Welcome to Kids Empire — a kids indoor playground in Phoenix Laveen made for big energy and easy family days. Located in South Mountain near Desert Sky Mall, our park gives kids ages 1–12 unlimited, all-day indoor play.

All-Day Indoor Fun at Our Laveen Playground
Kids love our multi-level maze with winding slides, jungle gym passages, ball pits, and obstacle-style paths that keep them moving and giggling. The dance floor adds extra “play big” energy for kids who love to show off their moves.
For younger guests, our toddler zone features mini slides, soft construction blocks, and a small ball pit—perfect for ages 1–3.
