🧸 @kawaiiklaws_tx Claw Machine Store 🧸

📍 11200 Lakeline Mall Dr, Cedar Park
Inside Lakeline Mall, right above the play area. Park at Dillards.

@kawaiiklaws_tx is a store filled with claw machines! My kids love claw machines and were very excited to try this out. We played for about 30 minutes and they each won 2 toys.

🧸The toys were actually really good quality. I feel like most claw machines give you garbage toys, but these are super nice! You can also save your little toys and trade them in for giant toys. The selection is great as well. They have machines that are fun for a wide range of ages and interests.

🧸Like any claw machines, these can be hard! We found some were more challenging than others. Spoiler alert: the more “baby” the machine, the easier it was. The Cookie Monster was the easiest to win. I keep thinking back to the Bluey episode Magic Claw, where the kids get bored when mom makes the game too easy, but love to play when dad makes it more of a challenge. Another pro tip: the claw will drop the toy at the top, so we built the toys up into a tower to make it easier. This requires a lot of money! Be prepared to spend around $20 per toy.

🧸My boys definitely got frustrated but that made winning all the more fun when they actually got one. Definitely check this place out if you like claw machines!

@zedsicecream

📍 1814 Harvey St, Austin

We’ve always loved Zed’s but now it’s even better! Two new food trucks and a fully fenced turfed play area for kids! Plus more shaded seating! 🙌

Honestly, I can’t think of anything better than tacos, burgers, ice cream, and a place for the kids to run around. 😋
