When visiting Aulani with 3 to 12 year old kids, you will most definitely be visiting Aunty’s Beach House! Probably a lot. Honestly, it’s a great place for the kids. There is never a dull moment in this amazing 5200 Square Foot play area. Complete with childcare professionals, indoor and outdoor play areas and more. Once inside your kids will become a part of Aunty’s O’hana (family).
Let’s take a stroll over through Aulani to Aunty’s Beach House together. We can peer in the windows to see what the kids are up to together. I’m sure Aunty won’t mind a bit.
Let’s tell the cast members at check in what we’re up to though. No one gets in or out of this area without express permission and a signed agreement. These kids are their responsibility and they do not take it lightly. Be prepared to provide a safe word to get your kids out, as well as your kids wrist band to sign in and out with. After a few days the cast members may know you, but that won’t mean they will let up on the security that is there for the kids protection. I for one appreciate knowing this.
If we look into the first room we see young boys and girls dressed in costumes acting out their favorite Disney movies. I see Sleeping Beauty and her Prince, Belle and Prince Adam, and much more. Some are even acting out on a the stage.
The first time my son ventured into the club he found these great interactive tables. So many games to play and adventures just loaded into these electronic tables. The amount of activities just programmed into these 4 tables is more than anyone can expect. Beyond that Aunty’s Beach House has a room dedicated to showing movies. Pull up a bean bag and relax to your favorite Disney Movie. Or head over to the Wii and Playstation room to play your favorite games, Disney inspired of course.
Near the back of Aunty’s Beach House is a “kitchen” area. This was where the kids could do cooking classes, or science experiments or play with supervision of course. One of the favorite activities was when the kids got into white lab coats, put on safety googles and made Stitch’s Space Goo. That was an experience in itself. Another day they made Flubber, which personally I think was the same as Stitch’s Space Goo but a new color is all. You can also experience Eruption Disruption Volcanic Science. I think the name says it all on that one.
Your kids can learn some of the local Hawaiian arts and crafts making. Create their own lei, or a pupu shell necklace. Local artisans spent time teaching the staff how to continue the old traditions of jewelry and ornamentation making. Let your kids learn these long held traditions in the safety of Aunty’s Beach House!
Aunty’s Beach House offers a vast array of programs, most are complimentary, but a few are “premium” programs. This means they cost extra money. For example, the Fish Are Friends program is a 3 hour long program that teaches kids how the animal specialists train, feed and take care of all the marine life located at Aulani. They get to experience the marine life up close and personal as well as learn how to prepare the food and feed them. Included with the experience is a copy of the “Disney Oceans” DVD and other take away items. A Must do for any budding Marine Biologists.
Let me highlight some of the other programs quickly for you. Aunty’s Beach House has Character Visits, Hula lessons, Story Time, Games, Hawaiian Learning Experiences, Mini-Canoe making and races, and so much more. There is so much to see and do at Aulani. If there are any adult adventures you want to experience, your kids will not be disappointed by hanging out with Aunty! I could barely get my son to leave Aunty’s Beach House. It’s that great!
