Snow in Henderson? 110 degreeze in the shade of Boulder City?

It's always the perfect tempature INDOORS at Uptown Jungle, no matter extreame weather we face!

By Gayle Helton- Henderson & Boulder City Macaroni Kid Publisher February 23, 2023

When the weather outside is frightful, the indoors are so delightful!

YES!  It's SNOWING! It's SNOWING! If your kiddos are anything like mine, the snow is the ultimate lure to get outside!  Catching snowflakes on the tongue, spinning around like the cast from the Sound of Music, flurries are the most welcoming outdoor ploy nature has over our desert brood.  The kids run and try and dodge the falling flakes for a good 7 minutes. And then it is over. The snow is still falling, but the chill has set in. These sun-baked children that thrive in 110 degrees for months, decide that is enough snow. But they are pumped. The snow is falling. It is SNOWING in Vegas! They can never go back to YouTube Videos on the couch for the afternoon.  What now?


The same is true for in the very near future, nearer than we may like to believe, it is going to be HOT! It seems like a distant memory doesn't it; the one-arm suntan from driving, never walking outside barefoot, going to the playground at 8 pm? But it will be here before you know it. This year there is not a single reason to stay cooped up in the house! It's always the perfect temperature at Uptown Jungle!

Uptown Jungle is always the perfect temperature! There is no need for jackets and gloves when you go to Uptown Jungle! There is no chasing the kids around to reapply sunscreen when you choose the comfort of the indoors at Uptown Jungle either.  When they conquer the Volcano slide... climbing up is the best part.  They will use the grip socks to scale the giant walls and reach the peak!  Be careful, one wrong move and its slippery slide to the bottom!

Uptown Jungle has a Mega Play Structure, Obstacle Course, and a Ninja Course.  Can the day get any better?  We love to meet up with friends at Uptown Jungle. It is a great time for parents to hang out in the parent's lounge. With couches, you sink into, two TVs, and a small bar-height table, we have been known to get together and play cards, escape rooms in a box, or just stalk each other's social media! 





The kids will climb on 5 different walls!  They can even choose to race a friend or themselves. Speaking of friends, my kids always make new friends at Uptown Jungle!  There has never been a time when one of my kiddos was lonely or bored.  They will even swing by the parent's room (Ok, it's a lounge!) to proudly introduce me to a new bestie! Look at them, being productive! and look at them escaping the elements!
