J is for Jungle Jim's! After jumping on our trampoline in the morning, and lunch at Jimmy John's, we went to Jungle Jim's. It's absolutely one of the kids' favorite places to go. They danced with Elvis, watched the lobsters, picked a healthy treat, made wishes while throwing pennies outside at the 'animals', and of course, we got our grocery shopping done. Jungle Jim's rocks!
 |
| The kids made up a game where they throw balls back and forth to each other. They finally outgrew this little trampoline last fall, so now we just have the big one. It was fun while it lasted! |

 |
| This girl loves a turkey sandwich with extra pickle & tomatoes. |
 |
| I love these two! |
 |
| At the Jungle Jim's entrance. |
 |
| Welcomed by Corn & Butter. |
 |
| This guy is a favorite to look at too. |
 |
| Playing with candy toys while waiting for Elvis to start up. |
 |
| Finally, he starts playing, and the kids start dancing! They really enjoy making up moves and dancing to the beat. |
 |
| After all that dancing, we were on the hunt for a healthy snack. T chose kiwis. |
 |
| K chose this red pepper. They munched on them as soon as we got home. |
 |
| More dancing in the aisle, this time by the Cereal Band. This store is so entertaining! |
 |
| Looking at lobsters. |
 |
| T's favorite thing at Jungle Jims, Robin Hood. |
 |
| We always check the Australian section for yummy lollies and treats. We like Caramello Koalas, Freddo Frogs, Violet Crumbles and blue licorice. |
 |
| We settled on these gummy snakes for a future roadtrip, |
 |
| and these gummy letters. |
 |
| Before checking out, the kids wanted to check out this Jungle Jim's history movie. They are in there somewhere! |
 |
| Throwing pennies and making wishes. |
 |
| Every time we walk by the animals in front of Jungle Jim's, I think about my friend Kim telling her kids when they were little, that they were at the zoo. Makes me smile. :) |
J is for Jungle Jim's. What a journey!
