7 top things for kids to do in Hawaii

Well, I heart Hawaii like I ALWAYS say, so if you go to Hawaii, this is what you should do! (If you are a kid or if you have kids)
My mom also has this on her blog, so... if you want to you could just check it out: nodoors

1. DISCOVERY CENTER. It has these little places where you can learn and play. The first floor is where you learn about heartbeats and stomachs, basically the whole human body. The second floor is the history of Hawaii, how the people came here by boat and plane and the different kinds of people that lived here. Then you could pretend to make wooden leis and pretend to cook or ride a fake tiny jeep. You can learn about different countries by picking up a telephone and listening, or watching and listening and observing and exploring. You can see how they lived back then, with all the cafes, and stores and there's even an old cashier!
2. WET'N'WILD WATERPARK. It is so super fun! You ride all these rides, and there's even a wave pool where you can surf in the waves, and there's this awesome ride called 'TORNADO' its when you ride (NEVER ALONE) in this big floatie and hold on tight, then you go around in the tunnel then... DROP! don't worry, it's not so scary if you scream so LOUD and hold on TIGHT and close your EYES. then you swoosh up and down and up and down and end up in a knee-deep pool of water. then there is this other ride where you lie down on a mat (DEFINITELY ALONE) and go around in a green tube, then you swoosh down in a yellow tube, then you swoosh down again on an orange SLIDE, NO TUBE, and then you swoosh forward in a red slide. Also, there is SHAKA. You and a partner sit down and hold on tight to a big floatie and go down a steep ledge. It's only one drop, then you just go swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
3. BISHOP MUSEUM. The last time I went here, I was five and now I'm older. Yeah, older. okay? So I don't really remember it... so maybe if you go there you could comment and tell me what it's like? So, yeah.
4. APARTMENT OR HOTEL. This is for me, because i totally heart my apartment here, so all I would like to do is watch TV on this fluffy green L-shaped couch. So technically you don't have to do this.
5. the LIBRARY. it is AWESOME. this is why: because if your kid is four or below, she or he could listen to a storytelling and do artwork. Except i don't know if they still do that because on this trip, I HAVEN'T GONE THERE YET.
6. the HONOLULU ZOO. You can squash a penny to get a remembrance and you can see the animals and go to the Keiki Zoo, i think that's what it's called, because you can crawl in to tunnels like into the middle of an aquarium or into a hamster hole and you pretend you're a hamster by going in this kid of cage in the center of the whole cage. you can sight hamsters from in there. don't worry, it's totally safe.
6. WAIOLA SHAVED ICE. this is the BEST in the whole entire WORLD. It is softer than snow and silk. it is tastier than anything you've ever tasted. and you must try this: rainbow with vanilla ice cream at the bottom. don't, though, don't mix it all up, just spoon or lick it up little by little, but not to slow. Just before it and the ice cream melts to nothing.

that's it! and now to put another link: cool thoughts by coolio
