With its awesome indoor playground, its enrichment programs for children and its birthday party packages, Jungle Gym & Cafe is cleverly disguised as a wonderland for kids up to age 12.
However, step inside San Diego’s most unique mommy & me play space, and you’ll quickly discover that Jungle Gym & Cafe offers as many goodies for you as it does for your kiddos.
Last week my 5 & 6-year-olds enjoyed their first chess lesson, offered for free with our family membership.
During the hour-long instruction, I had the chance to answer emails using the Jungle Gym’s complimentary WiFi while savoring a wonderful lemon sorbet served in the biggest lemon I’d ever seen.
This afternoon the kids will enjoy a 25-minute yoga class while I kick back and catch up on my reading.
Then they will play with their classmates under the supervision of the Jungle Gym staff while my friend and I take an hour-long yoga class of our own. Adult fitness classes are offered before the Jungle Gym & Cafe’s indoor play space is open and after it closes, so the only children inside belong to the moms taking the classes.
Next week I will take advantage of their free childcare again when I get a pumpkin peel in the newly opened med-spa facilities. There’s also acupuncture and they’ll soon offer massage.
I know it sounds like I go to The Jungle Gym & Cafe to get a break from my kids and to take advantage of some mommy pampering and stress relief. That is true!
But I also have a lot of fun with my babies while we’re there playing badminton and air hockey together.
Join me at The Jungle Gym & Cafe (and spa!) this month. Any two classes are free, and I’ll cover your childcare for up to two kids. Just check out the fitness schedule and tell me which classes you’d most like to take. 5 winners will be selected this week!

I took my two kids (3 year old & 3 months old) there and loved it! I’ve really been wanting to check out their classes because I’m trying to lose the baby weight. I would love to try the kick-boxing and zumba classes they offer. Thanks for offering this giveaway!
I’ve wanted to try yoga and zumba for so long! I miss “me” time, it’s been 13 months! Would love to relax while my little one gets to make new friends and play!

Pure pump and step aerobics sound great…I am trying to get back into shape after having a baby three months ago (and I have an 18-month-old)….whew!
This is awesome and mommy & kids will have a good break from eachother. Especially if you are a stay home mom like me. I would love to try Zumba or Pure Pump. Dont know what is pure pump but name sounds interesting. Thank you
Yes please! New mommy here – need to get back into working out!
Would LOVE to visit this place! My friend belongs but I cannot afford it :o( I would need any beginner class, yoga and zumba sound fun! What a great offer! :o)
Yes, please! Abs/core/strength on Monday and Kick-Boxing on Tuesday. This would be FANTASTIC! 2 and 3 year old girls with a hubby deployed = in need of mommy time and physical release!!
I’d love to take Monday’s 9:15 class and/or Tuesday’s 9:15 class
I would love some yoga classes to destress!! Have two girls.. 6 and 18 months.. They are a handful!
Abs, Core, Stretch & Pure Pump are the classes I would take.
I don’t think I could take any of the lasses right now at 33 weeks pregnant, but sounds like a great place to go in the future.
Pick me, pick me
I would love to take the abs, core, and stretch class!
This would be a great opportunity to try yoga for the first time. Seems like a low key place. Can’t wait to check it out.
Oh oops, missed putting in the classes I would want. Ab, core strength looked cool and definitely Kickboxing!
Hoping we get picked! We live right down the road from this cool looking place. My 6 and 2 year old would be stoked!
So hard to choose! I haven’t done yoga since my oldest was born (he’s 5) and I miss it SO much! But then, I would love to try Zumba… Fingers. Tossed!
Oh this would be amazing! I need some mommy time, especially with my husband underway and no family around to help out when I need it!
So cool! Pick me pick me!!!
