The first obstacle challenge that the kids need to go through was walk the plank to avoid crocodile from biting them. Mouse mommy was too excited to join the fun together till forgot to snap a photo of it. MR was also running on the plank in zigzag position to avoid the crocodile from the side.

After that, we are continuing running towards the second kid’s obstacle challenge, which was a big inflatable food pyramid. MR was required to climb up the 3 feet tall pyramid and slide all the way down. MR loves this inflatable pyramid so much and asked mouse mommy to continue to play after we finished the running track. Kids always love inflatable activities!
