FAQs: Planning Your Birthday Party at Kids Empire West Des Moines
I'm bringing my child for their birthday but don't want to book a package. Can I still bring a cake?
No — outside food or drinks (including cake) aren’t allowed with general admission. Cakes and cupcakes are welcome only with a booked birthday package, which is the best way to celebrate at Kids Empire.
I'm invited to a birthday party. Is there anything I should do before arriving?
Yes — sign the waiver online before you arrive. Every guest needs a waiver, and no child can enter without one signed by a parent or guardian; also bring socks for everyone in your group, since socks are required in the play area.
Where is Kids Empire Jordan Creek located and is there parking available?
Kids Empire Jordan Creek is in the Jordan Creek Town Center area (zip code 50266), about 15–20 minutes west of Downtown Des Moines. It’s easy to reach via I-35, I-80, or I-235 using the Mills Civic Pkwy exit, near roads like Mills Civic Parkway and Jordan Creek Pkwy. Parking is simple with extensive free surface parking, covered mall walkways, ADA spots near entrances, and plenty of space for strollers and party groups.
I need to step out for a second. Can I leave my child alone briefly?
No — children must be supervised by an adult at all times. Our reserved party tables sit close to the play structures, making it easy to keep eyes on the kids while they play big.
