    Toilets were unisex. just a bunch of stalls in a row. I did see another toilet area roped off so maybe they'll split later. They let you in by groups to the first stop which is a place where they have a safety video. You know, basic stuff like don't eat the slime. Throughout the place they have slime stations like everywhere with different types of slime. So keep walking if it's packed up front. There are posters that tell you the attributes of each slime too. The first stop is a slime wall. It doesn't stick if you throw it. Next stop there's a Kenetic sand stop in a cave, with a huge wall video screen too that projects slime people that imitate your moves if you stand in front of the big screen. The next stop is a slingshot where you can shoot a wad of slime at your friends. They stand behind glass while you shoot them. spit wad. For the DIY station, I suggest picking one of the expert slimes. Why?They're colorless and odorless so you get 2 coins to select both the color you want and the odor you want from the vending machines on the wall (otherwise you may just get 1 coin for scent and they'll give you a pre-colored slime). Just put your slime in the cubby hole and then your coin in the slot above it, and turn the knob all the way to the right. Some water looking stuff drips out for the scent. And some powder drops out for the color. Then you can mix it at tables. You also get to pick 3 plastic toys to put into your slime. They have 120 choices to select from. Pretty cool. Next to the mixing tables They also have a slime waterfall where you can get slimed. just like Nickelodeon. A staffer said you can buy tickets at the waterfall station if you decide you want to give it a try. But It was free for us today. They put two ponchos and two shower caps on you to make sure you don't get wet. The slime pours on you 3 times. It felt like taking the water bucket challenge with a rain poncho on. My kid aged 9 loved it. There is a water fountain and towels to wipe off afterwards. Suggest wearing shorts or pants you can roll up if you want to try this. The half dozen or so slime stations after the waterfall have texture which was fool. And also there was ASMR playing there too. But it was hard to hear because of all the people there that day though. They have sensory stations after that where they give you blindfolds and you can guess what's in the cubby holes. Also there were a few viewing ports to the kitchen where slime is made. But it looked like just storage to me. At the end there is a slime wading pool and some pools filled with plushies. They also have some contraption kids and crawl under it they got a lot of energy to burn still. They ask you to wipe your feet with wet wipes before entering. Actually I notice they had wet wipe stations throughout the entire place. And they had asked us to wash before entering the establishment. That's good cuz I'm thinking all that gooey slime would probably pick up stuff like Covid easily. We spent about an hour total. At the end I asked my kid how many stars they would give it. My kid is picky. But she said definitely 5 stars. She even asked to come back again. I asked her if it was better than the color factory, which she also likes, and she said yes. For me, well I give it 5 stars too because she had a good time. And if she has a good time I have a good time. If I went myself, it'd be maybe 3 stars depending on the price. The gift store at the end has … more slime for sale. Didn’t see anything to eat anywhere. But there is a candy store and boa ba next door if you need a treat after. Kid got slime on their shirt all over from playing with it on the ride home. But amazingly it washed right out just using dishwasher soap scrubbing with the abrasive side of a regular sponge.

    We attended their soft opening on Friday, December 8th and scored complimentary tickets! This place was actually better (and bigger) than I expected it to be. Also a fun surprise I actually used to work with Karen Robinovitz (one of the co-founders of SlooMoo) in NYC when I worked at Digital Brand Architects. She was there which was a fun surprise. When you enter you are ushered into a room to watch a short video on what to expect and I thought it was weird that one part of the video advised kids "to not eat the slime" (say what?) However once we entered the area of the slime I immediately understood why....the slime smelled SOOO GOOD! lol I know it's weird but the smell hit me right away. I thought it was pretty cool that each slime had its own unique texture AND smell! Some smelled like cherry, some smelled like cotton candy, some smelled like chocolate. It was just crazy but pretty cool. Also to note EVERYONE WHO WORKED THERE WAS SUPER NICE! And I do mean every single person we encountered was super friendly to my kids and I. The people who worked there were energetic and made the experience that much more fun for the kids. At the end you get to make your own slime. You can pick your own smell, color of slime. There's also a section where they blindfolded my kids and let them touch different things (they had to stick their hands in different holes) . They really enjoyed that part! My son is autistic so he highly enjoyed himself. He thought it was "awesome"! And it's hard to impress him. lol I knocked a star off because of the admission price. Personally I think $40 per person is quite high. If I would've paid for myself and my two kids that would've been about $120 (plus taxes and fees) and honestly it's not worth the price point. Also we went the day before the grand opening so there was literally no one there besides one other family. So I can't imagine on a weekend where it's crowded and a ton of kids all playing in the same slime. I don't know how often they change the slime (perhaps they do at the end of each day) Good news is they do make you wash your hands beforehand and there is another station to wash your hands at the end. I don't know but I am happy my kids got to experience the place all to themselves.

    Drop everything and go take your kids. They are going to absolutely love this place. The staff is so enthusiastic and nice. The favorite part is the slime falling on them. They will love every station and every version of slime there.

    Way overpriced for what you get. 1 hour is what we spent in there and we didn’t rush and that includes a 20 minute wait in line to do the slime sling shot. Each room has the same slimes on display to touch, you can color and scent your own slime, it’s premade. For extra $30 per person you can get covered in ponchos/trash bags to have “slime”, more like a colored water, to be dumped on you. Someone described it as the ice bucket challenge because it’s not slime it’s liquid. Some of the slimes seemed as if they had been overworked and were getting tough, needed to be changed out. Overall, for the price I would have preferred to set up stations and activities at home. Way too over priced for what they’re providing.

    Fun for the entire family! Went with friends and had the BEST time. So many slimes to play with and so much to do. Every ticket gets to make a slime to take home. Spent almost two full hours- space is beautiful and so clean. Handwashing required with wipes all over the place. Staff was super friendly and I loved all the nods to Texas! Even the bathrooms had cowgirl and cowboy signs! Cannot wait to come back!!!

    Pretty cool place. You get to walk around and touch different types of slime. At the end you make your own slime. It loses stars because even with my military discount it was $70 dollars for myself and my son. I feel that was just way to expensive for a hour of your time. We spend a total of one hour and fifteen minutes and saw everything without rushing. If you wanna get slimed that was additional money. I watched people get slimed and you just wear a trash bag and they dump slime on you. Kinda overpriced

    Visited with my parents and family friends who have a 9 year old boy - we all had a blast to say the least! My mom’s slime name is Voonoossoo and I haven’t called her anything but that since. The “slimetenders” were all so sweet and helpful whenever we were confused or needed guidance. There’s so much more than just slime and I can’t wait to bring every kid and adult I know here. One of the best ways to spend an afternoon in Houston.

    We hosted my daughters birthday party at Sloomoo this weekend. I don't know where to start... from the time we walked in, until we left - the team welcomed us with CARE and FUN! I am so happy with my decision to host my daughter's party at Sloomoo. The adults and kids enjoyed it and we weren't rushed through. I also want to give a special shoutout to ALVIN (who we crowned the King of Fun). Stellar customer service!!!

    10/10 From Alvin to all of the team members they were nothing short of amazing. The immersive experience is sooo much fun for all ages!!! However, the true stars of the show are the staff members. They were so helpful and friendly throughout the whole experience!!! Special shout out to Gianna & Too Too!! 😊

    My kids and I loved our Sloomoo experience this weekend!! We had a blast roaming through the different spaces, where you can shoot slime, make slime, get slimed, and play with TONS of different textures, colors, and scents of slime. Our favorite was the sloosnap. We bought some of that at the store and have been playing with it ever since. Such a cool idea -- I love how much fun it was for all of us -- great people and vibe too. I'm so glad we tried it. Thanks, Sloomoo Institute!!

    Great place to have fun with the kiddos 🤩🤩🤩 I purchased the standard experience (not the enhanced) the only difference is that they pour over you very liquid slime. Paid $97 for 2 tickets, 1 adult 1 kid. Have fun!!!

    5 stars if you like slime. I'm not a huge fan, but went for an event. Place is clean and has several activities. If you're kids are into slime, take them. They have stuff for the adults as well.
