Where we look for Halloween themed things to do with our children..
We gave Gardner Village a shot again after last years fiasco. While their activities greatly improved,
here are a few things you ought to know.
1. All the little skits are gone that we once were entertained by.
2. It's now basically a giant playground for the kids.
3. It's $6 dollars a head. Even for the parents to go in and chaperone their kids in a playground and keep them out of mischief. Yup! While it's a kid base activity, they charge the adults to go in with them. Long gone are the days of the witches and the little skits they'd act out.
On the other hand. Kids have a completely excited blast in the play area. Especially on the new jump pillow. Adults can jump too, but Mom the photographer was taking pics....
They have a hay maze, several slide and a candy corn box to play in (dried corn to play in like a sandbox). There is a dance area as well.
The pony ride are back again this year! You have the option of putting them on the pony carousel (that will never happen for my boy as long as they have the other one) and the Pony ride around Garner Village.
The Pony Ride around the village is the ride of choice for most. If you're luck enough to get the owner of 'The Farm at Gardner Village' you're in for a treat! He's entertaining and fun. He's charming with the children and crack many a joke. He says hi to everyone as he passes and teacher the girls to wave as they go by and the boys to tip a cowboy hat at the ladies!
Enough of my talking, how about a few photos courtesy of Tashee Photography..
