Dodge's First Visit to Chuck E Cheese's

For one of our summer activities this year we thought we would take Dodge to Chuck E Cheeses, because he has never been. I personally think that there are three places a kid has to go before they hit their young adult years, Disney World, Six Flags, and Chuck E Cheese's. When I was a little girl, my father took me to Disney world, and my mother took me to Six Flags. I remember how much I loved going to those amusement parks, and how much fun I had. My kids have been to a couple of festivals and carnivals, but this year was the first time they all been to an amusement park, including Dodge. Anyway, this story is not about me, but it is about Dodge and how much fun he has had this summer with us. When we first got to Chuck E Cheese's the first thing we did was take some fun pictures outside of the building. Dodge did not seem to like that very much. He had built up all this energy to go and have fun on the rides and games, the last thing he wanted to do was take pictures. After about 10 minutes of taking pictures outside, Dodge began to get impatient and asked, "Is it time to go in and have some fun." I knew he had been patiently waiting to go in and see what was waiting for him. The other kids had already been to Chuck E Cheese's before, so they knew about all the games, tokens, pizza, and rides. When we finally got in, Dodge eyes lit up with excitement, it was like christmas morning for him. He was so confused though, he did not know which ride to get on first, or what game he wanted to play. But he finally chose a game. The first game he played, he played a racecar game with Austin. They seemed to enjoy it alot. Once they got tired of that, they headed over to a airlift ride. Dodge really enjoyed that. He laughed and laughed some more on that ride. I think the game he had the most fun on was the tossing ball game. For this game the person has to insert a token and they then recieve 9 balls; so they get 9 chances to get this ball into several slots that are labeled, 10,000, 30,000, 50, 000, and 100,000. Depending on which ever slot the ball falls in will determine how much tickets you will receive. Dodge really liked this game, and he was good at it. Sometimes the ball would miss and sometimes he would through the ball so high that it would go up in the air. It was funny; it looked dangerius too. I really thought someone was going to get hurt, so I convinced him to play another game. Eventually we all ran out of tokens, so we went to cashed in our tickets to see how much we all got. I had the most; I got 589 tickets. All the kids were begging for my tickets so that they could get something, but I decided to hold on to them for future events. Traneice did not do to bad either, she received 96 tickets. I thought that was good for her age. After we all got out count for our tickets we all got a bag of cotton candy, and Dodge got his everywhere. His hands were really sticky. And that was Dodge's First time at Chuck E Cheese's.
