Irvine Spectrum

Nana and I tried to take the kids to Pretend City in celebration of its 2nd birthday where admission was free all day!  But since the line was out the door, we decided to go to Plan B and hit up the Spectrum instead.  We rode on a trackless train, the ferris wheel and the carousel.  When it got hot, we headed to Target.  Who needs Pretend City when you can play at Target?  There’s so much to do there!

We rode on the slowest ferris wheel on earth!

The boys were excited for some Jamba Juice.  The Strawberries Wild turned them wild by the end of the day.

Thanks Nana for all the fun rides!

 

Nana bought each boy a toy of his choice.  Ethan picked two cars that made sounds from Disney’s Cars.  Michael had a difficult time choosing what he wanted.  I think it’s because when he’s out with me he doesn’t get to bring home anything, and whatever he plays with in the stores, I always ask him to put them back.  Well today was his lucky day!  He came home with a new Mobigo game that had a Chuggington theme.  Of course it had to be educational! =)  It tests your memory, teaches you problem solving, matching and classification.  He was so excited to play it that he stayed up during the ride home AND totally skipped his naptime.  I’m so glad that Michael has an affinity of learning, and I hope it stays that way for a long time.
