Summer in San jose, Costa Rica

Today I decided to get back to writing again, may be because I finally started to have some free time I can use to document the beautiful journey we are enjoying as a family.

Eleanora started to have a schedule for her naps and a quite early bed time that makes me feel MUCH better actually :)

This is our 2nd week here in San jose, Costa Rica for our 2 months audit with my husband. Though we don't have many options here to enjoy the day but we kind of managed to keep ourselves busy so far.

Here are some notes if you are traveling to san jose with a baby:-

1-Baby food:-
Here they have a Walmart store where you can find a large variety of baby food, specialy the smoothies; here you have the gerber, Heinz and some other local brands. The only negative thing is they only have them in fruits, no veggies.

You can also get the baby snacks here in a lot of varieties; in any supermarket.

2-Baby products:-

In terms of toys or any baby necessity, you can easily find them in the Multiplaza shopping center, the ground floor has a lot of baby stores as well as the third floor in SIMAN department store.

3-Activities:-

If you are planning to stay in San jose itself for a while, you can go crazy with a baby, after all they need a place to get all their energy out (what can we say; they are just babies :) )

Luckily you have several options here:-

• Multiplaza shopping centre " www.multiplaza.com"

In the Multiplaza you have about 3 main play areas, the biggest is located inside SIMAN department store in the third floor (they also have a small cafe if you would like a quick snack while ur baby is playing)

In the ground floor they have 2 smaller play areas at each end of the mall.

• Avenida Escazu "www.avenidaescazu.com"

 At this place they have some activities for kids; they have cooking classes, art classes and more. Basically these activities change monthly so you will have to check their website for updated schedule.  

Also in Avenida Escazu they have an open air play area with a lot of options for toddlers as well as older kids.

4- Baby clothes:-

They have a lot options as well, you can find Carter's, Justice  and all your favorite brands at SIMAN department store.

 I hope these notes will be helpful :)
