9/1/21 update: We have incorporated CDC protocols into our regular cleaning process. These steps are in addition to our regular venue sanitizing program. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we strive to continue to keep our beautiful venue healthy and safe for all:
Each Party Package includes 15 kids (ages 1-17) and 15 adults. Additional guests are welcome for an additional fee per guest.
Please contact Scooter’s Jungle of Valencia for maximum occupancy.
Call Scooter’s Jungle Valencia at (661) 877 – 4400 for current discounts.
Unfortunately, we cannot offer a discount as the party price is based on the use of the arena and dining room. If you have a much smaller party, consider attending a Family Fun Event and renting our dining room for private dining during the event.
Even if some adults choose not to play, they are still guests that get our attention in both the arena and dining room.
Typically, one staff will assist in the play arena and one in the dining room, plus one facility supervisor will oversee your event and check in with you. Jr! arena events have 1 staff member with the entire event. Please contact our event planners 2-3 days ahead if you expect over 50 guests to attend your event, staffing may need to be adjusted for your larger event. Note: Extra staffing charges may apply if your actual group size is smaller than estimated for your large event.
Scooter’s Jungle offers fun jungle themed or generic birthday electronic invites and thank-you notes that you can email to your guest. You can also opt to print them at home and hand out.

All of our pizza products and ingredients are 100% MSG free! Scooter’s Jungle pizza crust does contain less than 2% hydrogenated soybean oil, so there are trans-fats in it, but very little

If you decide to open gifts, our staff will guide the birthday child to the throne and present gifts for opening. We will request a parent volunteer (not the birthday parent(s)) to write the type of gift next to the invited guests name on our check-in list so you enjoy and stay focused on all your guests. After all gifts have been opened and acknowledged, we will bag the gifts for transporting home. Please note: we do not open cards during gift opening due to time constraints.
Yes, even though we are not a traditional restaurant, our kitchen and facility is inspected and approved by the local county Department of Health for full “food handling” license.
For safety, any guest wearing a cast, (splint/sling/brace, etc.), is welcome to attend the event and use the floor games, but will not be permitted to participate on the inflatables.
For insurance purposes, every guest who enters our play arenas, even grandparents and babies who may not play, must have a completed liability waiver. For guests under 18 years of age, the waiver must be completed and signed by a parent/legal guardian. Waivers are available at Scooter’s Jungle locations or online.
Yes, socks and masks are required to play on the inflatables for hygiene purposes. For those who forget, socks and masks are available for a minimal fee.
Yes, most of our custom-built inflatables and attractions are “adult-size”, so we encourage adult play (as long as they are within the manufacturers guidelines for height and weight-which are posted within each facility).
Scooter’s Jungle features custom-made, enormous inflatables and permanent attractions that are right-sized for kids and parents, from ages 1 to 101. We offer age-appropriate play arenas that enable kids and parents to play together for an active, fun-filled memorable experience. And we’re home to the tallest and longest indoor inflatable slides, the original indoor zip lines, pretend rooms, and indoor obstacle courses—just to name a few.
Our fun and friendly trained staff will provide supervision in the inflatable play areas; however, supervision is a shared responsibility between the adult guests and our staff.
Absolutely! Our tropical custom-made inflatables and attractions are designed for high volume, indoor use. Each inflatable is put through rigorous testing before being released to any Scooter’s Jungle location. We anchor each inflatable to the floor and/or wall to provide extra stability. We have a daily/weekly/monthly cleaning schedule that keeps our facilities and equipment clean and fresh. Plus, our inflatables and attractions have a routine inspection plan for any ongoing maintenance needs.
We ask that the event host arrive five minutes before the event start time as listed on reservation agreement. Our supportive staff will help you unload your car, review, get you checked in and confirm your party planner so that you can welcome and enjoy the rest of the party without any worries.
We suggest guests arrive at the beginning of the scheduled party time. We start with a 15 minute ‘meet and greet’ period to: a) Complete waivers, b) Check-in gifts, c) Hello time for guests, d) Provide safety speech.
Approximately 10 minutes into your meet and greet time, we start the safety speech provided half of the expected kids have arrived. Any guest(s) who arrive after safety speech has started, will be checked in and provided an individual safety review.
Absolutely not! At Scooter’s Jungle we checkin all gifts for the birthday child. We tag, document and note the invited guest’s name, and keep the gifts safe.
The party host is required to stay during the party. We encourage all adults to stay and enjoy the inflatables. If you cannot stay, please designate an adult in your party to assume responsibility. We recommend at least five (5) adults stay at your event. Note: Teen events (ages 15 and higher) need at least a 10/1 adult ratio, adults must be 25 and older to count as the supervisors at a teen event.
Scooter’s Jungle amazing staff with help supervise and encourage both adults and kids to play. Our staff will give the birthday child a choice of 2-3 games to play, such as hide and seek, relay races or ‘climb the slide’ games. Since safety is a shared responsibility, we recommend that all adults help supervise and report concerns.
We are unable to extend your playtime in the arena unless you have the first or last scheduled party of the day. Extensions would need to be planned during the booking process and an additional fee would apply.
We allow water bottles in the arenas during playtime. Not only can juice, sodas, and snacks damage the inflatables, bouncing kids don’t mix well with sweet drinks and full stomachs! (Note: The Jr! Arena does accommodate for snacks to be available from the beginning of your event.)
Ten minutes before your party moves into the dining room our friendly staff will gather all the kids for a photo opportunity with the birthday child wearing his/her crown or tiara.
Scooter’s Jungle offers private birthday parties for kids, although our adults have a blast too and can choose to celebrate their party with us also!
Private Party Bookings start with all the ‘Base’ features Including:
Yes, our red carpet service handles the details from start to finish, enabling you to enjoy a worry-free party!
Some events are REALLY Large! For those occasions, we do offer a “Plus Party” option that may be a better fit for you. Our ‘Plus Parties’ have minimum spending requirements for both food and guest fees. Please discuss with your location’s customer service for more information. If your group qualifies to book 2 arenas as a ‘Plus Party’, you will be required to pay the rental fee for each arena. Your base head counts allowed will be the same as for one party, you will not get double the child/adult head counts included in the price. Additionally, if min. spends are not met during the event, the difference will be applied to your final bill at checkout.
Yes. Our Open Play events are not designed for drop offs; a parent or guardian must stay with the child(ren). Adults are welcomed to bring small groups of kids, as long as they are responsible for each minor during the entire open play time. This gives other parents a break and conserves parking!
Scooter’s Jungle Open Play provides you with an opportunity to play in our arenas during designated ‘Public’ Open Play events:
Leftover pizza (there usually isn’t any) will be placed in takeout boxes and all other left over food items will be wrapped, packed and loaded onto a cart.
We’ll pack up everything nice and neat and have it ready on a cart for us to take to your car after you have checked out.
No need or worries, that’s our job! Once you have said good bye to your last guest and you’re all paid up we’ll help you load gifts, leftovers, and supplies into your car. We clean up the mess so you can go home, put up your feet and enjoy the smiles on your child’s face.
Gratuities for our staff are always welcome and appreciated. All service industries work for tips and our staff is no exception. If you feel our staff has done an awesome job please show it; if not, please tell us.
