Only in Silicone Valley would you have a Christmas party like Trek's office.
We had a fun pizza dinner with tons of food, an elephant gift exchange for all the kids, & then an hour of "playing with toys!"
What toys you might ask?
Well here's just a few I actually got pics of . . .
Hoverboards (which are my teenage girls' favorites),
several drones (I think each of my boys & Trek were all flying different drones),
robots (BB8 & Sphero) controlled by tablets,
(It was really amazing watching 2 & 3 year old kids controlling these drones & robots. User interface is amazing nowadays)
And virtual reality games which I found absolutely hilarious. There were a few people just wandering around the room reaching out trying to swat at bad guys & sometimes you got caught in the enslaught. I don't think I'll ever understand the draw of virtual reality, but my kids thought it was the coolest thing they've ever seen in their life.
This area is really such a cool high tech place. It's been a really fun assignment for our whole family. The kids are all learning basic computer coding in school & Cadence is actually in the process of developing her own music teaching app for the apple store right now. She's taking a Swift course & is doing really well at it.
SO MUCH FUN.
