Sesame Place


On Saturday we took the girls to Sesame Place. It is this cute amusement park for little kids full of fun Sesame Street characters and fun rides and concerts. Laneah was in heaven. She loves rides. Her first ride was on the big roller coaster with daddy. Her favorite rides were the fish ride and the teacups. She was fearless on all the rides and then we get on the carousel and she starts crying and yelling "help!help!" at the top of her lungs, clinging to me for dear life. What? Are you kidding me? She has been on the carousel a hundred times and has always loved it.

We saw Elmo's World live and that was really fun. Elmo came out and Laneah kept waving and yelling "Hi Elmo!" trying to get his attention. It was a really cute show and she had a great time. We ate lunch after the show and then rode some more rides. The water rides were open, but it was a little chilly so we decided not to bring our swim suits, which was fine, because there were plenty of other things to do.


They have a parade with all the characters that comes down Sesame Street. I thought Laneah would love seeing her favorite characters in person, and she did as long as they were a good distance away. But if they got close at all, she got really scared. The parade was really cute, but Laneah didn't like it because the characters kept coming too close. All the other kids were giving them high fives and hugs and Laneah was yelling "no!no!no!"

One Laneah's favorite bands, Ralph's World, was performing there over the weekend so we went and saw them in concert. It was so cute. Laneah and all the other kids were going crazy dancing and singing along. It was a really fun concert, Jason and I even enjoyed it. Afterwords we bought one of his cds and the lead singer, Ralph signed it and we took a picture with him. I won't put it on the blog because Laneah is screaming and trying to get away and my eyes are closed, so I will spare you.



The park was a lot of fun. Very kid friendly and I would highly recommend it. We left at 6:30 and Laneah was so tired she passed out while eating dinner. We will be going back because a 2 day Elmo pass is the SAME price as a regular ticket. Uh...seriously? Yes, I want the 2 day pass that I can use any time I want to this season. So we will be going back and despite the drive(it is in PA) it was totally worth it.
