Looking for fun things to do with kids in Pensacola? There’s a brand-new indoor playground in town that your little ones will absolutely love!
As a parent of toddlers, I know how few indoor play options we’ve had in Northwest Florida. We used to drive all the way to Montgomery just to give the kids a chance to explore an indoor playground—until now. Thankfully, Kids Empire has opened at Cordova Mall, and it’s already becoming a favorite for Pensacola families looking for a place where kids can climb, laugh, and let their imaginations run wild. π
Kids Empire is a huge indoor playground filled with exciting features like floor-to-ceiling climbing structures, twisting tunnels, fast slides, ball pits, and even a ride-on track. There’s a separate toddler zone with low slides and soft play areas perfect for the littlest adventurers. No matter the weather, it’s the perfect place for kids to burn energy and have a blast.

There’s also plenty to love for parents. Adults can enjoy comfy seating areas with good visibility throughout the play space—making it easier to relax while still keeping an eye on your kids. The venue also offers birthday party packages and group event options, which make it a great place to host your next celebration. π
