After the house was cleaned on Saturday we decided to head out and check out the Aquarium at Mill's mall. It took us a little to locate it in the mall; but that is alright because I am trying to walk out a baby anyways! ;)
It was nice having a Pogopass because we were able to go to the front of the line! The kids were so excited at the entrance because they were told to find the answers on their answer sheet to earn a prize. So they were busy looking for the 'fin facts' in each room.
I wasn't sure if Bayden would enjoy the darkness; so for most of the beginning he hung out in the stroller - safely buckled.
I truly enjoyed the fact that the business broke up the crowds and had groups wait their turns because a stroller was obnoxious at times.
There were touching areas located throughout with different starfish, rays and fish that you could feel.
After a while Bayd was coming alive! He wanted to explore with us; He was so good about staying with us.
There is a large aquarium room that the Kiddos loved. Stairs up to a platform that looked over Sharks and stingrays; with a viewing tunnel. It was perfect for them- they were running all around enjoying the area. While I was using my 'sits' bones, enjoying the Aquarium and taking a break! We could have stayed in there for hours! Perfection! :)
This place has it all! The end of the path features a large indoor playland! The children were in heaven, climbing up and going down the slide! There were comfy couches for nursing mom's. Wow this room was packed! We stayed for a while.
Lastly, upon exiting the children earned their medal for handing in their question card. They were so excited to get something in the gift shop; & I was excited that it was free! ;)
What a fun way to begin the day with these kiddos.
Daddo really missed out on this one! He will be there with us; next time! :)
