But her opinion was soon changed
The configuration and design of Kidz Amaze Toa Payoh is quite different from the one at Jurong in that it covers a wider area on the ground while the Jurong branch extends itself upward.
It does not have a 3-storey high slide
but what it made the little girl go ecstatic with joy anyway
"Mum, it's fun!"
It has a ball pool which children sit in to wait for the avalanche of soft sponge balls to cascade on them
I was quite amused by machines like this that suspended balls in mid air using concentrated gust of air coming out from the air vent
The only thing that marred her experience slightly was meeting some rowdy boys who shouted at her to 'get out' of their 'house', a tower-like area accessible by a netting route.
The boy in blue was extending his hand to his kaki and asking him to 'come up' while chasing Baby away.
Poor Baby bullied and left
Like its Jurong counterpart, Kidz Amaze TPY also has birthday rooms for different capacities
Not sure what I was thinking but I told Baby this could be her birthday party venue this year!
A birthday party going on with the children entertained by the staff at Kidz Amaze!
Unlike Kidz Amaze Jurong, this place caters to younger children too!
This is the Infant Zone.
Toddler Zone
Another improvement from its predecessor: a bean-bag lounge area for the parents within the play area itself!
More waiting area just outside the play area for parents who do not want to pay the extra $2.15, equipped with a TV and tidbits and drinks dispensing machines too!
It also has more pigeon holes for the large crowd compared to the one at Jurong
The only thing I am slightly put off with is the 'leather' smell the moment I stepped in through the door. It was the smell that made me nauseous when I sat in my father's second Mercedes when young. From the looks of everybody else, I suspected I was the only one who picked up that smell. I convinced myself that after 20 minutes, it would not register anymore. It worked but it would have been almost perfect (sans the bullying) without that smell.
Baby actually remained in Kidz Amaze from 1.30pm to 6.30pm!
