Read more about this location
Up & Away Indoor Play is a locally owned Lawrence indoor playground built for active kids and easier parent hangouts. The space centers on a large climbing structure with slides, a ball pit, and a mini ninja-style challenge area, plus a separate infant and toddler section and hands-on play stations. Families can pair open play with coffee, snacks, and Wi-Fi, while birthday parties are a major part of the offering. It is a strong fit for siblings who need more than a tiny toddler-only setup.
