Finding a safe and child friendly play space is difficult for parents in a large metropolitan area. Parks are often not within walking distance, and poor weather conditions can put a damper on outdoor activities. To counter this issue, on December 14, 2025, Sarah Del Rosario opened Little Dimples in Alhambra, giving parents a fun environment for the whole family to enjoy, come rain or shine.
As a clean, bright indoor playground, Little Dimples Alhambra features ballpit, dress-up areas, trampolines, merry-go-round, and other areas for little ones to play, explore, and have fun. Little Dimples offers just as much enjoyment for parents as they do for children. Featuring an in-house cafe and a full menu of small bites, coffee, boba tea beverages, and desserts, parents can lounge at the cafe while their kids have fun in the hands-on play areas.
For Rosario, opening Little Dimples was a testament to remaining faithful to her dreams. Leaving behind a career in a corporate office, Rosario’s passion for her business helped it stand the test of time. After a 14 month shutdown following Covid mandates, Rosario emerged from the intermittence, reopening her Montebello location and successfully expanding to the city of Alhambra. Little Dimples’ grand opening and ribbon cutting was met with enthusiasm from the crowd, as Alhambra Chamber President Maria Gao and Alhambra Councilmember Kathrine Lee congratulated Rosario and her family on their contribution to the city’s local milieu.
For Lee, the addition of a family friendly space addresses a crucial local desire at the heart of Alhambra’s neighborhoods. “Someone talked to me about wanting to make sure that Alhambra becomes a family oriented community,” Lee explained, “and this is one example of how we can bring that into fruition.”
Located at 230 W Main St, Alhambra, CA 91801, Little Dimples welcomes parents and kids seven days a week and is open from 10AM to 7:30PM.
