Too many unknowns.
Where in the country is the playcentre?
How long has it been established? Is it busy or not?
Is the play centre also the folk that run the food area, or do they have their own overheads to dela with alone?
What is the "kids size" - I'm imagining something that can fit on a half size (saucer) plate i.e. not a normal adult's place. Is that accurate?
How much is entry into the soft play area? Do they make it really cheap and then make their profit/running costs on the food, e.g. like at my local independant cinema?
Despite the answers to all of this, there's no such thing as an "acceptable" price for a child's meal - there's just the acceptable price to the current consumer. the "right price" is the one which is no lower than the seller wants, and no higher than the buyer is willing to pay. if you don't meet that point between you, go somewhere else.

you should come to our local indoor play centre. The food is all holistically harvested and organic and is only ever produced by blind virgins (who create their ground breaking meals though touch alone) before it is flown in by lone Albatrosses and served on plates carved by beavers out of responsibly sourced hardwood. They charge a blimming fortune for THAT food... 
I tend to avoid meal times in those places because it generally requires access to a Dictator's bank account to cover the costs
