Kzam Info
I went to Kzam this weekend to take a look to see if my son would like to have his 6th bday party there and he loved it and so did my little one (3). So just wanted to give some info b/c there were a few moms who were asking about it. I called earlier in the week and the woman I spoke to said I could come by on Saturday and take a look. So we did. The first room is an indoor playground (there are 3 levels) with slides and tons of balls. You feed the balls from the bottom of the playground in different receptacles and through tubes they are brought the 2nd and 3rd level of the playground. There are guns where the kids can shoot the balls and also a bucket that gets filled up and after a little while the bucket topples and the balls fall down. There is also a recepticle at the bottom where the kids put in the balls and then press a button and the balls shoot out. The kids spend 40mins in there. The 2nd room is an area with a DJ where the kids can dance or they can play "Gaga" (it's a dodgball type of game but it's all below the knees). or they can do a parachute game where they place the balls in the parachute and bounce them around. There is also a screen in the background that if you send them pics they will display Happy Birthday ____ and do a little montage of the pics. They spend 30mins in this room and then 30mins for pizza and cake. Overall, I loved the place. I'm inviting kids ranging from age 1-8 so it was important to me to find a place that provides activities for all and this place does. Very clean and the staff was very attentive. I booked with one of the owners and she was great. If you are interested, I would recommend calling and see if you could set up a tour.

DS went to a party there Sun the kids loved it. It's something different they loved the ball thing so much they barely made it into the gaga pit. The majority of the kids attending were 8-9 yo boys.

Re: Kzam Info
I had DD's 6th birthday party there this past Saturday. Overall it was a good experience and I loved that it was different. Several of the moms said their kids now wanted a party there, so I see that as a bonus.
You get 40 minutes in the ball room...which i think should have been 10 minutes longer and they loved every second. The GAGA room felt a little forced, but maybe because we had 30 kids . The lead girl was not fantastic with the kids...which really only mattered in the GAGA room. The music, parachute, freeze dance, and limbo was fun.
Pizza and cake was provided (princess themed carvel cake was a nice touch) You can bring your own cake, but I barely had enough time for the invites, so I added it on.
I also went for the individualized picture favors. VERY CUTE 5x7 of the kids. Only issue was the girl printing them out had no organization. Multiples of one kid, none of some others...and the chick was ANNOYED when I called it out. Tried to farm a group shot off on one of the kids (um, not what I was paying for) I had to wait and then assist with some of the last few and a couple of people had to leave without, which was annoying...but all in all, the pictures were a nice touch.
Another HUGE plus for me was for 20 bucks I received 10 5x7 pics, mostly of DD and then a fun group shot of them getting foam balls dumped on them...very cute. And I didn't have to have heart palpitations trying to limp around getting pictures...
Overall, I give this place two thumbs up...they are new and definitely need some improvements, but they are only improvements that parent would know about, the kids love it.

Re: Kzam Info
Is it too "old" to have my 3 year olds party there ? The guests would be older kids mainly ages 4-8 ...Sounds like a lot of fun , but not sure about the age
What do you think?

Re: Kzam Info
This sounds amazing. I wish I didn't already put a down on DS party. Non refundable.
Next year for sure.
Anyone mind sharing the cost?

I think it would be fine. My 3yr old also came with us to check the place out and he didn't want to get out of the playground area

sure, $479 up to 20 kids (bday child is free). $14.95 each additional kid. This includes pizza and drinks for kids. Pizza for adults is $15 a pie and $2.50 for each bottle of soda. You can bring your own cake.

Re: Kzam Info
If you want to see pics from a KZAM party, please send me your email. My husband took great pics and gives you a great picture as to how the party is run.
They also make every kid use purell before entering the maze and ball room. This was an added touch that I liked.
Party was great...
I brought my own cake.
