Grace fear removed!

Did I ever mention that Grace is very timid? As naughty as she is, as fierce (well, sometimes) as she is, she's really a timid girl. She's afraid of animals, especially those with loud noise, she's afraid of dark, she's afraid of big ugly fish, she's afraid to take a ride on the kiddo ride which will move and sway. There's a whole lot of things she's afraid of. Well, this trip to Genting Highlands had removed one of her fear but imposed another fear for the parents. Err...I'm exaggerating when I said fear for the parents, it's merely just headaches for the parents.

What's the fear that's removed? It's there fear of taking kiddo rides! One would ask, how?

It started of with the ride on South East Asia fastest and longest cable car (Genting Skyway). She was initially stunned and shocked as I did not pre-tuned her for the ride. She refuses to sit on her own but asked to be carried. After sometime, the fear level dropped and when we were on our way down, she was sitting on her own and chatting all the way.

Next, we had a very long walk and wait to check into our hotel room. By then, Grace had already had a preview of the outdoor theme park and very eager to get into action. But we want her to take a nap. So she took a very short nap. Extremely eager to get into action. Spent RM88 for 2 adult entry to the Outdoor Theme Park and we're all set to let our little princess try out the rides. It was very misty that evening.

We took the first Merry-Go-Round ride and Grace was not so keen with the ride. You could see in her facial expression.



Then she started warming up for the next few more exciting rides. Photos say it all.




Err...oh ok...it seems that the parents are more excited in these photos.

After those rides, we came to one that really took Grace's breath away. The antique car. These are cars on a track, with steering wheels and a paddle (well kind of) for us to step on. We could control the speed but not the direction in this one. Grace totally loves it! We took 5 or was it 6 rides. And here's the little driver.










Then daddy has his turn in Archery.


After that, we walked to the Children Rides area, where kids ride on their own. Initially Grace refuses to ride on her own and told us she doesn't want to ride. So we walked away, but later she said she wanted not 1 but 2 rides. Guess she must have worked away her fear.


After dinner, Grace found the ride that she love most. The kiddo car ride. It is meant for kids below the height of 110cm. And she had 4 rides that night and many more (completing the whole array of cars) the next morning.







And since then, every time we see a kiddo ride, she will want to take a ride, not while it is not moving like last time, but requested us to put in money so that the ride could move! Now, that's one headache to us!

Hi there - looks like you had a lovely time at Genting Highlands.
We went there at the beginning of the year and it was soooo cold we didn't do any of the outdoor rides. But the kids did do the ride inside that goes around and up a mini Eiffel Tower, they just loved it :-)
