.....times of refreshing.....

Well, I just got back from KL after been there for almost a week, and finally I can update my blog. Oh, some confession here,  I did brought my notebook there but I prefer not to touch it and get away from my normal routines and wind down. It's not really a grand trip but more of letting my wifey to have some catching up with her siblings, as well as bringing the kids to Kidzania which they missed it last year. As for me, it's actually kinda boring but I takes this opportunity to relax and recuperate, especially my injured feet. I also read a lot!

The kids were back to Kidzania and I realised they change the two sessions previously to one long session. As usual, we were late and only spend about 4-5 hours there, which to me, is good enough. To parents, it's always a tiring experience there as we gotta wait and lookout for the kids. Anyway, my eldest kid can roamed around the place this time round without supervision while we gotta accompanied the little princess. And, I spent RM60 to apply 'passports' for them.... not really sure what it is for except they can get more privileges, like earn more 'money'...hahaha..

My little princess in action at the Spritzer and Lifebuoy booths

More actions here as my kid turns investigator, construction worker, income tax officer, shopper while my little princess got her nails colored.

My little princess turns surgeon now while my kid busy repairing some TM breakdowns.

I felt good seeing them enjoying the activities while I relaxed around in the cooling theme park instead of going out on the hot day. I heard SG just opened a Kidzania too but I will probably bring them there later cos it will be very crowded now. Oh, after all these are done including shopping around IKEA, we patronised BB HO steamboat again in Puchong. It's been a while since I last ate there.

It was kinda quiet around 10pm+

Love the fried vermicelli with fish meat

New addition from them, fried chicken wings and it's so much better than those I had in IKEA earlier.

And, the main dish, Pulau Ketam steamboat. It's still good! The ingredients are fresh!

Fire Station at Kidzania City

A view of the place

Anotther view ..... there was really a crowd on the friday after Christmas

I find this is a great place for kids, though 5 hours was not enough for one visit. The kids learnt how to be independent, did some role-playing and learnt something. My kids really enjoy this edutainment cum theme park. However, thanks to advice by Merryn and her earlier posts, I got an idea of what activities are popular and thus, we tried to avoid those activities first so that the kids can 'play' more in those not so crowded activities.

Both my kids became dentists... and learn how to brush teeth!

My little princesss joined  two older kids in delivering a postage. The two kids really sayang her .... taking care of her while delivering the postage.

Both bro and sis became sushi master

My kid wanted to drive .... however, before he can do so, he needed to go for an eye test, buy an insurance and learn how to drive in order to obtain his license. All in all, it takes him almost 2 hours before he finally can start driving. He also learnt how to pump petrol and got paid, in their 'currency'.

Becoming a police .... while the 'firemen' busy putting off a fire at a hotel .....

As a first aid nurse

We tried to make them play as much activities as possible, though we did buy them some snacks while queuing. Anyway, they missed out on the hot ones, like being a pilot and a fire fighter which we will try to come earlier in our next trip and let them experience it. However, we poor parents have to endure standing and walking for almost 5 hours!! We queued with them,then we waited for them to finish the activity and the process repeat all over again ... phew!! I think it will be great if they can provide more food stalls and chairs for us poor parents!!

We shall go again in the next school holidays!
