Enter the 2008 Guinness Book of World Record's Largest Maze, located at the Dole Plantation in Wahiawa, HI. While not made of leftover corn husks, this maze gave us a serious run for our money. Not only a maze, but also a bit of a scavenger hunt (with a timed card to boot), the point of the maze is to "collect" all the various stencil markings available at 8 different spots with the maze.
It has been neat to see how my kids are beginning to fight for being in charge now that little miss is getting bigger. For the biggest portion of the maze, we allowed our Life Scout to lead the way.
Once we were down to only one remaining stencil, we let our girl lead the line. It was a HOOT to watch her be large and in charge.
Of course, if you know anything about my husband, you know that really, he's always in charge. And so, taking shortcuts (or cheating) to beat the kids was his MO more than once.
In the end, we all had a lot of fun and were able to collect all 8 stencils. We definitely didn't do it in record time, but then again, no one else had a 4 year old on their course.

Of course, there is much more to be seen from our trip that I look forward to sharing (so I hope you come back)! In the meantime, I'm always excited and honored to share the work of the ladies I am lucky enough to be in this circle with. Up next is Margaret Albaugh, Spokane Photographer. Make sure to show her some love.
Until next time,
This maze looks like so much fun! And of course Dad is the one taking the shortcuts- I think that is part of the dad code. I hope you guys had a fantastic vacation!
ReplyDeleteFor sure the Dad code! And we did have a ton of fun!
DeleteMelissa, this looks like so much fun. Your first photo had me laughing. Your daughter is so cute!
ReplyDeleteYou know that was happenstance girl. She was trying to get ahead of brother and about went head over heels. I just thought it was the perfect shot to share!!!
DeleteWhat do you do with the stencils? Are they pumpkin stencils? Sounds like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteI wish they were pumpkin stencils! They were just stencils that you drew on your map of the maze, so we have proof that we were able to find them all. Lol
