Editor's Take

About the Venue

Rainbow of the Heartland – Des Moines is a play-through showroom in Grimes where families can use Rainbow swing sets, trampolines, and play systems during weekday open play and booked parties. It is a smart option for families who want active indoor play with lots of jumping and climbing, but it still feels more like a showroom that welcomes play than a traditional padded indoor playground.
