Ravensburger Spieleland

Since we couldn't go on vacation this week (Aidan's off school, but Jason has to work), I've been trying to do day trips in the area. Yesterday we went to a theme park in Germany run by the Ravensburger Puzzle Company. It's a great place for young kids. Think Camp Snoopy at Cedar Point, but more stuff to do and no grown up rides. It was a great day to go, 70 degrees, sunny and hardly anyone was there!This fire truck ride wore me out! I had to turn a crank to make the fire engine roll down, then turn another crank so Aidan could squirt the water to put out a "fire", then roll us back. This is when it would have been nice to have Daddy with us!

Mommy got more exercise on the paddle boats.
Ravensburger is famous for their puzzles, so of course they had giant puzzles to put together, which the kids loved.

We spent a lot of time at the Grune Oase (Green Oasis) where they had lots of farm activities. The kids loved these pedal tractors and animals. They rode ponies and we went on a tractor ride and even milked a pretend cow.
