Kids Get into the Real World through Microplix Theme Parks
Would kids enter into adult real world without hesitation through a theme park for kids? What motivates these kids to work to get what they want? Wasn’t it illegal to let kids work? Of course not, if mommy is just a few feet away.
This is the whole motif of Microplix Theme Park in Madrid, Spain. This park tapped into the kid’s native nature to copy adults and the educational term is modeling. My next question would be- Will this theme park be successful? Will kids pay to enter a theme park just to work? …. And yes play. Work to be able to play.
Yes. I am positively certain that kids would just love to enter into this make-believe world wherein they can be as-if-adults. I see this as an educational theme park for kids. The kids will, have to line-up for their start-up money in the bank and they use it to play or purchase anything or hop unto a kiddie ride and for their car insurance, games they would like to play, license and other stuff in the park.
When they ran out of money they can not ran into mommy and ask for more euros to play around instead they got to apply in the employment offices to work and earn a few dollars. If you are familiar with yoville in Facebook, there are similarities.
They work as models, gas station attendant and perhaps sales lady/man in a store? Yes. That is right. This newest theme park for kids in Madrid, would like to teach kids about importance of money through making them see that a ‘person’ like mom and dad have to work and that money is limited and they got to save and be responsible spender.
As parents, we can see how well we had raised our kids through their smart decision-making inside the park.
