Great Wolf Lodge Cont....

One of the neatest parts of Great Wolf Lodge was the Magiquest game. It's sort of like a scavenger hunt that takes you all around the hotel. To play the game you get a "magic wand" and a clue booklet. The object is to complete certain tasks to earn Runes. There are 8 or 10 different types of runes and after you have earned them all you get to fight the dragon and become a Magi. I'm sure I've explained this all wrong, but basically it turned out to be a ton of fun for Bridget and Patrick. They spent as much time on Magiquest hunts during our stay as we did at the waterpark!


Bridget points her wand at different objects (there are probably more than a hundred throughout the property) and they talk back to her, light up, or open, as this treasure chest does.

A scoreboard listing the top magiquest players. Bridget named her wand "Powerful." She actually came up with that name on her own! Pretty clever for a 4 year-old I thought!

Bridget and I had a special Mommy/daughter date at the Scoops kids spa. I treated Bridget to her very own ice cream pedicure! First she chose her ice cream flavor....they are actually soap balls that fizz in the water. She chose Chocolate.

Then she picked the vanilla scented foot scrub and the chocolate scented foot lotion.

The foot scrub tickles!

Red toenail polish and then a sprinkle of glitter on top and a butterfly sticker.

The pedicure comes with a coupon for a free ice cream cone at the lodge sweet shop. It was hard to wait for the polish to dry!

Ok, here we are at dinner just before heading home. When we ask Avery "are you tough?" this is what she does. Then we all had to have our turn being tough!
Patrick tough.
Emily tough.
Bridget tough!
