Sam in Megakidz

Brought Sam to Megakidz, the paid indoor playground in Midvalley Megamall today. Reached there so early, they were just opened at 10am, we're the 1st customer!

Costs RM$8.45 per entry for Sam's age. But turns out that both the child & the accompanying parent must wear socks in the play area, which I wasn't prepared for, so had to fork out another RM$9.90 for 2 pairs of socks for the 2 of us.

The play area for the toddlers wasn't very big. One of the play houses was in fact a duplicate of the one in Sam's playschool. So Sam didn't even go near that! But he happily tried out the plastic rocking horse, & easily climbed the short obstacle course. Then he went hyper playing with the little plastic balls:



The place not bad, having kids' size toilets & diaper changing area, even a simple makeshift curtain for breastfeeding. But seemed to have some kind of bugs in the toddlers play area: Sam's exposed legs had multiple red spots after playing for < 1 hr, though he didn't seem to find them itchy (maybe coz too excited playing). Luckily the spots subsided as quickly as they came: by the time we reached home at 1 pm for his nap, they were barely visible.

And the food sold there are rather unhealthy: soft drinks & mainly fried foods. Guess they were catering to the children's fav.

Must try to drive to Great Eastern Mall, to try out the other chain of indoor playground........

  1. Ive seen one email saying tht dun let ur child play in the plastic ball area! Especially places like MacDonald etc where they have these area to let little children to play the plastic balls!
    This is becoz they had found all kinds of things in the playarea, underneath those balls. Things like food, urine, poo and even broken needles used by ppl to take drugs! But of coz the indoor playground wont have the needles lar. Jus tht when being interview, they say tht they only clean up the area and the balls once a month. So after reading, i dun dare to let Tiff go play in Mac liao. U still can let Sam go indoor lar, but jus beware lor.

  2. I tell you, Sam even put the balls to his mouth!!!!!!!! Can't stop him, he always too quick!

    Anyway, will only be bringing him there for these 2 weeks, until his playschool starts again. Else, I dunno what to do with him in the mornings............

    Now thinking of going to get him a tricycle & some hola hoops, so that he can have some toys to play outdoors also. But me don't enjoy the heat outside leh......
