Kids Can Play Safe at Chuck E. Cheese’s

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Chuck E. Cheese’s. The opinions and text are all mine!

I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for me to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. Read my full disclosure policy here.

It’s that time of year where most schools take a scheduled Spring Break.  As a parent, it can be a little daunting trying to come up with ideas to keep your kiddos busy for a whole week, so today I am sharing about a great place your family can visit that’s clean, safe, and **most important** FUN!

Would you believe that my kids had never been to Chuck E. Cheese’s before now?  They were beyond excited, to say the least.

Here are the top 3 things we loved about our Chuck E. Cheese experience…

Clean

I can be a bit of a germophobe at places like this where lots of kids are running around touching various game machines.  I look around and see nothing but Influenza and Pink Eye and Strep Throat!

So you can imagine how happy I was to see that right when we walked into our Chuck E. Cheese store, we were greeted with this lovely display >>

And after we entered the room, we found a few more sanitation stations for my kids to use in between games.

To make things even better, Chuck E. Cheese’s has recently teamed up with Kids Play Safe – a research organization committed to protecting the health, safety and well-being of children.  Kids Play Safe and Chuck E. Cheese’s worked together to identify ways to implement more effective, environmentally-conscious cleaning practices in its restaurants nationwide. This earned Chuck E. Cheese’s the Kids Play Safe Certification, making it the first major brand to be recognized for its commitment to providing a safe, clean and eco-friendly place for its guests.

A great perk of this new partnership is that employees regularly take time to wipe down the games located throughout the restaurant.

This is especially encouraging to a mama who has a child that pulls stunts like this >>

After I died a thousand deaths inside and wondered if there is a way to patent a tongue sanitizer, I about hugged this guy who came out to clean up.

Safe

Not only was I impressed with Chuck E. Cheese’s conscious efforts to keep their environment germ-free, I was really excited about their commitment to keeping kids safe.

Chuck E. Cheese’s Kid Check program at the entrance requires that everyone in your party receive the same unique hand stamp. Employees check hands before you’re allowed to leave the restaurant to ensure that you take out only the children you brought with you.

I felt comfortable letting my boys roam freely and apparently lick all the steering wheels. 🙂

Fun

Finally, not only was Chuck E. Cheese’s clean and safe, but my boys had the BEST time!  We ate pizza, played hard, and even got to meet Mr. Chuck E. himself.

If you don’t want pizza, Chuck E. Cheese’s offers other menu options – including a beautiful salad bar.  Plus, parents can enjoy free Wi-Fi while the kids run around!

And I can’t forget to mention that this little outing was totally affordable!  Entry to Chuck E. Cheese’s is always free.

I also love that Chuck E. Cheese’s doesn’t have tokens anymore.  Kids get super fancy Play Passes that can be loaded however often you please.  Just swipe and play!  I may or may not have “borrowed” Jethro’s Play Pass to play a round of Skeeball myself.  <Best.Game.EVER.>

My boys had a blast playing games and gathering tickets.  When you’re ready to go, simply feed your tickets into the Ticket Muncher and everything is counted for you.  Then print a receipt and pick out some small prizes!

In the end we had a few extra tickets, so we put on our Kindness Antennae and handed them out to some little ones before we left!

Both of my boys thanked me on the car ride home for taking them to Chuck E. Cheese’s.  I know they will remember it for a long time!

Ready to have some fun at Chuck E. Cheese’s this Spring Break?  Let me know if you go and what you think!

Joyfully,

Julie 🙂

    What do you think is the perfect age range for Chuck E Cheese? I’m thinking 9 years and under?

I like to make people happy.✨ Author of #thekindnessantennae 🎉 💛Psalm 28:7💛
  • The Queen was welcomed to Heaven today. ❤️‍🩹

There are no words to adequately express what earth lost this morning. She was selfless, loving, kind, fun, glamorous, hard-working, positive, faithful, and so strong - right up to the end. 🤍

I grieve not being able to hear the sound of delight in her voice when we talked. She always called me her little Songbird. Her laugh was like tinkling bells. She taught me so much about loving God and loving others and living in quiet, faithful excellence for His glory. 🙌🏻

I’m just so thankful that her legacy lives on in my own mom and her 5 siblings and their families! Truly one of a kind people, living for God, faithfully and in His strength, day in and day out. 💛

Mom-Mom! I love you so much. I will miss you so much. I can’t wait to see you again. 🕊️

“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭116‬:‭15‬ ‭NIV‬‬

  • All Noah wanted for his 17th birthday was a Honda Civic… 

So we got him one. 😉
  • 🌴 I love palm trees. 🌴 

They don’t break in storms - they bend *with* the storm. ⛈️ (John 16:33)

They stay green all year round. 💚 (Psalm 92:14)

They grow best when it’s hot. ☀️ (Jeremiah 17:8)

They produce good fruit to be a blessing to others. 🥥 (Galatians 5:22-23)

They point straight up to heaven, reminding us of the goal. ⬆️ (Philippians 3:20)

Their branches are symbolic of victory. 🌿 (John 12, Revelation 7)

Go and be like a palm tree today! 🏝️🙌🏻🤩

“The righteous will flourish like the palm tree…” Psalm 92:12
  • ☀️Annual happy place week!☀️

The boys are trying to shoot me with water guns while I sit by the pool. The moon is a sweet bright spot in the night sky. A couple just rode by on the Broadwalk with music and extravagant lights on their bikes. The wind is gently moving the palm tree branches. Zion has a case of late night giggles. Noah is eating 3 scoops of ice cream from the Ben and Jerry’s shop and I am wishing this night will never end!

Thank you for another magical week, Hollywood. 🫶🏻 We will be counting down the days until next year!

  • Things I’ve learned from breaking my tailbone >>

1. It is possible to wear only 4 outfits in 2 weeks.

2. God is more concerned with developing character and deep roots than about our physical comfort.

3. My children don’t love to see me bedridden, but they love that they have been able to eat nuggets, pizza, and fries for 2 weeks.

4. When you can’t sleep because of pain or wild imagination that is not helpful, put on worship music.

5. A good prayer to pray, “Show me the depth of my need for You and shatter my self-sufficiency. Change my mindset so that prayer becomes my first response in every situation. May I seek You in all things. Help me to put all my hope in You...”

6. Hold on to a sense of humor. Or find someone to get you laughing. Even though it will hurt to laugh. You need to not take it all so seriously!

7. God’s people are so precious. People showed up on our doorstep with lasagnas, flowers, sandwiches, Uber Eats gift cards, and one dear soul even sent her cleaning ladies to our house to undo the damage of mama being down for days on end. Whenever I was tempted to despair, someone would text or bring by some freshly cut fruit. The message here is don’t ask, just do > because every act of kindness reminded me of Who is in charge.

8. When hard times come, lean into gratitude instead of fussiness and resistance. Thank your husband for carrying everything while you’re down, thank your community for carrying you to Jesus, thank the Lord for being present in all circumstances with a plan for your good and His glory. There is a reason God tells us in the Bible to do all things without complaining or disputing-so that you. will. shine. It’s not easy, but the reward is GREAT. I want the world to see Jesus shining in me in my adversity. Doesn’t mean you can’t cry and admit that what you are facing is so very difficult, but this can be done with a surrendered heart. This is the new assignment. Accept it, receive it as something that is from a loving Father. Look for the provisions along the way. You will go from strength to strength. Move forward with hope. He’s got you!
