Time flies, the kids
school holiday will be over in no time! Have you managed to bring your kids somewhere to have some fun and learn some new things at the same time? Or are you still scratching your head trying to google for places to go to have
some relaxing and bonding time with them?
How about visiting this new personalized edutainment park called Little Kingdom which is strategically
located at the centre of Kuala Lumpur! This means for parents who are staying
in Klang Valley and nearby, it'll be a short travel and short getaway where
your kids and you can enjoy a day trip to chill out and learn at the same time.
Of course, for those who are planning your travel to Kuala Lumpur, this will
also be a good chance to check out this awesome place- Little Kingdom, which has
just opened this year.
I have the chance to check
out the place during one of the weekend with my family of five and I have planned to
spend around 4 hours (about half day) there. To my surprise, we end up spending a full day there. Kids and I had great fun, bonding and staying away for
gadgets for once!

Look at the beautiful decor |
When we first stepped in, as
the name suggested, Little Kingdom, we are greeted with tiny door as we entered
the entrance, and greeted with colourful and cartoon characters and many nice
stops for parents who love to take nice pictures with their children.
The first thing we went is
to visit a booth with friendly staff which would give each of the kids their "Personalized Game Challenge" note which marks down their activities which
they are interested to participate as well as the time of the activities so
that they will remember to drop by the places of the events or activities they
have planned to visit. They are also given a Little Kingdom Power Card to
challenge themselves and earn a chop at each stop they have visited.

Notice how everything is customized to kids’ size.
My kids and I sat on this Amazon Ride several times
without bored. It is a shooting game ride which you are will get a chop on your
power card after finishing your mission.
3. Encourage and educate the importance of parent-child bonding.

Parents can sit along with their kids |
This is when parent and child is able to have some
bonding time driving and learning the traffic rules together. Yes, the car is
big enough to accommodate adult size!
4. Provide a platform for parents to explore their
child's talents and skill by observing their action and behavior.
Some highlights of the
places which I like:
*Spacious and modern kitchen*
|
Catching a glimpse of little chef at work |
This where they hold cooking
classes (you can check out the timing of their activities and classes at the
ticketing counter or at the booth on your left once you entered) with real-life
kitchen utensils which are also sold in their Little Elf Factory just before
you exit the place.

*Cozy and clean place for nursing
moms*
This is the no. 1 place I usually would visit as I often felt toilets (especially) and also another star feature, i.e. nursing rooms show how detailed they go into ensuring the place is convenient
and comfortable for their visitors.
