We Brought Our Son to Kidzooona to Further Develop His Motor Skills

Greetings!

Time flies and our son is quickly growing up so we see to it that he enjoys his years as a young child and as parents, we also do whatever we can to enjoy the years of our son while he is still a young child. I'll be honest, I missed the years when our son was still a toddler, and now that he is a 5-year-old child there is still some cuteness in his actions which we are cherishing every time he does cute child things.

To make him enjoy his young childhood we brought him to an indoor park for children last Easter Sunday, the park is called Kidzooona located at a famous shopping mall about an hour's drive from our house. There are actually many reasons why we brought him to this indoor park, first is to make him enjoy his childhood and let him play like a child, the second is to further develop his motor skills, and the third is for our parents to cherish the moments of his childhood.

Immediately after entering the indoor park, my son's eyes are everywhere and when he finally decided what he is going to do inside the indoor park he went to the kitchen section (as can be seen in the photo below). My son loves to play with kitchen sets (he actually does have a cooking set toy that we brought for him months ago).

Then he decided to go somewhere else, he stopped at a cute fruit stand with a weighing scale in it (as can be seen below). My wife is actually the one who accompanied my son inside the park while I am spectating outside, good thing all inside parks like this all have glass walls where you can see all your child is doing from the outside.

And then after quite some time that he spent in the fruit stand, he then relocated to a toy village complete with houses, roads, and vehicles (as can be seen in the two photos below). It is a good thing that we went early to the park my son has the luxury of playing with all the toys inside the park on his own.

My son did not spend much time in the toy village because when he searched for something to play he saw the large toy blocks (as can be seen in the photo below) which are one of his favorite toys and he immediately went after them. At this moment I am carefully watching from the outside what he is going to do.

At first, I noticed that he was quite unsure of what he is going to do, but slowly but surely I noticed that he is building a "welcome arc" (as can be seen in the next two photos below), building a welcome arc is one of his favorites to build with the small toy blocks that were given to him by his cousin (which is also with him playing inside the park).

Of course, every indoor park does have a pool of plastic balls in it and that is where my son went next (as can be seen in the next two photos below). At this time kids are slowly turning up to play inside the park. He also did not spend lot of time in the pool of plastic balls.

He then relocated to the biking section where he got up with his cousins. My wife asks them to line up together so that she can take a photo of them as a remembrance (as can be seen in the photo below, there is also a small video of him below while biking). My son rode a bike for a couple of minutes and then he again decided to go somewhere else, his cousin also went with him.

I saw my son and his cousins settled into the plastic slide to which he and his cousin also did not spend much time sliding maybe because they have been into outdoor parks with lots of slides on them (below is a video of my son and his cousins while sliding).

After an hour he spent at Kidzooona my son is still excited to play (a testament that his motor skill is stimulated and further developing in the process because of the very engaging toys that he gets to play with at the park). We are also surprised when he asked us when we are going to return. We did promise him that we are going to return to the park.

That is all for now guys, see you next time. Wishing you all safety, good health, and abundance.

It's nice to see they're open again. I like the make-believe aspect of different activity areas. During the first three years when we moved to the Philippines, I used to take my daughter to Kidzoona and similar play areas. Then the pandemic happened and for 2 years it was closed.

Yes, it's nice to see them open again because kids do love them, my son actually asked us when we are going to return immediately after leaving Kidzboona, that's how he loves playing at Kidzooona.

Aww, I bet it was quite a challenge asking them to leave. It was like that for us before.

You are correct, we spent quite some time convincing them to leave.

Hello, my friend.
Playgrounds of this sensory and building style stimulate the child and make them confident; as well as interacting with others. That experience allows him to learn and reinforce old knowledge by putting it into practice like building the tower, or making food; in short it is rewarding for a parent to see the children's progress and participate in that experience.
Hugs!

Well said, thank you for dropping by, hugs.

I love such kidz-only splendid spots so much!
And I had the same 'wooden railroad' as in this photo, of course I dont play with it anymore, 😁

The sad thing is, that it is so lonely in the photos above, and kids still have to wear the masks. <-- No fun!

I agree, I am praying this pandemic ends now. Thank you for stopping by and have a nice day ahead.

Blessings my friend! A very nice place that will help the little ones to develop not only motor skills but also cognitive skills. I imagine they had a special time and of course the little ones had a lot of fun.

Peace and good!

Indeed, the kids had a lot of fun playing. Thank you for stopping by.

do you still wear masks?? even kids???

it's heaven for children;) my son likes such game rooms too:)

Yep, kids and adults still wear masks. And yes, it is heaven for kids with this kind of indoor park.

Here, at St.Petersburg we are not pushed to wear them any more. 🤪

A dream place to be.
Most expecially kids

A splendid, dream place I agree! I used to spend time with my best friend at a place like this in my location, in the mall -- named 'Kidsburg', but have no photos to show. Very memorable!

Wow, what a beautiful place loaded with so many games for the enjoyment of children.

They sure had a great time.

You are correct, they indeed had a great time playing..
