What Makes Chuck E. Cheese Allen a Great Arcade for Young Kids?

Every game on a Chuck E. Cheese floor is picked for kids, with ages 3 to 8 at the center. This store has 49 different games and rides on 68 machines, so there is something for every age in the family.

Little ones get kiddie rides and easy games of their own. Older kids get skill, sports and video games where they can chase a high score. The whole family can play together, then trade Tickets for prizes at the end.

Chuck E. Cheese is the only major family entertainment center brand built from the ground up for kids ages 2 to 12, and it has been making kids the star of the show for nearly 50 years.

Three Ways to Play

Games Made for Little Ones

Toddlers and preschoolers are not an afterthought here. Every store has games and kid-sized rides made for the youngest players: easy to start, quick to win and sized for small hands. At this store, look for Camper Van, Chameleon Paradize, Horse Carousel and Snow Day. There are 6 kiddie rides on the floor.

There is no minimum age to visit, and grown-ups stay with their little ones while they play.

Games the Whole Family Plays Together

Some games are built so parents and grandparents are not watching from the sidelines. Side-by-side racing, sports and ticket games put the whole family in the game, and a close second place still wins Tickets.

Many stores also have a light-up dance floor that gets everyone moving with Chuck E. It is the moment the family stops being spectators and becomes the show.

Where Kids Play for Themselves

Every kid needs the moment they play a game on their own, earn their own Tickets and pick their own prize. Roll-and-score lanes, basketball hoops, skill games and big-ticket games are where a 6-year-old proves something to themselves.

Some games here are hard to find anywhere else. Look for Skee-Ball Glow, which only a few Chuck E. Cheese stores have.

The Prize Counter: Where Tickets Become Trophies

Every Ticket your child wins goes straight onto their Play Pass^® card. There are no paper tickets to count or lose in the parking lot, and the Tickets stay on the card for the next visit, so a kid who comes back every Saturday is saving up for something real.

At the prize counter, kids trade Tickets for toys, candy, plush and bigger prizes. Picking the prize is the moment the whole visit turns into something they remember.

With a birthday party package, the birthday star gets 30 seconds in the Ticket Blaster, grabbing as many flying ticket vouchers as they can. It has been a Chuck E. Cheese tradition for decades.

Three Ways to Load Up and Play

Play Points
Load Play Points onto a reusable Play Pass card, which costs $2. Most games cost 1 Play Point, and points you buy never expire, so whatever is left carries over to the next visit. Best for younger kids and relaxed visits with breaks.
All You Can Play
Unlimited games for a set time, from 30 to 120 minutes. Each player needs their own card, and you can pause the timer once per visit for a pizza break. Best for kids who want to play nonstop. Prices vary by store.
Fun Pass® Membership
Bronze is $7.99 a month at this store. Members get Play Points every day they visit: 40 on Bronze, 100 on Silver and 250 on Gold, plus 20% to 50% off food, drinks and Adventure Zone admission. Daily points reset at midnight.
