Together, building a brighter future for our children.

Welcome to Spark!
We’re thrilled to share that we are in the process of growing into our brand-new space! Permitting and construction are currently underway at our future home:
201 2nd Avenue South, in downtown Great Falls!
This move is a huge step forward in our mission to bring even more opportunities for play, learning, and creativity to families in our community.
While we prepare our new location, we know you may have questions—and we’re working behind the scenes to finalize all the exciting details.
Over the next few months, we’ll be rolling out information about memberships, admission prices, party packages, parking options, and much more. We're building something truly special, and we can't wait to share it with you!

We love it here! We opted for a membership and are so glad we did! Our kids ask to come all the time. There is so much for the kids to do and we love getting in on the play. There is a lending library, a little cafe to snag a coffee (and a play one upstairs for your littles to pretend they made it for you 😜). The staff is always so kind and friendly. Highly recommend.

Nice place to let the kids explore and use their imagination. We went there regularly before our kids were school aged and will likely keep going at least once or twice a month as it's a nice indoor area for the kids to play and get out of the summer heat and winter snow.

An awesome place for our toddler to spend a morning. There are so many little stations with different themes which was great for our child to do various imagination type plays. Don't forget the second levels which tons of extra plays. Admissions is good for the entire day with the possibility of reentry. Free parking outside.
