland, OR 97229
503-533-5438

(*UPDATE* Munchkin Playland appears to have gone out of business.  They are currently closed and will be looking for buyers to purchase the Playland until October 2020. Their website is no longer working so I am updating the link above to direct you to their Facebook page for more information.) Children under 42 inches tall can play on fun animals and structures inspired by the state of Oregon.  In addition to the main play area, there are numerous play options surrounding it, including a food cart, baby dolls, kitchens and a caterpillar tunnel.  Parents can also enjoy treats while they watch their little ones.  The cafe serves a variety of food and drink options and has free wi-fi.
Hours:  Monday-Friday | 9AM-5PM and Saturday-Sunday | 9AM-1PM
Cost: $8 per child or $5 for crawlers and cruisers. Multi-visit play pass cards are also available.
(Note: I have been here and the staff works hard to keep it very clean.  I see employees wiping down play structures multiple times during a visit!)

Oceanplays
1001 SE Tualatin Valley Hwy A24,
Hillsboro, OR 97123
(503) 608-9066

This play extravaganza is one giant square structure with multiple levels, tunnels, bridges, slides, ball pits, swings and ball cannons. There is quite a lot for kids to explore in this elaborately designed play maze.  There are tables for parents and some packaged snacks available for purchase.
Hours: Sunday-Thursday 10:00 am - 7:30 pm and Friday-Saturday: 10:00 am - 8:30 pm
Cost: Weekdays ages 1-3 $5 and ages 4-12 $8.  Weekends and holidays ages 1-3 $6 and ages 4-12 $10
(Note: Having been here, I would say that the staff are very nice and seem invested in the customer experience. The structure may be hard for little ones to navigate on their own, but parents are allowed to go on it with them.  I don’t think it would be a great fit for crawlers or cruisers.  At times the older kids can be a little overbearing inside the structure but staff is watchful. The play area is very clean and well-maintained.)
