New Children's Play Area At Brea Mall

Last month was full of fun for Halloween but one of the best things I have ever experienced in my life was the balloon drop for the grand opening of the new children's play area at Brea Mall.  It definitely makes my top ten list of awesome things I experienced this year.  And trust me, I've done some awesome things this year.  My child who loves Brea Mall for the Apple store, Game Stop and Auntie Anne's now has another reason to beg me to take him to the mall - the new play area has comfy, surrounding seating and get this - charging stations.  Add that to the mall's free wifi and I am sold!

Features of the new play area which is located on the lower level in front of Macy's:  a play house featuring a chalk board, and various cars, boats and plane play fixtures inspired by the Simon Kidgits Club characters.   The new area also has new Family Restrooms, which feature five changing stations, two nursing rooms and amenities for both adults and children.

There are a lot of fun things happening - stay informed by following Brea Mall on Twitter and Facebook!

Radio Disney & Raini Rodriguez Take Over Macy's

I gotta give it to the parents that took their kids to meet Raini Rodriguez of Disney Channel's Austin & Ally this past Saturday at Macy's in Brea.  I got there about 15 minutes till 2pm and it was absolutely wild!  The line was super long and all the kids were so excited!  Radio Disney kept the crowd hyped up with good tunes!  I got a chance to chitchat with a few parents and learned some of them were there for over four hours!  WOW!  Raini came out right on time and the kids went CRAZY!  I asked some girls if it was worth the wait and they looked at me like I was crazy!  What a fun last day of Summer for parents and their kids to spend together!  We checked out Macy's must-have looks for boys and girls and with any $35 Kids purchase, you would get an exclusive Macy's school lunch bag!  

Did your parents ever take you to meet your favorite celebrity?
Would you take your kid to meet their favorite celebrity?

Ooo the anticipation!

The Radio Disney crew was very cool!
