Back in
April, daddy and I vowed to be back to Kidzania at the right time given the crowd condition during weekends and school holidays.
I got a day off in conjunction with the Sunday Graduation ceremony and daddy took leave and we left to Kidzania early Monday morning.
It was a sight to behold as the ticket counters were deserted. An unlikely situation during weekends and school holidays.
Ticketing process was a breeze and I received a tag which was to become a marker or sort for every activity photo to be sold at a price... ;-)
The empty lines gave me so much time to hang around checking my purchase.
With the RM55 ringgit per child ticket comes a cheque for 50 Kidzos. If I got the spelling right, that's the monetary unit used in Kidzania.
We were fairly early hence spent the remaining time planning our route within, hoping to cover as much activity as possible.
The first thing I did as soon as the entrance sprung open was to get to the CIMB bank to cash out my cheque. Will need the money for acquiring skills while I figure out which establishment to work for.
The opening slot is a must see cause all the employees at Kidzania does this routine flash mob to greet the patrons for the day. I didn't spend too much time admiring cause I wanted to jump right into action hence dashed to the first activity.
Activity #1: Got onto the catwalk and learned the nuances of the modelling world.
Activity #2: Worked on a Raya greeting card at the Stabilo Art and Craft Studio.
At the KPJ Healthcare center, signed up for the hottest job in Kidzania.
Doctor Satya getting acquainted with her patient and preparing for the procedure.
Activity #3: We performed an upper GI endoscopy on this outpatient. The visual examination of the upper intestinal tract was a straight forward exercise on him. (Based on the mock up profile displayed on the computer)
An
Intravenous anesthesia is given which makes the patient
unconscious for a brief period. The endoscope is then gently inserted
into the upper esophagus.
We examined and consulted with the fellow doctors on what's next.
Activity #4:New born babies were greeted at the nursery.
They were given their bath and a change of diapers.
Fed them formula milk before getting them back into their cradles.
Next up the Air Asia Skyrider Training Area.
Activity #5: Pilot Training using a flight simulator.
Activity #6: A brief stint as the Flight attendant
Activity #7: Dell notebook assembly line. plugged in all the peripherals.
Daddy wasn't too happy at my working for his competitor.
Activity #8: Sea Master Reverse Osmosis drinking water production line. Right from the preparation of the bottle itself till labeling it.
Sense of accomplishment when the final product is ready.
Activity #9: Telecom Malaysia, Unify Fiber monitoring team.
As soon as we detect a break in the line, we geared up and went onsite to fix the problem at the junction box.
We had to replace the broken fiber link and return back to base to monitor the connectivity to ensure there's no disruption to the consumers.
Activity #10: Joined the Sushi King kitchen crew.
I haven't had Japanese food but got busy preparing it.
No play thing here as all the items prepared were ready to eat real stuff.
Activity #11: The Ayam brand dessert counter.
A simple fruit mixture combined with yogurt served in mini ice cream cones topped with rainbow sprinkles.
Activity #12: It was close to lunch time so got busy at all the food joints. Here's the Mary Brown kitchen.
Made our own chicken burger.
We took a break for lunch and enjoyed all those I prepared while 'working' for the food outlets. I must say I did a brilliant job especially with the sushi.
Activity #13: Time to get serious and decided to join the force.
Got our photos taken in full gear before starting duty.
Me and my team were given a case to investigate at the hospital. Interrogated the doctor on duty and got some info to bring back to the station.
We did a fine job and obviously got paid for our efforts.
Activity #14: The fireman's were being briefed about the safety measures to take.
With the wailing siren on, we headed out in the fire engine to attend to an emergency call.
Got there on time and was able to put out the fire.
Activity #15: Time to give myself a treat after all the hectic work so I got my face painted.
Beautiful little rainbow.
Activity #16: Joined the clinic to help on a dental crown procedure.
Such a lovely patient, didn't move an inch throughout the whole process.
Activity #17: Joined the TV station for the experience in broadcasting.
I got to present the sports segment on NTV7.
Activity #18: Delivering bags of money for the CIMB bank.
Had to run around locating the places to make delivery to.
Activity #19: Took a break and went into jewelry making.
Made myself a lovely bracelet.
Activity #20: With the experience from CIMB bank, I ventured to POS Malaysia for a try at delivering parcels.
Tiring but the running around kept me awake from my routine afternoon nap.
Activity #21: Last but not least, a hand at some magic.
Learned a thing or 2 about performing a magical act.
Despite being there all throughout the day's opening hours, I managed only a handful of the activities for there were many more, some needing basic height requirement and some for older / younger kids. I had a blast and was left with extra kidzos so I opened an account at the bank for my next visit to Kidzania.
The Play and Learn Discovery Exhibition was running into it's last day today hence daddy thought it would do some good for me if I spent the late morning 'discovering'.
Some activities were already ongoing so I'd have to skip that and perhaps plan earlier next year. Confidence level was high after my recent colouring competition win.
Choices were abundance! though I had my eye on most of them, my 'financier' kept a safe distance from me so I don't bug him too much.
This particular creative piece caught my interest. The K-Hex play set. Described as a thinking and motivational activity, it not only aroused my curiosity about it but made me spent the 2nd most amount of time in a booth. 
It's these rubber like pins that are plugged into a board to create art. I was glued to it and won my way in getting myself a kit for home play time.
And the activity that got me glued the longest time was at the Hankidz booth offering an outstanding children program. Well .. what it really does is measure the confidence and ability to articulate in a child. Not many takers at first but eventually it got busy.
We were given a pre-cut mask each to colour as part of the build up, maybe about what it depicts to us? I was given an elephant and had a story ready.
Next, we got into a group discussion and each of us were to say a thing or 2 about about each of us and it was to measure how we expressed ourselves. If you notice the invigilators hard at work trying to guess which one of us were speaking.
I was in awe as the teacher was quite an expressive person for i didn't fare too well in that but scored top marks on independence, connectivity and for being the first one to volunteer for every question. One particular invigilator was so impressed, she gave me a thumbs up with the expression 'you go girl'!
