ExplorerKid

A lazy Sunday(and I still havn't got enough sleep...) but we still got our butts outta home and went to check the talked about the ExplorerKid @ E!hub Downtown East. I believe this had been around for a while now, just that it was recently, WS's mommy had been asking me to go there with them and our timing just couldn't 'match', so I decided to check the place out ourselves.

Nearing the place, we saw the brightly lighted Ferris Wheel and asked Renee if she'd like to try it later but she had thought that it'll be very faster than 'The Flyer' and said no, :).

We toured around the whole place(almost) and finally, we went back to the ExplorerKid as Renee wanted to go to the playground. We signed up for its membership and I even have to pay for a new pair of socks('cos I didn't have any on) and in we went. I brought Renee through 'The Cave' with big cute mushrooms, straight to the ball pools. Liking colours, she headed straight to the one filled with colourful balls and was very happy there til I had to get her to go to the playground for more fun. However, the kids there were pretty rough and a few times, she was almost knocked down by them if I wasn't there to hold/'save' her. She managed to give some parts of it a try on my urging and to encourage her, I even looked for easier 'paths' for her to go on her own. For the 1st time, I accompanied her til half way through and got her to try out the rest on her own but the 2nd time I left her, she cried out and I had to assure her that I'd be going over to the other end for her like earlier, haha.

Then, she decided she wanted to go back to the ball pools and after a while at the colourful one again(which is actually for 3 yrs and below), I finally persuaded her to go to the Lit Ball Pool, which is for older kids.

To be honest, for the price, it wasn't that fantastic to me(perhaps it'd be more fun if she goes there with her friend(s) or maybe she's too young) and their time limit of 1 hour is more than enough, although Renee had not wanted to leave, hahaha. And before & after our dinner, Renee wanted to go on the Ferris Wheel but we hadn't got our camera along today and had already missed out those shots at the ExplorerKid, so we told her we'll come and let her try it the next time, :D.

When we got home, I set about packing more stuffs for daddy's office - oh man, when can I have a good rest?... :D
