PLAYING

PROFESSIONS

Grade 10

My brother’s school is the school, which really cares about making good

family bounds. In that point, his school named “Prima School” held the family

event where each student’s family members and of course the student itself,

meet and doing an activity or an event together. This event had been held last

Saturday. The event is about visiting Kidzania.

Kidzania is a place like Disneyland appearance where the objects are not

like roller coaster or extreme ship, but it’s more to the recreation park where

children can be pretend as any jobs profession that exist in real life. For example

they could pretend to be a doctor, fireman, Broadway artist, newsreader, or even

just a shoe cleaner. My brother, my sister, and I were really excited about joining

this event.

On the Saturday morning three of us wake up very early and hurrying to

prepare and do packing for joining that event, besides that my brother’s school

group decided to go at 8.30 in the morning, because it will be very crowded in

Kidzania’s registration place when it’s already in the afternoon. Our parent also

joins this event, but they will not play inside the kidzania of course, they will

have lunch in the restaurant near kidzania with the other parents.

As we arrived at 10.00 A.M. at Kidzania, we must to line up to get our

entrance ticket. It can be said it’s quite a long line, even though there’s only one

group in front of us, but their group members are many. After we waited for

around 30 minutes, finally all of our school’s group members could get the

entrance ticket for playing 3 hours. Don’t have to wait, we all been hurried up to

enter the playing park.

At the first time we saw the inside with quick looks, we made quick

judgment. It was an amazing place like there’s a real life going on under the roof,

in rooms. At the first time, we saw racer’s playing park, so we’ll pretend as a

racer and do their job, my brother was the only one who got really excited to do

this job. He’s only 6 years old, but he likes to do sport and racing. So, we play this

job profession. After around15-20 minutes we play this game, over and over

again, my sister and me decided to go to play another job profession, but my

brother didn’t want to go. We have quite long discussion about this, but then we

decided that my sister and I would be play another job profession and left my

brother to play the racer profession, over and over again or he could go to

another job profession, but near the racer profession, and then we left to tried

another profession.

It was a brilliant theme park for kids. It shows the participant how the

jobs in real life looks like. We played doctor profession, hairdresser profession,

broadways profession, newsreader profession, and many more. The play park is

also providing the bank for kids, so the money that we’ve got from our job

profession would be save there (of course it’s a toy money). It also for saving our

money, if next time we would come to Kidzania, we already had the money, so

we don’t start from the beginning. We also can enjoy treatments like real foods

and entertaining shows from the money that we’ve got from playing the job

professions. We enjoyed playing there and we almost forgot if we’re only got

time 3 hours for playing, and our time for playing only 15 minutes left.

We decided to meet our brother in the racer’s playing park. We go directly

there after we save our money in the bank. We arrived there and we’re looking

for our brother, but we did not found him anywhere in that playing area. We go

to look for another playing job professions near the racer’s playing park. We

didn’t found him anywhere there. We started to panic, because our playing time

only left for 5 minutes and after that we should go out from there. We decided

then, to go to the operator room to announce our lost brother. On our way to

operator room, we heard voices of announcement.

“For who those named Laras and Rolla from Bekasi, your brother is

looking for you in the operation room. Thank you.”

We look at one another and then laughed. He is clever enough to be a lost

boy. We fasten our steps and enter the operator room. We see him there and

thank the operator people. We get out from Kidzania and tell the parents what

happened, they’re giggled and gives clap for our brother cleverness. That was

our family unforgettable event. We look for another time to get back there and

experiencing another experience.
