What could be more fun with a one year old than Toddler Tuesday at the local Aquarium?
How could this watery world of wonder not mystify, astound and entertain a toddler, I hear you ask?
Well.
It doesn’t.
It just makes them angrier.
And faster.
And louder.
In public…

| So… they’re fish… I don’t get it… However this milk buys you six minutes of silence mother… clever move… |
|
| If I pretend to be asleep can we leave? |
|
| I can see this is going to take a while. Remove me from my buggy immediately or I will bite through this foam bar and punch an otter. We both know I’m not joking. |
|
| I’m FREEEEEE. F*@k the fish. I’ve found some steps, a yellow warning cone and a fire escape, and I am gonna seriously shit up your day. |
|
| I’ve found the exit… now to use my coat to ‘lasso’ my way outta this fishy-hell-hole. Reminds me of that time I escaped from your vagina… |
|
| OK. You’ve got me back inside. Now I’m going to lick this glass until you give me the Twix I just saw you put in your pocket. |
|
| I actually expected more of a fight – You’re so weak. I can see why you drink now. To block out how shit you are at this. |

I have held off taking my wee man to the aquarium actually. I think it would probably be a bit dark and scary for him…he is a bit like that and might not appreciate it just yet. Was it really so bad for you guys?
ReplyIt was ok – but she literally spent 10 minutes in her buggy, 10 minutes looking at fish and the rest of the time running and shouting as loud as she could… At one point they did a toddler rock pool encounter… which resulted in her trying to climb in the bucket and escape out the front door. I needed a lie down afterwards! She definitely wasn't scared though! 😉 xx
Replyyou are so right. It's like an added, watery, circle of hell.
Replyexactly. I have no idea why I ever thought leaving the house to do anything would be better than staying at home and pretending everything is fine. Which it is… *nervous laugh* 😉
ReplyHa! Nightmare stage. Stay strong 🙂
ReplyI will. With the help of #gin… Ha! Xx
ReplyMy experience was identical to yours with my oldest daughter. Have made a note to self to not repeat same escapade until second daughter can go there, old enough to buy her own ticket. That should save the nerves of myself and the staff….
Replyhaha – yes, I'm waiting until they're old enough to go by themselves… #sorted lol x
