We’re not usually fans of shopping malls – give us a day outside over a shopping trip anytime. But when errands can’t wait, the Panorama Mall has been a decent option, especially with kids. Their rest area for little visitors on the 2nd floor has been a helpful find for us.
The space has a lot going for it: a kitchenette for warming snacks, private nursing cabins, a changing room, toddler-sized toilets, and a cozy play area for kids. It’s free and open daily from 10:00 to 21:00, which makes it convenient for quick pit stops.
However, we can’t help but feel disappointed by the addition of a screen in this area. Instead of encouraging active play or creativity, the screen feels like a lazy distraction. Especially since the play area itself is quite small, it would’ve been so much better to have more space for climbing, exploring, or interactive toys. It’s a missed opportunity to create a space that truly caters to little ones' needs.
While it’s a useful stop during errands, it’s not without its flaws.
