Chuck E. Cheese, that is. Yes, we swallowed our parental preference tonight and went with the kids' choice for an evening activity. We had planned to have a day at the zoo, but given that we in Michigan are in the middle of a virtual April blizzard--yes, BLIZZARD--we figured it would not be the most pleasant day to walk around at the zoo.Is there any kid who doesn't love a trip to Chuck E. Cheese? The combination of pizza, games, tokens, and cheap annoying prizes just gets them every time! But I must say that I really got into it tonight.....my daughter and I found this game called "Wheel of Fortune" and we won many, many tickets.....we actually hit the jackpot of 200 tickets 2 times in a row....I have to admit that I WAS PUMPED! We actually won over 1,000 tickets--a McDonald family record--so Kennedy got to select 6 cheap dollar-store quality prizes rather than one! Oh, the joy! The kids were full of smiles and laughter, so it was worth the annoyance that I think every parent feels at Chuck E. Cheese....not to mention the headache that you inevitably walk away with.
Look at all those tickets! Wow, I had better stay away from Las Vegas.....this could get a bit addictive! Just kidding.....I'll stick to the tickets at Chuck E. Cheese.
