The best climber is the one having the most fun!

BLOCKWORKS KIDS

If you have kids you are well aware it is impossible to stop them from climbing. We were born to climb! Whether you are looking for a casual outing and some adventure as a family or a sport your child can call their own… we know you can find it here.

First Time Kids

Welcome! We’re so glad you are bringing a future climber to Blocworks! We truly feel like climbing is for everyone. All climbers are free to purchase a day pass and rentals with no age limitations. If there is a desire to climb, we’re here for it!

It is important to note that all kids under 15 years of age must be actively supervised by the adult/s who bring them. Yes, we require helicopter parenting while in the gym!

Before your first visit please have waivers filled out for all visitors of the gym, spectators too.

During the first visit we take everyone, including adults, on an orientation of the gym where we will review rules of the gym, get kids sized up in shoes and demonstrate a bouldering fall. After the orientation kids are free to scale the walls with the rest of our community!

Please note: Blocworks is not a playground. This gym was created by climbers, to cultivate more climbers. If you simply need energy burned, we encourage you to support many other local businesses or parks that can better support you and your family. Bouldering has inherent risks and it is extremely important for kids climbing to obey all rules while in the gym.

  • My son says he enjoys team sports but he seems to feel much more comfortable and even happier doing individual sports. We enrolled him a class here. He had an amazing time and can’t wait to go back. If you’re in the same boat with your kiddo in simply trying to get them into something they enjoy, you might take a look.
