It always surprised me how many kids said "No, I just want to play today" and their parents signed them up anyway

Ugh, I see that too. Or they promise "We can leave in just a few minutes if you really don't like it", but then they never leave, even as the kid gets more and more antsy and whiny!

Or, and this is my pet peeve, parents who rush their kids through every exhibit in the museum, because "We don't have much time and I want you to see as much as possible", so every time the kid gets settled into playing in one area, they make the kid move on. Guys! It's about quality, not quantity! If they want to spend the whole day painting, let them! Perserverence is a quality you're trying to teach kids, for crying out loud!

This would have to be a special day out with just Deniz, so I'm debating doing it or not. Or else I'd have to have two adults.
