focus on the family welcome center印象

After moving to Colorado Springs a few months ago, I have been looking for things to do with our two youngest children while the older two are in school. Many friends recommended this place and so we finally went. The kids had a blast playing in Whit's End and getting snacks at the cafeteria. My mom and I enjoyed the historical information on the company in their small museum, as well as browsing the large gift shop / bookstore. It was a great experience and I will be bringing visitors back with me. We even found out you can have birthday parties for no charge in Whit's End and we scheduled one for our son's 5th birthday coming up this month. Visit if you have time, you will not be disappointed.

The Focus on the Family Welcome Center is free, and kids love it. We go there as much as we can. The birthday rooms are free, but you need to reserve early. Staff are volunteers and always very friendly and helpful.

My kids loved this place when they were younger. It was their favorite place to go each time we visited Colorado Springs. They could have spent all day there. Great slide, fun scavenger searches, and playrooms galore!

Fans of Focus on the Family, in general, and Adventures in Odyssey, in particular, will love this small, family-oriented visitors' center. There are lots of activities for children and a small grill. It can be a fun, and free place, to spend a morning or afternoon. Also, they have a very, very nice Christian gift and bookstore. There are limited tours of Focus on the Family, but you may want to call ahead for the time and for reservations.

This is an outstanding place to take your kids when it's too cold or wet to play outside. The playground in the mall? yuck no thanks! One of the staff at FotF told us they make a point of wiping down the play area to prevent the spread of germs, so for us that's a BIG plus as well.

We stopped in not knowing exactly what to expect. The people here are fantastic, friendly, lovable folks! Get the tour, see the operation, but spend some time just conversing.

Great location for kids birthday parties as there were several going on while we were there, and the kids were having a blast. The entire basement of the Welcome Center has been converted into a themed play area for the kids basically around the Focus on the Family 'Adventures in Odyssey'. There are numerous rooms with 2 being for birthday parties only (J&J Antiques and the Odyssey Fire Station), a pretend radio station where kids can record themselves, a theatre with stage, reading area and puppet theatre, Narnia adventure room, and in the center of it all is the Whit's End Soda Shoppe which has ice cream, soda and hot dogs for sale.The main floor has an extensive bookstore, and a small 'museum' that gives the history of Focus on the Family and their mission. It also has the Welcome Center itself, the G. Harvey Art Gallery and Solid Grounds coffee bar (which was being renovated while we were there so no sadly no coffee).

Stop by and see what Focus has to offer, the price is right and the kids loved the giant slide. The bookstore is well stocked with a large variety of Christian materials.

We were so excited to visit Focus on the Family, being partners of the ministry for over 10 years now. We were so happy to tour the facility and everyone we met was very nice. The time we spent at Whit's end Soda Shoppe was fun as well as the activities and the humongous slide! Learning about the beginning of Adventures in Odyssey was really educational! We love this place and will come back to it again!

I am a local and love to bring my day care children here. We play at Witt's End, ride the slide and enjoy a healthy lunch. You can't miss this if you visit Colorado Springs.
