Burn That Energy Kid.

|
Weather conditions were less than ideal yesterday for any outdoor activities, at least for a two week old baby and her 2-1/2 year old older brother; however, that same toddler is not content to sit inside and watch the latest episode of Explorer on NatGeo like his dad is - so an indoor activity that would allow him to burn up some stored energy was needed. And quick.

With Google and a few quick links, I discovered Abbey's Playtown in Grand Prairie, an indoor playground where the parents are free and the little ones are a small fee with unlimited playtime. Bounce houses, ball pits, miniature car tracks, a variety of play houses, and of course a Thomas the Train play set - the kid seemed to be in heaven.

Walking in the door, he headed straight for the Thomas play table - similiar to the one he has at HOME.

We did not drive 30 minutes for him to play on a freaking Thomas play table - we are here to burn energy kid, not to have fun!! So finally I got him to go into the bounce houses, germs pits (ball pits), and to find an occasional little friend along the way.

All in all, I give Abbey's seven out of ten golden stars. The price was right, a few more energy burning areas could be used, and they could definitely do away with the constant loud kids music - but after all it is a kids playground.
