Hubby and I bring our kids to playground regularly, and most of the time, we will let them spend some time at those indoor playgrounds at shopping malls. It’s the best way for mommy to go shopping in peace, while daddy taking his breathe from taking care of our two active kids. LOL!

I was really surprised to received at email from Simon, whom I assumed is the owner of Funarium, telling me that the biggest indoor play facility has opened in Bangkok. I came across Funarium when I was in Sukhumvit some time ago, but it was still under construction. If it’s not because of this email, I might not even know that it’s launched. So, thanks Simon.

We brought the kids there last Saturday afternoon, and both of them were thrilled as soon as we reached Funarium.

 

Both kids and adults have to pay a certain amount of admission fee, but actually, there is a time limit for playing in the facility. Nonetheless, everyone was allowed to spend as much time as you’re pleased since Funarium has just launched for a week. I’m not sure when will this “promotion” end, so you better get more information by giving them a call.

The play facility of Funarium.

 

This is where we spent the whole Saturday afternoon…

 

You need to put on socks to enter the play area, so bring your own socks or buy at the counter. I would suggest anti-slip socks as the adult socks I bought don’t have anti-slip at the bottom and it’s quite slippery walking in them. Make sure that you bring only anti-slip socks for your children if they are here at Funarium. The children socks sold here are anti-slip, so my kids could run and play around freely.

Hubby and I like to  accompany our kids to play, and I like snapping photos of them, so we followed our kids closely. But if you are really busy to be here with your kids, you need to have at least an adult to accompany your child who’s under 5 years old as the play facility shown above is designed for kids from 5 – 13 years old. I saw a few children accompanied by their maids only, so I guess if you maid can do a good job, it should be fine.

But there is a playground for babies and toddlers too…

While hubby played with the kids, I spent some time checking out the 1st floor of the facility.

The 1st floor has some rooms for party, parents, and art & crafts.

 

The parents room.

Besides playing indoor, there is a sand and water play area outside too.

The sandpit

 

There is a connecting door to get to this side, but I would hope that this door is locked and can only be opened by parents or the helpers here. I actually saw a kid running to the door and try to go out by himself. Thank god his brother was quick to stop him as it was raining heavily later that afternoon.

Our kids didn’t play outside at all as they were pretty occupied with…

The slides!

 

I think Isabelle played with this slide close to 20 times at a go! She just kept running up the “steps” and down with the slide. LOL!

 

This slide is kind of fast, and it took Justin awhile to have the confidence to play by himself. Hubby was with him initially.

 

My kids love the trampoline.

 

Justin loves swinging back and for like Tarzan. LOL!

 

The ball area is fun for them too.

 

The kids like to put the balls into the vacuum pipes, and…

 

watch the balls all falling down when “chute” is full.

 

The kids love riding on the bikes too.

 

Not to mention, hubby and I had quite a “great workout” climbing up and down playing with the kids.

I think I almost wanna pengsan walking up and down and…

 

 
crawling in the tunnels with Justin. LOL! He really has great stamina.

 

Luckily hubby is fitter than me and he always enjoys playing with the kids so that I can take a break and snap more photos!

 

Actually, we had a small break after playing for awhile.

Don’t disturb me, let me finish my ice-cream fast fast then I will go play again!

 

Just one question, why are most of the popcorns salted here in Bangkok? It’s so hard to find caramel popcorns!

 

I think we spent close to 4 hours here. In fact, we even had our dinner before leaving Funarium.

Justin said no one TOUCHED his sandwiches and chips.

 

After hours of playing, both kids had such a good appetite!

Let’s makan first…

 

The main reason why we decided to have dinner here is, the kids would surely knock out in the car on the way home, and I was right about it! LOL!

If you are interested to know about the location of Funarium, just check out the link. Your kids can also join as members to enjoy the facility, but I won’t do so for my kids. We are not staying in Sukhumvit area, so I don’t think we will come here often. But we will surely bring the kids to Funarium again since they love the place so much.

Just in case you are wondering, no, this post is not a paid review. LOL!
