Never Woulda Thought…

…That we would be McDonald’s Playplace Parents. But honestly, if you can stand thinking of what germs may be lurking there and just don’t worry about it too much, the McDonald’s Playplace is the best thing ever in the winter time. If you have a wild child to entertain (or if you have any children at all, for that matter), this should be a regular place to visit. Germs, shmerms!

We have a Playplace right near us that we frequent, and we recently discovered a much better one across from the Provo Towne Center. They have a nice area that is toddler-friendly, including a big piano keyboard (like on the movie BIG). The big climbing area is spacious enough for me to climb in play with the kids, too! We just went there today with GG and spent two hours there, which we all loved! Family bonding galore.

One thing that I refuse to do is buy my kids Happy Meals, even though they’re the only kids in there without ’em. I just don’t want the toy lying around and then going to the landfill, and I also don’t want my kids to get everything they want! And to think I used to get so mad when my parents wouldn’t get us Happy Meals…

Today we tried the new McDonald’s Smoothie, $2 for a small– pretty decent, if you ask me. Not the best smoothie of my life (Smoothie King smoothies win that award, hands down), but it’s tasty and refreshing. For the record, though, their chicken nuggets are still disgusting!
