2. DIY Chocolate Workshop 👩🍳
For 98 RMB, kids can make their own chocolate! Cute molds like bears 🐻, cars 🚗, stars ⭐, and they get serious squeezing chocolate sauce with gloves on. After making, they can even engrave their name. At home, kids proudly show dad “I made this!” (Mom sneaks a taste, the sea salt flavor is insanely good 👍)
3. Non-powered Parent-Child Playground 🎡
Free! Free! Free! Huge climbing net, rainbow slide 🌈, small swings, plus interactive water-spraying devices 💦. Kids run wild like little ponies 🐎 chasing others, while moms can relax under the shade and play on their phones 📱, finally a break~
4. Flower Sea Mini Train 🚂
A must-ride for kids multiple times! The vintage mini train slowly passes through a field of verbena flowers, spraying sweet chocolate fragrance 💨. When the breeze blows, the purple flower waves are super soothing~ Cartoon characters wave midway 🤖, kids wave back crazily through the window, giggling nonstop 😄
5. Cocoa Forest Greenhouse 🌴
See cocoa pods growing on trees inside a glasshouse! Staff cut one open on the spot for kids to see, the orange-red pulp is sweet and tangy. Kids lick their fingers then play with cocoa beans (don’t worry, staff provide wet wipes 🧻). Learning while playing, moms quietly think “This is totally worth it” 🥳
6. Chocolate Museum Interactive Zone 🎮
Interactive projections designed for kids! Stepping on chocolate patterns on the floor changes their colors ✨, and they can “catch” virtual cocoa beans falling down. Kids don’t want to leave~ When the 3D chocolate rain effect appears, kids jump excitedly to catch it, laughter fills the whole hall hahaha 😆

📸 Photo spots for kids:
▫️Rainbow Castle stairs: Let kids run up and down to capture dynamic shots, skirts fluttering so lively 👗
▫️Giant chocolate sculpture: Hold the chocolate stick bought in the shop for photos, perfect for foodies 🍫
▫️Mini train flower sea section: Take side shots of kids from the train window with purple flower sea background, guaranteed to explode your social media likes 💥
▫️Night light show: Starts at 7:30 PM, stand with kids in front of the castle, warm light on faces feels super cozy 🌟

🍴 Food recommendations that kids will happily eat:
✅ Kids’ set meal: Bear-shaped rice + cocoa juice + cherry tomatoes, so cute kids don’t want to eat it, 38 RMB/set, great value 👍
✅ Chocolate marshmallow: 10 RMB/skewer, marshmallow wrapped in chocolate crisp, kids nibble nicely 😋
✅ Freshly baked chocolate cookies: The aroma attracts kids, 20 RMB/box, they eat and play without fuss 🍪
✅ The restaurant has high chairs! Has baby utensils! And hot water (moms with formula know this feeling 😭)

💡 Warm tips for bringing kids:

1. Definitely bring a change of clothes! The non-powered playground has water sprays, kids get soaked playing wildly, changing keeps them warm 👕
2. Wear non-slip shoes! Climbing nets can rub feet, sandals slip off easily, sneakers are safest 👟
3. Bring a foldable stroller! The park is big, kids can nap when tired, and you can carry chocolates and toys 🛒
4. DIY workshop recommended around 10 AM! Fewer people, no waiting, kids have the most energy and fun then ⏰
5. Visit the non-powered playground at dusk! Too hot in the afternoon, sunset is cooler, kids can play an extra hour 🌇

🏡 Recommended accommodations for families:
▶️ Stargazing tents inside the park: 399 RMB/night, with private bathroom, watch stars at night, kids count stars quietly in the tent 🌌
▶️ Yunlan Bay Hot Spring Hotel: 10 minutes by car, includes breakfast for two + hot spring tickets, soak in hot springs after playing, sleep soundly at night ♨️

For real! This place truly offers a relaxed experience with kids, no crying or tantrums, plus learning opportunities. At home, kids keep saying “Let’s go to Chocolate Town again”~ Sisters with kids, hurry up and go, it’s definitely the ultimate hands-free kid-friendly spot! Let’s go 🚀
