WhereAl BarshaKids HQ (Play Area & Birthday Venue)Open in Maps

Kids HQ is an indoor play centre on Umm Suqeim Street in Al Barsha 2. Inside there is a soft play area with trampolines, obstacles and a big ball pit, a toddler pit with play structures and interactive toys, an interactive game room with a ball blower wall and projector games, a DIY studio with a daily craft schedule, and Cloud Play, which the centre describes as an all-day foam party. There is a cafe too. Families come in on a timed pass (a General Pass is AED 89 for 2 hours on the site in September 2026), use the drop-off option, where staff look after children for up to five hours, or book one of three birthday packages with a private themed room and an entertainer. In the school holidays the centre has run a day camp; Summer Camp 2026 ran Monday to Friday, 9AM to 2PM. The centre's schools page says it caters for children aged 1 to 10, so it suits families with toddlers and younger primary-age children.

The activity

Play Centres & Soft Play, explained

An indoor play centre is a pay-and-play venue where children climb, slide, crawl and explore in a padded, air-conditioned space, which is welcome in Dubai's hot months. Families usually buy a timed pass and stay for a couple of hours. Bigger centres mix a soft play frame with slides and a ball pit, a separate corner for toddlers, and calmer spaces such as craft tables or interactive games, and many have a cafe so parents can sit nearby. Most also host birthday parties in private rooms, and some offer supervised drop-off or holiday camp days. Indoor play suits children from crawling age to the early primary years.

Who it's for

Young children: the centre's schools page says it caters for children aged 1-10, and there is a toddler pit for the smallest. Ages for the drop-off option and holiday camps are not published, so ask the provider.

What to expect

Most visits are pay-as-you-play. On a General Pass (2 hours) children get play area access plus slime making; a Full-Day Pass gives 4 hours of complete access. Between the soft play, toddler pit, interactive game room and DIY studio there is plenty to move between, and the cafe offers a wide food selection, including healthy options. The drop-off option gives 5 hours of access with a caretaker. Weekday birthday parties start from AED 140 per child. Before your first visit, ask the centre about socks, adult entry and supervision, especially if you plan to use drop-off.
