Psst…. They were doing them in the 70s too….I was less an 7 not sure which yr but while playing with the parachute in elementary school I went to pull down and slammed my head onto the concrete…I think it was the bus lanes or something. The things that looked like flipped over tables in the first couple of rooms were actually little beds for naps! Y’all totes could use that as a gym… cheaper!
Hey if You read this comment on this old video I can say you could take those toys and get them fixed up and give them to kids in orphanages so they have some toys to play.
Ahhhh. The good Ole days. Growing up in the 90s and early 2000s. The parachute game, being at the rec center. I miss those days. Thank you so much for this
@@netkitten oh that could be I mean people can be allergic to anything and when it said “no grape juice for karter” he may be allergic but that might not have anything to do with allergies it could be that he was probably behaving badly!
Man! I know everyone is talking about the parachute being nostalgic, but I'm over here about to cry over the abandoned daycare rooms with all the toys, etc. My kids are a junior and senior and I'm seeing some familiar things from when they were little😪
This one is close to my heart. I was an early childhood educator here in Atlantic Canada, took the college course between 2009 to 2011 and worked in it for one year, and burned out. Curriculum planning got the better of me. My favourite age to work with was infants. I'm in phone tech support for an American insurance company and couldn't have kids of my own. This one doesn't look much different than ours.
We played games with that type of parachute in gym class when I was in elementary school in the late 1980s and early 1990s. I preferred that sort of gym activity over organized team sports type of activities. I’ve always been healthy, active, and fit, but I never liked playing in organized team sports. I also hated the dreaded Presidential Fitness Test. The best part of being an adult is not being forcibly subjected to things like team sports or fitness tests. This building looks like it was an old school that was converted into being a combination of a pre-school and community fitness center for adults and perhaps older children and teens as that fitness center didn’t look geared towards children. It’s a shame that the building caught on fire.
To Karter, I'm sorry you never got any grape juice. I am also very sorry for you that your school burnt down. I hope you are living a good life and go out and get some grape juice. 😁
Oh absolutely remember that parachute and gym class in the 90s oh man how I miss those days carefree and innocent I'll be 37 next month and it really brings me back ❤️❤️❤️
I just have to say I'm so glad I found your channel!! I think it's really cool that you go and explore all these buildings and share it with the world just like exploring with Josh, it would be cool if you two did a Collab
I LOVE PLACE'S LIKE THIS, I OFTEN THINK TO MYSELF, IF I WAS HOMELESS, I WOULD MOVE IN. KEEP A LOW PROFILE AND USE WHAT I CAN, CLEAN THE PLACE UP. SET ME UP SOMEWHERE I FEEL IS SAFE. HELL YEAH GOOD VIDEO BRO.'' 🙋♂✌🎈
Growing up in the 90s and 2000s and playing the parachute game and being in the rec room just brings back so many memories, I love your videos so much and I wish I could meet you someday
I found another video on a different channel from maybe around a year before this was posted? I’m not sure. Anyway, it’s actually the exact same place as this, but in that video the dolls were all on chairs in a circle (the video was a short)
Excellent Explore+ Yes, an electric fire is serious, and the whole Center probably needed rewiring, etc. Nice building's, too. A Fun watch > I would have tried-out those weight machine's, as well ;-) Merry Christmas* .. and see You next year ~
the colourful parachute was the best part about primary school😂 especially when a few of us could sit in the middle underneath whilst everyone else held it😁
Love your vibe, and ty for having a female explorer with you! So many abandoned explorers on TH-cam are a big sausage fest. Oh and we had that AMAZING parachute group toy in my 1st grade class back in 1985 :) So yeah, its got a lot of fans!
Some of the toys look brand new,so glad none of these sick people graffiti all over the beautiful old place❤also everything was left behind because they were leaving in a hurry,there was a fire and that’s why the dolls are burnt.and the floor has ashes and burn marks.also poor karter is never gonna get his grape juice😢
17:37 this daycare is in America i can tell because there is standard exit signs (which appear to be 3rd gen Lithonia 3rd gen lqms) which is crazy th8nking they were bought from Home Depot then installed by a electrician then turned on for the very first time
Super post- apocalyptic feel. It reminds of that scene in The Walking Dead where they go to the abandoned daycare to find supplies. That part always felt really unsettling
THANK'S FOR THIS SAD BUT TO LEARNING VIDEO TO BAD THEY CANT CLEAN IT UP AND REUSE IT AGAIN ,, IT HAS A GYM BALL COURT WOW!! LOTS OF NICE GAMES THERE.. THE DNA KIT SOUNDS GREAT!!
You should bring a generator or power bank to the places you explore, so you can use the electronics at the places you visit, even without electricity.
Ooh such a very interestingly awesome, and intriguingly cool exploration video, I so really loved and enjoyed it. I really love watching abandoned places exploration videos, I get a lot of inspiration for stories from them and building stories around the more mysterious places. I got a lot of inspiration for the liminal spaces/abandoned places story series Mysteriarch Mythos: dark materials of anemoia I’m working on writing. I’m working on creating a dimension for my book and world that I temporarily named ‘the abandoned spaces dimensions. It’s a dimension of abandoned places of all kinds and it’s where urban explorers from all over the virtual internet/dreamscape world come to explore. Great job and well done. Merry Christmas, happy new year and happy holidays 🎄🎁
I remember the *mid* to *late 90's* we used those *colored parachutes* in the *gym class.* We would all be around it and we would put it in the air and than all go under it as there was still air in it and watch it as the air slowly came out of it as it went over our heads, Good times. We did lots of stuff with that *colored parachute.*
I sometimes have vivid dreams of exploring places like this! By the way, if you get any comments from the people who used to spend their time there, please respond! ;-)

Amazing memories from back then
Almost all these things I can remember. Very interesting and cool to this again. The nostalgia is big here.
@@NamasW24Ikr. It’s not even looking with rose tinted glasses, cartoons and children’s media have genuinely become low effort soulless slop
Ik right 😂😂
I hope all these kids and their families are well and living their best life. I also hope Karter finally got some grape juice 😔
He was probably allergic so I hope not
He could have been punished for something tho
I know I'm not sure what happened to Karter for him to not get grape juice.
Ik so sad! Latter probably didn’t get his grape juice because he might have been doing something bad.

As an early 2000's kid, this sent me back to my childhood. The toys, the parachute, the alphabet rugs... those were the good days.
Same
Yea 😢 i remember sitting on a carper like that in my daycare
I feel like I had a past life before I was born in 2010...

Your soft tone and calm demeanor is so great . Thanks for all you do !

Sad to see all these toys and furniture going to waste. Many kids/families would love to have this stuff.
5:43 *legend has it karter never got that grape juice.*
Yeah probably due to his bad behavior!
They had the parachute games back in the 1980's when I was a kid. It was a lot of fun!

I don’t know why but I feel like I’ve been here.
My daycare had caught on fire when I was just four, thankfully I was on vacation the week of.
The Parachute. Really takes me back to my days in Kindergarten.
To Karter, I'm sorry you never got any grape juice. I am also very sorry for you that your school burnt down. I hope you are living a good life and go out and get some grape juice. 😁
even tho i didnt go to this day care, the toys, the wallpaper, colour brings back memories.
Oh absolutely remember that parachute and gym class in the 90s oh man how I miss those days carefree and innocent I'll be 37 next month and it really brings me back ❤️❤️❤️
Hell yea did u ever play like hockey in gym class i went to a Christian school im 33 good old days no social media i had a Nintendo 64
You are bringing me back to my preschool days back in the late 80’s with the parachute
I remember doing the parachute in kindergarten. I love doing the parachute on gym day. That was 1987.
I just have to say I'm so glad I found your channel!! I think it's really cool that you go and explore all these buildings and share it with the world just like exploring with Josh, it would be cool if you two did a Collab
they have in the past. few years ago they both went to an abandoned house together
@@g4ost_1990 neat! I didn't know that, thanks for sharing

Parachute games are so much fun
i did some research, and the complex closed sometime around 2013-2016. The fire didn't happen until 2021.
Oh okay what’s the name of this daycare complex I want to know who was responsible for the fire?
Nostalgia toys parachute etc from 80s. Connect 4 was fun. The toys & gym exercise machines could be saved. Love the video ❤😀👍✌
I remember the parachute thing from the late 70's!
Growing up in the 90s and 2000s and playing the parachute game and being in the rec room just brings back so many memories, I love your videos so much and I wish I could meet you someday
They even had it back in the 80's when I was a kid cuz I remember playing with it too
Great video! Very nostalgic! I grew up in early 2000s
The urbex Olympics was my favourite part of today's video 😂 awesome stuff as always guys 👏
It was the giant Connect Four for me. 🤗😂
More great artistry thx Devin
My kid loved the parachute game at Gymboree in the mid 2000’s😊
No grape juice for Karter! 😂😂😂
Can you imagine being in there in the dark and alone then you hear an echoey voice coming from that room? So scary and creepy! 🫣
Also hearing children's voice 😶
Like the soft music playing at the start
10:18 early 2000’s? We played with that when I was in elementary school in the 1970’s lol. And we just called it a parachute
this brings me back so many childhood and kindergarten memories 😢
We had that parachute when I was in elementary school in the late 80s early 90s too. It was so much fun!
Thank You For All The Videos You Made This Year Man!! Merry Christmas From Northern Ohio!
Hello Northern Ohio I Live In The Northwest In Kenton
I feel hurt for all the kids and families who went here and I hope they are doing okay.😢
Cool explore as always merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to everyone and have a happy new year 2023 🤠
It be 2024 soon
Good explore, kinda weird those burned dolls weren't in a spot close to the actual fire though. Merry Christmas Devin and friend's Thanks

The legends says now Karter it's a supervillain because they never give em grape juice!
The best villain backstory
I hope karter got his grape juice 🥺
Maybe he started the fire
Looks like Lotso the big teddy bear ABANDONED Sunnyside Day Care in Toy Story 3!
I hope Karter got some grape juice 🧃
He deserves it
Same and ever since the fire happened at this daycare karter might be dead or alive!
I remember the parachute game! So much fun. I hope everyone made it out of the fire unharmed. ♥️
The parachute i did in the 1960s but mine was a real military one
Definitely not missing this one! Alarm is set! lol
They say that karter still hasn't got his grape juice 😕
Yeah and since the fire happened along time ago karter could’ve still gotten the grape juice before the incident happened!
That was my favorite day care 😢
Great video! That is really freaky with the burned faces on the dolls, WTH! These kids are all teenagers now somewhere nearby.
Love your vibe, and ty for having a female explorer with you! So many abandoned explorers on TH-cam are a big sausage fest. Oh and we had that AMAZING parachute group toy in my 1st grade class back in 1985 :) So yeah, its got a lot of fans!
I would of been so tempted to take some plates, squat rack etc. home that is a lot of money left behind lol
Imagine Karter didn’t get his grape juice today
**plays “The Daycare Theme” from Five Nights At Freddy’s: Security Breach**
“I just killed a spider :(“
“That’s not part of the game 😒”
I don't understand how all of that can be just left to decay. it's sad and wasteful
The small gym in the thumbnail looks just like the small gym at Upper Perkiomen High School
Some of the toys look brand new,so glad none of these sick people graffiti all over the beautiful old place❤also everything was left behind because they were leaving in a hurry,there was a fire and that’s why the dolls are burnt.and the floor has ashes and burn marks.also poor karter is never gonna get his grape juice😢
When I was in Kindergarten & 1st grade we played with that that's called a parachute you can play a lot of fun games with it
17:37 this daycare is in America i can tell because there is standard exit signs (which appear to be 3rd gen Lithonia 3rd gen lqms) which is crazy th8nking they were bought from Home Depot then installed by a electrician then turned on for the very first time
I need some of those padded walls in my home for those "special" days!
I hope the 😢families are doing alright
Awesome video thanks
Super post- apocalyptic feel. It reminds of that scene in The Walking Dead where they go to the abandoned daycare to find supplies. That part always felt really unsettling
5:43 WHAT DID KARTER DO??? 😭
THANK'S FOR THIS SAD BUT TO LEARNING VIDEO TO BAD THEY CANT CLEAN IT UP AND REUSE IT AGAIN ,, IT HAS A GYM BALL COURT WOW!! LOTS OF NICE GAMES THERE.. THE DNA KIT SOUNDS GREAT!!
You should bring a generator or power bank to the places you explore, so you can use the electronics at the places you visit, even without electricity.
Sad seeing the daycare!😢
I see alot of stuff that if it is not ruined could be refurbished!
My parachute childhood 9:53
It might so dumb but I always wondered why in abandoned places like schools or daycares leave all the stuff left behind sometimes
In this case it's an electrical fire.
@@jennyknopps1291 that’s crazy I wouldn’t blame them thanks for letting me know
Most contents inside are caked with a black layer of dust. You could wash most things off. But most is destroyed
@@DarkExploration gotcha 👍
I have a question if the place caught on fire how would everything be flipped over
I wonder if Karter's been bad, or does grape juice give him a bad case of the blowouts? 🤔
5:43
Thanks Devin! 👍👍👍👍
I’m wondering the same lol
As someone who works with young children, it's most likely an allergy posting. Never seen one so aggressive though 😂
Ooh such a very interestingly awesome, and intriguingly cool exploration video, I so really loved and enjoyed it.

Creeeeeeepy! Was waiting for a zombie child to run out!! 😅.
😂 No grape juice for Karter! Oh man..
i work in a daycare ,this is so sad
The gym part was crazy to me because I work in a gym and the equipment there looks about the same, 10 years later. Such a waste of good stuff
*15:00** lol*
That parachute yes
7:21 I always wanted this but I never got it :(
How did you get inside the door looks chained shut
I remember the *mid* to *late 90's* we used those *colored parachutes* in the *gym class.* We would all be around it and we would put it in the air and than all go under it as there was still air in it and watch it as the air slowly came out of it as it went over our heads, Good times. We did lots of stuff with that *colored parachute.*
Give karter his grape juice back
I hope Karter got his grape juice
I miss these times.
That is sad that all that exercising equipment got left behind that could have been donated . crazy
I just heard kids voices as you talking! I think you have some EVP!
Imagine going into a creepy place and then see "You Dick Eater!!" Written on the walls.
I would lose my fear immediately
If this place hasn't cought fire they would maybe still be open today
It turns out Karter and his non-existing grape juice are the main characters of this exploration 😅
I hope Karter got there grape juice in the end
I sometimes have vivid dreams of exploring places like this!
By the way, if you get any comments from the people who used to spend their time there, please respond! ;-)
I bet all the kids are grown up
Where is that place
The colorful thing in the gym is called a parachute.
Wish they have redid it
♥️♥️♥️
I Work At A Gym I cant Believe The Equipment I Left To Rot
What’s the name of this place?
