THE GET DOWN
Welcome to Little Mexico – walk out onto these colorfully decorative, merchant filled, festive streets and step into a world of amazement.
On Olvera Street you’ll find interesting nook, toy, food or dance every which way you turn. Stay clear if you have a runner though. The first time I went with Capri she was a rebel without a cause for real.
Grabbing toys, trying on shoes, running after the churro man (I kid I kid ) It’s way too much stimulation for those tots with no self control.
But if you are looking for a true Mexican experience without crossing the border, Olvera Street is a cultural explosion of festivities for the whole family to
enjoy.

For those with little
runners & screamers:
Easily forgiven:
Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.
Not promoted, but you should take the chance:
If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.
Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:
I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.
No contained area:
A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.
Enclosed, but space is tight:
If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
