Building the Future of Play
Created for kids. Powered by parents.
Backed by community.
Project Description
Wonder Play Cafe is a space created for families to connect, play, and grow together. Our mission is to support family wellness and build a stronger community through intentional play and meaningful experiences.
As parents, we realized how hard it can be to find a space that feels both safe and supportive. Many families feel isolated or overwhelmed in the early stages of parenting. Wonder Play Cafe was created to fill that gap by offering a space that brings people together.
The Las Vegas area is home to thousands of young families looking for more than just open play. Our concept meets this demand with enriching experiences for both kids and caregivers. With a growing population in Summerlin and surrounding areas, the opportunity to create lasting impact is huge.
Wonder Play Cafe is designed to be a welcoming indoor playroom and studio that features purposeful play zones, wellness and movement classes, birthday celebrations, and special programs that focus on connection. We are also building partnerships with local vendors and small businesses to create a vibrant, family-friendly destination.
We are currently raising funds to help complete the buildout of our first location. Your support will go toward play equipment, safety installations, event furnishings, and launching programs that bring our space to life.
Our team is made up of hospitality professionals, creatives, and passionate parents who believe in community care. Danielle Pexa leads the vision as founder and CEO, with Letto Sterling supporting as Head of Business Development. We also have local partners contributing to our fitness, food, and creative offerings.
We are so grateful for your support. Thank you for believing in this vision. Every contribution brings us one step closer to opening our doors and welcoming you into the Wonder Play Cafe family.
The Campaign FAQs
What is Wonder Play Cafe?
Wonder Play Cafe is a beautifully designed indoor playroom and gathering space where children can play and explore while caregivers relax and connect. We aim to create a safe, engaging, and community-focused experience for modern families.
What makes Wonder Play Cafe different from other indoor playgrounds?
We’ve created a space with intention. Our design is warm, modern, and calming — not loud or overstimulating. The play area encourages social and emotional development while offering comfort and convenience for caregivers. From quality food vendors to family wellness programming, Wonder Play Cafe is built with the whole family in mind.
Where will Wonder Play Cafe be located?
We’re opening in Southwest Las Vegas and welcome families from all across the city. Whether you're a local or visiting from out of town, Wonder Play Cafe is designed to be a go-to destination for meaningful play and connection.
Is this a traditional investment opportunity?
No. This is a crowdfunding rewards campaign. Supporters are not purchasing equity or sharing in future profits. Instead, you are supporting the build of Wonder Play Cafe in exchange for exclusive play passes, party credits, branded merchandise, and permanent name recognition in our space.
What are the reward tiers?
We’ve created five support levels to make it easy for anyone to contribute. Each tier offers increasing rewards based on your level of contribution, starting at just 50 dollars. These rewards include play passes, sticker packs, water bottles, party credits, and recognition on our Wonder Wall in-venue and online.
How will my contribution be used?
Your support helps fund construction, design, play structures, furniture, technology, and early staffing. Every dollar raised brings us one step closer to opening our doors and serving families throughout Las Vegas.
When will I receive my rewards?
Rewards will be distributed once Wonder Play Cafe officially opens. We will keep you updated on progress and notify you when rewards are ready for pickup or delivery.
What if Wonder Play Cafe experiences delays or changes?
We are committed to transparency and communication. If timelines shift or unexpected challenges arise, we will update all supporters and do our best to honor your rewards as planned.
Can I use my rewards for someone else?
Absolutely. Play passes, party credits, and merchandise can be gifted or transferred to friends or family.
Is my contribution refundable?
All contributions are final. Because these funds are used to directly support the creation of Wonder Play Cafe, we are unable to offer refunds. That said, your rewards will remain valid for future use once we open.
Every movement starts with community.
