MAGI QUEST (4 2/3 YRS OLD)
At Great Wolf Lodge, one of the games that the children can play is a magical scavenger hunt, called "Magi Quest." There are several quests, probably over ten, and several adventures, like killing the dragon, through out the hotel. (BTW, Magi Quest is a game franchise, found all over the United States www.magiquest.com.)
Ella was adament to get a magical wand, that she saw other children wave around. Actually, momma could understand how it was so fascinating. When other kids wave their wands, they got inanimate objects, like paintings and books to talk or treasure chest to open, and torches to light up. Sarah also caught Ella's enthusiasm, so momma and daddy gave in and bought each one a wand and bought into the scavenger hunt.
Each quest required that Ella and Sarah had to find certain objects on any of the seven floors of the hotel in a certain order. The good things about the games were that the kids were fascinated about all the different magical objects, some hidden and some in just plain sight. But, for parents, the quests were difficult.
Getting Ella and Sarah to find objects in a particular order was hard. It was also hard for them to stay focus. The talking tree (ie. the main computer) often was slow to respond, beyond the wait time of a four or five year old. Probably, the most tiring part was that the magi could not take the wands on the elevator, which was one of the rules of the game. It was clear to momma that was to make sure that the hotel guests were clear of kids going up and down on it. But, climbing up and down seven floors (approximatley 14 flights of stairs) was tiring. It did a good job of wearing out both kids and parents.
In the end, both Ella and Sarah got to fight the dragon. Both Ella and Sarah will also say that their favorite things about the holiday were their wands, the scavenger hunt, and the water slides (not necessarily in that order). They wore their wolf cub ears everywhere in and out of the hotel and often had their wands in tow too. So all in all, it was a good investment.
