This Saturday after we picked Kyrie up from OGLS (Ohio German Language School) we headed to Oktoberfest. We volunteered to work in the Kinderplatz to help spread the word about OGLS. Darren & I each worked a 2-hour shift at the "Wild Birds" (think Angry Birds) game. I took the first shift while Darren took the kids to get food and play in the Kinderplatz. Then we switched so that I could eat & play with the kids.
Though I think that we were both a little worried about how the afternoon would go (we had never been to Oktoberfest before), we had a lot of fun working the game and spending time with the kids enjoying the Kinderplatz. Though the food & drink tickets were a little pricey, the Kinderplatz was free and full of activities for the kids: a big craft tent, several bouncy houses, a hand-pedal train and live shows. Four hours flew by quickly and we went home with bags full of crafts.
