5 Theme Parks Johor Bahru

Want to go for a theme park trip during the weekend or long school holiday in Malaysia with your family or friends?

But you find that flight tickets are too expensive?

 

5 Best Johor Theme Parks To Discover

1. Fanpekka Theme Park (Brand New Johor Theme Park)

Fanpekka Theme Park has recently opened its doors to the public in the AEON Tebrau City shopping mall, Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

The first Finnish conceptual theme park in Asia, Fanpekka is designed on the idea that children learn by playing.

Learning problem-solving and global communication skills are pillars of the Finnish educational curriculum, and they are pristinely integrated into the design of Fanpekka. The park is the first of its kind in Southeast Asia.

Fanpekka Johor Entrance in Aeon Mall Tebrau City

Fanpekka was designed for families, with children aged 2 to 12 specifically targeted. The play area’s convenient location within the shopping centre allows children a light-hearted respite while on an outing with the family.

The 27,500 square foot playground is divided into four main sections, each focusing on providing relaxation while nurturing the mind, body, and soul.

Tonttu, named after a Finnish fairy tale, transports children to a world of magic and mystique.

Fanpekka in Aeon Tebrau City Johor

Allowing children to go on adventures to ‘worlds’ like this one enables them cultivate a sense of self while sharing in the experience with their families.

Creating a safe environment for children to explore their imaginations while making sense of the world around them is key to the highly successful Finnish system that is implemented here.

Why is the play-based Finnish education system so successful? Experts take note of the fact that Finns place an emphasis on early childhood education and development.

Role Play Leikkimokki Area in Fanpekka at Aeon Mall Tebrau City, Johor Bahru

In their system, even the youngest children are regarded as unique and respected as individuals with different needs, desires, and, most importantly, ways of learning.

Embracing individuality gives children the experiences and tools that they need to develop innovation and social skills.

They do this through praising creativity and allowing children to figure things out in their own way and on their own time. Incorporating these ideals into Fanpekka will now give these opportunities to children visiting or living in Malaysia.

Role Play Leikkimokki Area in Fanpekka at Aeon Mall Tebrau City, Johor Bahru

The goal of Fanpekka is to provide a fun, yet educational, environment for all children and families, especially those who might not have access to outings like this otherwise.

Aeon Fantasy’s Director, Wataru Koiwa, hopes to reach out to about 6,000 families per month with the use of these new facilities. The theme park is also expected to rise above the competition due to being indoors and, as such, not at the mercy of the weather.

Fanpekka Theme Park can divide into 6 categories as listed below:

1. Lasten Ocean

The addition of Fanpekka Cafe by SDS is the icing on the cake, giving families the opportunity to snack and drink in between play sessions. In the coming months, the park will surely turn into a tourist hotspot for visitors and their children, as well, truly emulating the Finnish way and providing a positive safe haven for all.
