This is the main library for Thousand Oaks. It has a wonderful children's are and a large collection of books, music CDs, Movie DVDs, magazines, genealogy center, etc..

Real life escape games. You and a group of friends/coworkers/family members (between 2-8) are put into a room and will have 60 minutes to accomplish your goals and escape! You'll have to work as a team to solve puzzles, find secret clues, all while the clock is counting down! It will feel like you're in a movie!

If you are seeking an epic experience that will get your heart pumping and face smiling, then you must visit Dojoboom! Some confuse it as a simple trampoline park, but they are so wrong. Sure, there is a huge arena filled with trampolines that launch you into the air, some of which that have punching bags hanging above, but it’s the towering jumping platforms, intense dodge ball court, basketball dunking stations, and super tramps that start to set it apart, and that’s only the beginning. There’s also the trapeze bar, giant swing, and zip line that launch you into foam pits, which are right next to the never-ending rock wall and professionally designed Ninja Warrior course, complete with two warped walls. If that wasn’t enough there’s also the frequently redesigned parkour course and jousting battle beams, accompanied by the aerial slicks and giant swinging ring. And just when you thought you conquered it all you look up to see the inflated floor and extra long extended trampolines, where you can practice tricks. This is all complimented by the insanely cool murals covering the walls, making ever attraction an Insta worthy photo spot. This place is the perfect place for any active child (or adult) and will leave every guest ready for a nap by the time they leave. The only drawbacks are the hourly cost, which is pretty expensive and can easily cost over $50 for one hour if you have multiple people jumping, and there are a couple of older staff that will yell at you for the littlest infringement, like being too excited. But, most of the staff are really great! Also, if you go during a weekend it can get VERY crowded, which takes away from some of the enjoyment, so either go early or during the week. Overall, the positives far outweigh the negatives and I always make sure to take friends or family when they come to visit, and I’ve never had a dissatisfied guest. This place is definitely worth saving up for and making family memories that will last for years to come.

Walking through the lovely flowers and plants took away the hustle and bustle of daily life and as my wife would say stop and smell the roses. And also the other blooming plants.
