Duration: 1 day. Ways of playing: Self-driving, independent travel, weekend tour. The author visited these places: Shanghai. Published on July 21, 2021 at 16:20. Words before the main content. Two lovely little angels have appeared in our lives. My son is four years old and my daughter is nearly two years old. Since having them, our lives have become more complex with all kinds of experiences. Because taking care of kids is a process for us adults to learn to get along with human cubs. Growing up with babies, we witness their happiness, frustration and disobedience. We also learn from it how to be parents. My son has started kindergarten, and my daughter is still in an adorable stage. Both are beloved. We never show favoritism or spoil them. We give them the same love, the same living space, the same education and the same companionship. Usually, we are busy with work, but on weekends, we will definitely take our two lovely babies out to play. Because playing is the nature of children and also an important part of their education. We hope that babies can start to see the world from an early age and cultivate their ability to distinguish right from wrong and deal with people and things. We also hope that they can learn to be strong from games. And for preschool children, all these can be learned from ‘playing’. July is the most beautiful season; July is a season when one can fully blossom; in July, human cubs are on summer vacation~~~ Usually on weekends, we will take our babies to play in shopping malls and in nature. Now that my son is also on vacation, we want them to go crazy. There are too many places suitable for parent-child check-ins in Shanghai. We finally decided to take our babies to Baoyan Paradise and have a crazy day here, sweating heartily, laughing heartily and experiencing heartily. Why focus on Shanghai Baoyan Paradise? First of all, it has an area of about 20,000 square meters. There are five floors in total. Each floor has different amusement items. And most importantly, this is a super-combined parent-child paradise in Shanghai that has an indoor four-season constant temperature water park, a large roof grass skiing project, and at the same time has a petting zoo + slide park + naughty castle park + dynamic VR park + building block park + parent-child restaurant + amusement park + constant temperature water park + outdoor experience park. That is to say, come to Baoyan with kids in the morning. You can eat, drink and play inside. The whole family can have a great time here for a whole day. It’s extremely worthwhile! [Highlight] Preparations before the trip. This part is extremely important. It directly determines whether everyone can have a great time in the paradise. Baoyan Paradise is a comprehensive indoor amusement park. Each floor has a different theme, and of course the ways of playing are also different. You need to prepare some essential items for yourself and your kids. If you don’t bring all the necessary items, you won’t be able to play in many areas after coming. If you forget, you can buy them in the paradise.
Admission Information: The amusement park requires advance booking to ensure a pleasant experience. The ticket includes access to the water park, pet park, and castle park. Essential items: Anti-slip socks for the children, required for the Naughty Castle Park to prevent injuries from slipping and to maintain cleanliness; long-sleeved clothing and pants are necessary for sliding down slides, and it is advisable to wear them throughout the visit as the first floor is dedicated to slide areas, allowing for a change into shorts and t-shirts afterward; for the water park, swimsuits, swim caps, and towels are required, with life jackets or other assistance available for purchase if forgotten; the fifth floor is an outdoor area without air conditioning, so sun protection and heat prevention measures are essential. Baoyan Amusement Park places great emphasis on safety management, paying attention to every detail. In addition to requiring anti-slip socks and long-sleeved clothing, gloves are needed when feeding small animals to ensure the safety of the children, who are the pride of their parents. Thus, visiting Baoyan Amusement Park is truly safe and worry-free. Floor Introduction: 1st Floor: Features a slide park, VR motion park (7D/9D/5D), rainbow corridor, and pet park; 2nd Floor: Features a naughty castle park, block world, nail salon for mothers, bakery, birthday room, bumper cars, Western restaurant, baby rest room, and a happy little stage; 3rd-4th Floors: Four-season constant temperature water park, including rainbow slides, sauna rooms, soaking pools, and other attractions), equipped with male, female, and family changing rooms; 5th Floor: Rooftop sliding grass, children’s horse riding area, outdoor climbing nets, Jurassic adventure, sightseeing train, pirate ship, and carousel. Strong summer recommendations for so many attractions, are you surprised? If you fear a day won’t be enough when bringing children to play, you can focus on a few attractions first. The large slides on the first floor, the large ocean ball pool and block world on the second floor, and the water park on the third and fourth floors. Our children spent their time reasonably well, mainly experiencing these themes, with others played along, entering around 11 in the morning and exiting in the evening, having checked all five floors. Play Strategy: Upon entering Baoyan, we first go to the front desk to exchange tickets. With a large and small child, there is naturally a lot of luggage. After entering with the tickets, there is a designated area for storing baby strollers. To the left of the ticket inspection is the super combination slide park, and to the right is the VR motion park. The slides are suitable for children of all ages, as long as they wear long-sleeved clothing and floor socks. The VR motion park is recommended for children over 5 years old, but it’s also nice to take a few photos when there are not many people around.

The key point is the slide park. This is the iconic internet-famous project of Baoyan Paradise. There are 13 rainbow slides with different slopes. Among them, the blue ocean ball slide with an inclination of about 45 degrees and the red vertical slide with an inclination of about 90 degrees are most popular among children. It only takes 4 seconds to slide from a height of 7.3 meters to the ground. The child is too young to play on the 90-degree vertical slide, but he has played on all the other ones. At the beginning, he was a bit timid and needed his father to accompany him to slide. But after playing more, he became brave and started to entertain himself. As for the daughter, she is too young and can only crawl here for now. Her chubby body twists and turns, which is so cute. Although the daughter is small, she is particularly independent and brave. She is also very happy playing by herself. It can be said that this is an excellent training ground for adults to cultivate children’s courage. In addition to the slide park and the VR dynamic park, there is a place on the first floor that cannot be missed, which is the petting zoo. There are actually lovely small animals here that can be approached. However, the petting zoo is outside the entrance. If you go out, you need to tie a wristband on your arm at the ticket checkpoint so that you can enter and exit. There are more than 50 kinds of small animals in the petting zoo, such as alpacas, raccoons, green parakeets, hedgehogs, hamsters, and long-eared rabbits. Here we can feed the small animals. Especially the alpaca can be said to be the internet-famous animal here. When seeing the fluffy alpaca, the two kids went crazy and scrambled to feed it. At this time, the gloves handed over by the staff of Baoyan Paradise made me truly feel their attentiveness. Which mother would be willing to let her child have an accident? After all, they are all the apples of our eyes. The second floor is an ultra-relaxing naughty castle. There is an endless ocean ball pool here. Inside, there are various small slides, climbing nets, hammocks, and light and shadow magic balls distributed in an orderly manner. The son likes this place very much and keeps shuttling among the ocean balls and other amusement facilities and is reluctant to leave for a long time. As for the daughter, she is too young. When we put her in the ocean balls, only a small head can be exposed. It’s so cute. Look, she is also very happy playing by herself. Looking at the two babies playing so happily, our hearts are also warm. Lunch is settled in the restaurant on the second floor. While the daughter is sleeping soundly, take the son to the building block world on the second floor again. This is an extra-large building block field. Looking from afar, it is like a castle. The son shuttles here, looking for building blocks one by one and painstakingly builds them up. It is also very interesting. After the daughter wakes up, we go to the third floor. This is a large indoor water park with a constant temperature of around 37 degrees all year round. Whether it is sweltering heat or heavy rain, even in the cold winter, parents and children can play in the water here safely. The water quality is also clean.
In the scorching heat of summer, this place becomes the most anticipated spot for us. After changing into swimming gear with the children in the changing rooms, we can dive right into the fun. The water park features a 16 feet high and 105 feet long rainbow slide, as well as dozens of slides of varying lengths suitable for children, with hundreds of water-spraying cartoon figures of plants and animals scattered throughout the shallow water area. When tired from play, there is a hot spring spa pool for relaxation, or one can engage in a water fight at the children’s pool, truly a joyous experience. In fact, this is not just a children’s paradise; adults also revel in the fun here, as they can experience the large slides too. Watching the splashing water, this summer feels truly refreshing! While the son goes off with his father to play on the slides, the daughter can only splash around in the 12 inches shallow water area. The son and father engage in water fights, while the daughter finds it quite suitable to sit on the seesaw in the water. It must be said that this water park not only maintains a constant temperature, but it is also only 12 inches shallow, which is more importantly a place that brings adults and children closer together. I believe this is the essence of family travel—learning and growing alongside our children, encouraging them to become more courageous as they happily grow up with us. After playing in the water and changing clothes, we head up to the fifth floor to take a photo at the outdoor area. The weather is too hot, and the outdoor temperature is high, so the children do not wish to linger for long. However, both children are attracted to the group of dinosaurs, curiously touching and sensing them. Not only does the son like them, but the daughter is also fearless. It seems that when they grow up, they will both love Ultraman. We also experienced the carousel on the fifth floor. Unfortunately, due to the rain, the aerial grass sliding and other projects were not open. It seems this is the meaning of travel—leaving some regrets makes it more beautiful. In the future, we will come back to Baoyan Paradise for these regrets, to experience all the unexperienced projects, which would be wonderful. Practical Tips: 1. There is parking at the entrance, free for the first 4 hours, collect a parking voucher at the front desk, over 6 yuan per hour. 2. Address of Baoyan Paradise Minhang Flagship Store: No. 11, Lane 3825, Dushi Road, Minhang District, Shanghai. 3. Business hours during the summer vacation (July-August): Weekdays 9:30-19:30, Weekends 9:30-20:30, Water Park 11:00-18:00. Note: When children play, they tend to forget themselves and let go. All projects in Baoyan Paradise have a high safety factor, so there is no need to worry about accidents during their experience, but also pay attention to safety when playing, do not slip. In addition, be mindful of cooling down, as children will sweat a lot when they play, so it is important to replenish their water in time.
As the day draws to a close, the joyous moments inevitably seem fleeting. Our visit to the indoor family amusement park has come to an end, and it’s nearly dinner time. On the drive home, the children have fallen asleep, their exhausted forms a testament to their day of play. Despite our own fatigue, our hearts are filled with immense gratification. Throughout the day, we’ve witnessed the children’s determination and their courage to overcome challenges and push their limits—qualities seldom seen at home. This is why outings like these are so essential. To the children, keep up the good work!
