From the reviews
We were in Boulder for spring break and wanted a fun indoor activity to do with our 7 year old girls. They had never been rock climbing before. From the moment we entered, Stef made us feel welcome and put the girls nerves at ease. The gym is awesome and perfect for kids to learn and advance.
I have an eight-year-old, a six-year-old, and a four-year-old. I came here with them, and the staff are really great with the kids and teaching them the rules and letting them know where they can go and making sure I know exactly what to do.
Great staff to make a kids climbing experience fantastic. The rooms and areas make social distancing easy! Nice to not feel pressure or rushed! 12/2020: Enhanced Covid19 precautions. More frequent yet smaller classes. More thorough screening and checks at entry. More divided spaces to lessen possible transmission!
Had the best experience! My daughter celebrated her 6th birthday here. We invited 20 kids and I believe 16 showed. The staff was wonderful. They kept the kids engaged and entertained. I can't say enough about how great the staff was with the kids. Highly recommend this place!
Birthday parties at ABC Kids Climbing
ABC Kids Climbing hosts birthday parties — confirmed on their own site. Climbing parties come with staff who handle the harnesses and belaying, so parents can mostly watch. One thing that's different here: every guest needs a signed waiver — send the gym's waiver link to the other parents when you send invites, or check-in day gets slow. Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular gyms.
Kids classes & camps at ABC Kids Climbing
Reviews and the gym's own info mention kids programs at ABC Kids Climbing — climbing classes, school-break camps, or a youth team where kids learn technique from coaches instead of just scrambling around. Program schedules and age groups change each season, so check the current lineup before you plan around one.
