Might sound crazy but with all my kids have been helping for pesach we decided to surprise them and take them on a trip tomorrow to give them a break and recharge them for the upcoming busy days and yt.

We live in Monsey. Don’t want to spend all day traveling but want to go a little far away bc we’ve done everything nearby and want it to be a whole day event.

Kids range from 6months -11yrs old. It’s cold so needs to be indoors.

They had 2 ropes courses, the big one for adults and older kids, and a mini junior one for younger kids. For the big one they must be 48" tall or 42" with an adult accompanying them. For the mini one, up to 48".

My younger kids (under 10) didn't enjoy the ropes course and came right down. It's a trip more geared towards older kids/teens.
