PRETEND CITY

I heard about this place a while ago when some friends went there (my kids had colds so we couldn't go). My Mom heard about it and wanted to go so we decided to. For those who don't know... it's pretty much a kid size city. There are stores, a police office, fire station, cafe, house, beach, ect and they have dress up clothes at each place so the kids can pretend to be the different things. It's pretty cool and the kids had a blast! (WARNING: tons of pictures!)

You start out by getting your time card so you can get a stamp at each location you "worked" at...

Then you go into the city. This gives you a little idea of what it's like...
