My review of American Adventures and Foam Factory in Atlanta
Last week my family and I went to American Adventures Family Fun Park. The weather was really HOT. The parking lot was extremely full. Many people were taking advantage of the hot day to get wet in the water park next door. Six Flags White Water also seems to be a lot of fun, but it was much more expensive.
American Adventures is like a little carnival with slightly better attractions. Its main idea is to attract younger children who would not normally be able to ride the attractions of its largest park, Six Flags.
Your brief description of your website:

Play on one of our NEW pool tables!
FREE PARKING AND FREE ADMISSION American Adventures no longer charges admission. You simply pay for the attractions you want.
Some of the attractions were closed which was unfortunate but this was probably due to a lack of employees working. I would notice that they would close a trip and then reopen it. What I love is that Lines was REALLY short. Most of the time we got on right after the ride was over. These games are perfect for children ages 2-9.
FOAM FACTORY
It’s basically a big indoor playground that you’d see at ChuckECheese or McDonalds. Children climb ropes, nets, ladders and throw small foam balls at people. It was fine, but looks like it could use a little fixing up. Some parts were broken or just plain old.
How to plan and some TIPS
It was my wife, myself and our two and a half year old son going to the park. I spent roughly around $20 total for about 3 hours of entertainment. This is how I did it:
* Sign up for the coupon on their website to get $3 off and print it out
* You can take water and snacks with you. Of course, it is much more expensive
* Parking is $10 but keep your receipt
* At the ticket sale Buy Unlimited for a Child and give the receipt and the parking coupon
* No need to purchase for adults with a paying child
* All this for less than $20. It’s a cheap outing for the family.
Overall, I give this place a B. I had to travel about 30 miles to get there, so it’s not like I’m ready to go back anytime. Check it out if you’re in the area and need something to do.
