Smart Park

Around a week ago we visited Smart Park in Eckerö on Åland with Chiara's cousin with family. We were really lucky with the weather because it was sunny and around 20-22 degrees Celsius. Perfect weather for different activities. I think that they had a good mix of things to do, and it was also nice to stroll around there among the different activities. Chiara and her cousin are around 3,5 years old, and there were plenty of things that were fun for them. They tested almost all the outdoor activities, and liked many of them. I think that Chiara's favourites were the pedal car cross, cross carts, the electric cars, the rope course and the Battle of Bomarsund. In between the activities we had an ice cream in the sun, but you can also choose to eat in the restaurant or café.

För cirka en vecka sen besökte vi Smart Park i Eckerö på Åland med Chiaras kusin med familj. Vi hade verkligen tur med vädret eftersom det var soligt och cirka 20-22 grader. Perfekt väder för olika aktiviteter. Jag tycker att de hade en bra blandning av aktiviteter, och det var också trevligt att promenera omkring bland de olika områdena. Chiara och hennes kusin är cirka 3,5 år, och det fanns många saker som passade dem. De testade nästan alla utomhusaktiviteter och gillade många av dem. Jag tror att Chiaras favoriter var crosscart, trambilscross, de elektriska bilarna, vajerbanan och Bomarsund. Mellan aktiviteterna åt vi en glass i solskenet, men du kan också välja att äta i restaurangen eller kaféet.

A summary with some pros and cons:
​
+ Many activities
+ A nice environment
+ Children in different ages can have fun together
+ Quite good prices for lunch (even though we didn't test it)

- For some children I think that a playground with picnic is probably just as fun
- Lots of small houses that require lots of maintenance, very nice now, but I hope they will take good care of them

En sammanfattning med plus och minus:

+ Många aktiviteter
+ Trevlig miljö
+ Barn i olika åldrar kan ha kul tillsammans
+ Ganska bra priser för lunch (även om vi inte testade den)

- Tror att en lekplats med picknick förmodligen är lika rolig för vissa barn
- Massor av små hus som kräver mycket underhåll, väldigt fint nu, men jag hoppas att de kommer att vara noga med underhållet
