Fun at KidsFest
What’s KidsFest? For us, it started with a family day weekend, and we thought what better way to celebrate than with an epic rendezvous at KidsFest? Nestled right in the heart of the Greater Toronto Area, in none other than Mississauga, Ontario, this event was like a beacon of joy amidst the frosty Canadian winter. With the promise of indoor excitement, it was the perfect choice for my sister, her kids, and yours truly.
Stepping into KidsFest was like entering a wonderland tailored just for kids. The entrance greeted us with a colossal teddy bear, instantly capturing the hearts of my nephews (and maybe mine too, just a tad). And we couldn't resist snapping a few shots in this setting.
But the real magic awaited us beyond those entrance doors. It was like stepping into a bouncy castle paradise! Inflatable wonders of all shapes and sizes beckoned, promising endless thrills for kids of every age (including the grown-up ones, guilty as charged). From pint-sized slides to adrenaline-pumping giants fit for the whole family, there was no shortage of fun to be had.
Now, let me confess: amidst all the excitement, I found my personal slice of heaven – a slide that whisked you down in a blow-up tire at breakneck speed. Talk about a rush! I may or may not have relived my childhood in that moment, but hey, who can blame me? Fun knows no age limit, right?
Around every corner there were several activities awaiting our exploration. It was evident from the moment we arrived at KidsFest that this was not your typical outing. The air buzzed with excitement, and my nephews' eyes sparkled with anticipation – and let's be real, mine too!
Next stop? The kid-friendly petting zoo, a haven of adorable critters just waiting to be cuddled and cooed over. And if you know me by now, you know I have to mention the food court. It was a hub of culinary delights, perfect for refueling between all the action-packed activities.
In between this was a treasure trove of games, we dove headfirst into the carnival-like atmosphere, trying our luck and winning some seriously cool loot along the way. And speaking of loot, I have to mention the vendors – offering up everything from funky hats to trendy tops, and even jaw-dropping LEGO displays featuring beloved characters like Mario.
If you visit, don't skimp on the photo ops! Trust me, you'll want to capture every precious moment. We snagged a shot in front of a beautiful floral display, complete with an adorable swing – and thanks to the magic of technology, they even snapped a professional pic for us, sending it straight to our inbox for safekeeping.
So, if you spy a KidsFest event popping up in your neck of the woods, mark your calendars and snag those tickets pronto. It's a guaranteed recipe for family fun and memories that'll last a lifetime. And hey, with Easter just around the corner, why not pencil in a date with KidsFest? Trust me, you won't regret it – it's bound to be an egg-stra 🥚special affair!
