1 . This is shaping up to be a big year for US theme parks — and we’re not just talking about Disney. From coast to coast, theme parks are opening exciting new rides for people.
Legoland New York Resort
Over Memorial Day weekend, Legoland opened its newest attraction: a Lego-themed water playground where families can play water, slide and beat the heat. There is also a nearby changing area so you can take off your wet swimsuit when you’re ready to head for the park’s land-based attractions.
Universal Studios Hollywood
Though the land has only one ride, Super Nintendo World has more than enough to keep you busy after you race to the finish. Throughout the land, there are interactive challenges where you can collect digital coins and try to secure a top score. You will also find all the souvenirs and clothing you need to complete your experience.
Busch Gardens Tampa Bay
The Serengeti Flyer swing ride is currently the world’s tallest and fastest ride of its kind. You’ll rise rapidly above zebras, giraffes and other animals that reside in the park’s 65-acre Serengeti Plain. Because of its extreme nature, the ride has a 48-inch (英寸) minimum (最小的) height requirement.
Busch Gardens Williamsburg
Busch Gardens Williamsburg’s newest coaster (过山车) will have guests racing through the dark while attempting to escape a castle. DarKoaster is a fully indoor coaster with ride vehicles designed to look like snowmobiles. You’ll need them to travel through the strange snowstorm inside the castle.

General introduction
The Future Stars was set up in 1988 as a non-profit service center for child development devoted to providing quality childcare in a loving and educational environment for children 6 weeks to 6 years of age. Our funds mainly come from public donations.
A healthy curiosity about learning is the most important quality for early childhood development. We aim at offering high quality developmentally age-appropriate activities for early childhood, the most Important time of child development, so that they can do better after they start formal schooling.
Hours of operation
Childcare will be provided for the child from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday through Friday except for holidays. Children may not arrive before 7:00 am or remain after 6:00 pm. Should an emergency arise, the parent should immediately make us know in consideration of our work arrangements. A late charge of $ 1.00 per minute will be assessed if the child is not picked up by 6:05 pm. Charges for these services are to be paid directly to the staff person that has been looking after your child until your arrival, not to the center. Failure to pay late charges may affect continued services with the center.
Tuition (学费)
When it has been confirmed that a position is available for your child, you must pay a registration (注册) fee of $200 per child.
The weekly tuition fee is $ 98.00. You can make payments either by credit card or in cash on Monday every week. If your payment is not made by Tuesday at 9:00 am, you will be charged a $ 25.00 late fee.
