For Jaxson's birthday this year, we decided to shy away from toys & such....the kids have so many, and they don't play with them very often, so we decided to look at other avenues. We found a great deal of a first-flight package for iFly (a simulated skydiving experience). We didn't tell Jaxson about it until we showed up in the building....he was uber excited.
Jaxson had to watch a short video, learning the hand signals & how to position your body. After that, he got fitted with a flight suit, ear plugs & goggles.
All the participants filed into the flight chamber & one by one, the flight instructor brought them in & let them have a whack at it. I really liked how they set it up; they split your time up, giving you two chances to fly in the chamber. During the second try, the instructor took each participant up & down the tunnel....so fun to watch!
Jaxson told James & I that we were the BEST.PARENTS.EVER. Thanks bud, we love you too! Happy Sixth Birthday!
