Summer Fun with Little Ones
Early next month, I will be braving my first theme park with a two-year old. Fortunately, or unfortunately, my husband’s whole family will be there to help me with this feat of parenting! And as you can tell by the title of this post, I just thank god it’s not the very LARGE, magically CROWDED kingdom of Disney – that will come when my daughter is a little bit older. Instead, we are trekking to Sesame Place in Langhorne, PA. After scouring the website, it actually looks like my daugher will absolutely love the trip, which is well worth the experience. There are dry rides, water parks, parades and live shows with her favorite characters – Elmo, Abby, Big Bird, Zoe and Cookie Monster. However, it’s smaller and less well known than Disney World, so I can only imagine that lines and prices won’t be too ridiculous (knock on wood). Furthermore, it’s only a 6 hour drive, versus the 2 days or heinous plane ride it takes to get to Orlando. Sesame Place is only 30 minutes from Philly, so I’ll get to check “get an authentic cheese steak” off of my bucket list. And, most excitingly for me, the park is only 2 hours from my family in Maryland. I hope I’m not counting my chicks before they hatch, but I’m actually looking forward to this mini vacation! <img src=”{filedir_2}24de581170e5481eb6c165bae378d556_sp11_paradenight3_t5d8056v2.jpg” alt=”” height=”345″ width=”460″ />
