| From Fairyland |
A few weeks ago, we had a playdate at Children's Fairyland near Lake Merritt in Oakland. We went with our dear friends the Francisco's. Melissa and Chris are parents to Cathleya, a super intelligent 2 and a half year old, and they are expecting a son in July =)
Richie and I wanted to check out Fairyland as a possible birthday location for Naomi and I also wanted to take my god-daughter somewhere specifically for her to have fun since Melissa and I usually meet up for lunch at a restaurant. Fairyland has been around for 60 years and, supposedly, was Walt Disney's inspiration to create a children's amusement park. It's no Disneyland, but it's quite charming. Very young children will think this place is huge and it's totally catered to them.
Naomi was all smiles and was enjoying the sites and sounds. She's probably have more fun when she's 2 years old and can roam around and explore on her own two feet. Somewhere on Yelp! a reviewer said that "you should bring your kids to Fairyland before bringing them to Disneyland." Well... consider it done! Fairyland was fun, but it's no Disneyland. We probably won't go back to Fairyland until she's old enough to say she'd like to go when asked, but.... next month, Disneyland, here we come!!
