KidDO

While I do not want to expose Anush to any summer camp that will conflict with her school, I intend exploring " kid activity oriented" places and here are some.

Anushka spent a cool hour at Vanilla Place and she keeps referring to it as Vanilla Drops. ( after her favourite biscuit) She remains afraid of swings but enjoys the slides and tunnels and of course the trampoline. I look forward to going there for the 'Lazy Sunday brunch' but not for any of the lectures since I do not believe parenting can be learnt that way. The kinder music seems like a nice module.

Kanchana paati- more like a home away from home it has a good play yard and a fish tank apart from a cool variety of activities which seem stimulating and fun. My only concern is that it may be over crowded and means a lot of hours each day.

Hippocampus- need to go there sometime soon- have only heard great stuff about it and the trivia questions on the website are inviting. They seem to have a good book collection and are open on Sundays.

You should seriously put together a book or a separate blog with Chennai haunts. You amaze me with all the useful info on restaurants, shopping and kid oriented stuff. The day I move to Chennai, whenever that is, I am going to join you as your "sishyai"!!

BTW, it took me a good five minutes to iterpret the title of the post, Kid + Do. Super cool.

Can you believe I work practically next door to Vanilla Place and never heard/saw it until now !! And I have been thinking Baby's Day Out is the only interesting indoor place to take Bubbles to in the summer heat.
