Ball pool! More like germs pool. Andun na lahat. Thousands of balls that never get a wiping. Do you think they wash those balls in disinfectant daily? Weekly? Once a year? Never!

Kahit naka-surgical gloves pa yan natural sa bata ang hand-to-mouth, what they touch they taste, or at the very least ilalagay pa din ng bata ang kamay sa bibig.

Thank you gents. Wifey and I already agreed that indoor parks/playgrounds are not on the list this year.

Disney would be nice, but he's still too young to understand and appreciate all the attractions and activities there. We're planning that for his 7th birthday.

I guess I'll keep looking.

Would the wife want to go to the beach? Yung anak ko kasi, bihira naman namin sya dalhin sa indoor playground. More on nature tripping, particularly maligo sa dagat. Noon takot pa sya lumusong sa tubig pero ngayon sya na nangunguna.

Hmmm how about the National Museum? I heard the they renovated it & it's really nice, but your kid might get bored. Or maybe Museo Pambata or Mind Museum?

One of the best gifts you can give a child is to teach him how to swim. Get him swimming lessons then celebrate his birthday at the beach. Sa subic, tapos pwede magshopping si esmi sa duty free later.

We go to Subic almost every month sir, I have some work there and I often leave them at All-Hands so they can have a day of fun by themselves. Madalas po kami dun, but yes, that is also an option.

I'm not sure he will appreciate the National and also the Mind Museum yet sir, we've also been to Museo Pambata but he wasn't very interested.

I appreciate all your suggestions brothers and fellow fathers.

Is Okada Play any different from the usual indoor playgrounds? From the pix it just looks like one of them.

Short update, I hope I've found a place to stay and visit to meet our specific requirements

Hotel H20 and Manila Ocean Park. The rooms have aquariums and it's right beside the attraction so this will be a first for my son. He loves seeing fishes and all kinds of animals in the wild, so hopefully this will be entertaining to him as well.

Is it still worth seeing the MOP? Haven't been there in years, to be honest.
