Fun Rules at #FunRanch San Fernando Pampanga!
After becoming a parent myself, I realized that when traveling with toddlers and tweens, choosing the right destination is really important. The place should offer hands-on activities, where good memories can be built so as to avoid the dreaded “I want to go home!” remark.
Accessibility is one thing too, also with a certain "wow" factor that you'll know when you see it on your children's faces
For years now, Fun Ranch still tops my list of being the ultimate kid-friendly destination because they have all that, with a combined indoor and outdoor exciting hands-on activities that elevates activeness.
My blogger friends and I made a road trip to Pampanga a few weeks ago for the opening event of my favorite place mentioned above.
Aside from the food scene, the City of Pampanga now provides places that will surely give entertainment to kids and kids at heart.
One of them is the recently opened 3rd branch of Fun Ranch located in the city of San Fernando. If you've never been to this province at all, now's the right time to visit as it will surely bring the whole family lots of pure fun. And travelling there is easy.
The FUN RANCH itself provides 3 sub facilities, all of which are now under one roof. The parents can stay in the restaurant located at the center and overlooking their kids as they enjoy the 3 areas without any hassle.
We first headed to the mini Fun Ranch, which is more like the Playdium in Ortigas. But this one has 12 different slides with one clear portion called the roller slide.
Also they've situated 4 ball pits and a see-through giant one with 50000 multi-colored balls inside. If only I brought my kids with me, they will surely enjoy and jump into the pool of balls repeatedly at their heart's content.
When the managers from Alabang and Ortigas saw the set up in the Pampanga branch, they immediately asked the directors to fix up their place similar to it. And from what I heard, They are now planning to set 100,000 balls in Ortigas branch.
And for the snacks, You wont have any problem with it as they provide full and complete set of best tasty meals yet affordable.
We visited next the second sub facility, my kids' favorite ~ LAZERMAXX.
This is an indoor play where players blast their way of fun in a fast-paced game using laser guns and tagging their opponent with lasers to earn points and allowing them to feel like sci-fi heroes while guarding their group base and positions.
My kids already tried this fun fun game at the Greenhills branch and I tell you, they did not want to stop. You can read my experience here and become a lazermaxx expert yourself : http://www.stuckwith3.com/2016/05/how-to-become-lazermaxx-master-lasertag.html
They have the latest equipment in Pampanga branch that said to come straight from Australia. The area can accommodate up to 24 players at one time.
When we went inside, we saw a 2-level facility that patterned towards the game counterstrike, if You're familiar with it. Black lights were used in the room and with padded walls throughout.
Since Pokemon came back to this generation's spotlight, they used the characters name for the laser guns with designated colors for each team and after the battle, the names will be displayed on the monitor as a score board to see which player gained the highest score and which team won. I got the "Rattata" laser gun if I remembered it correctly. Score cards will be given to you for souvenirs after the game.
The place can be used for team buildings as well.
Our last stop was Jump Yard, which is considered to be the largest trampoline park in the Philippines.
The Jump Yard Pampanga may not be as huge as the Ortigas branch, but it provides 82 trampolines and can accommodate more people compared with the latter.
On this new branch, they were able to improve the facility better, making it wider with less pillars. The area of the Olympic trampoline is more spacious too, giving more room to guests for selfies and stuff.
They also created Toddler's area for kids ages 3 to 5 to avoid accidents caused by bumping or pushing of adults against the toddlers while having a blast at Jump Yard. After creating that space in Pampanga and seeing the great feedback, they immediately made similar playground in Ortigas.
For those who love to do selfies, Jumpyard created a special place for that as well. It is a foam selfie pit at the middle of the area so you don't have to worry about being jumped on while doing the selfie thing. Cool, eh?
And inside it, they offer this mini basketball area wherein the shooting hoops are right next to each other and the player should start from the end of the court to play with the first ring/hoop before proceeding to the next ring. One should be able to at least perfect a dunk for each ring which is the main objective of this game. And before playing, one must watch the safety video provided and do warm ups.
They hired the 8th time Palarong Pambansa champion, Coach Lemuel - just for you. The briefing takes only around 5 minutes or less.
Fun Ranch also provides 3 function rooms for party planning. The smallest room can occupy a maximum of 120 people while the Festival and celebration room can occupy up to 230 and 250 respectively. Both the second and third room mentioned can occupy up to 500 combined.
No need to worry about the safety of the kids for the staff had underwent Red Cross First Aid training and they have a nurse on sight. There are first aid equipment, a special Stretcher, wheelchair that are readily available. The welfare of the guests has always been their primary concern.

There is no other place I'd like to spend an entire week just playing around with the Shrek team, more than Fun Ranch. If you haven't visited yet, put it on your list and make sure you get there soon and slide, jump, and blast your way into an awesome day of activities :)
