If you wish to fight the heat of the summer months on the coast….this might be a good idea!

The Parque Acuatico Mijas is a great alternative to the beach…kids absolutely love it!!

It has different areas for differet age groups. For smaller children you have a shallow pool with a crocodile and water fountains. Also  a deeper area with some small slides and elephants that splash you with water. For older children and adults there are proper fast slides, donut slides and a lot more activities as well.

They offer lots of discounts for families….so please visit their site for their current entrance prices and opening hours.

I went to La Cañada this morning and driving around (trying to find a parking space) I came across a new play area in the making!!! It’s right next to the pet shop at the end and it looks really nice. It still needs a bit of work before it is finished but I thought it was a great thing that there are more play areas opening soon around Marbella.

We will keep you posted and let know when it opens, as soon as we have the information…..

My son went to a party in Benahavis village on Saturday night and I have to say I think they had the best balloon sculptor (if thats what you call them) and face painter I have ever come across, well so far anyway!

The guy who did the Balloons was great, all the boys were queuing up for their spider man balloons, even the piñata was made of Balloons.

The lady who did the face painting was amazing as well, all the girls had the most beautiful designs with really intricate flowers and the boys had the best batman masks I have seen.

I am not 100% sure on the cost for these pair but i am of the understanding that they are not expensive at all and definitely well worth the money!
