I have a big experience reward coming and I have some questions

[MiddleBoyBlue]

Do you get/give "experience" rewards that involve going out in public? If so, do you do them as the two adults you are or do you subtly and appropriately continue with the dynamic?

We're going to the amusement park!

I wasn't really sure how to title this because I don't want to give off the wrong impression here in any way, but I'm basically wondering how Daddy and I can privately play up the dynamic while out in a public [vanilla] space, and if that's even fully ethical. I hope it goes without saying that we would never be super outward or do anything to involve another person in this kind of capacity (in public, without their informed and enthusiastic consent, etc.). But we will be in public, we're going as a reward explicitly for my good behavior, and we'd like to be in-role as much as possible while still being 100% appropriate for that kind of atmosphere.

We both have certain clothing/accessory signifier items we wear that are totally kosher for a theme park and that we often wear while out (like t-shirts with specific prints, I tend to wear a cap, specific underwear even, etc.) I figure he can hold my hand on the rides, we can speak quietly or even message each other if it's something particularly intimate. He will be treating, he'll let me lead the way, all that stuff. Are there other things I'm not thinking of?

We've done Daddy/sport outings before but not really so explicitly as this kind of reward, and the last time was completely private (a hike). Being in a public, family-oriented atmosphere is different and I could use a gut check on this, or even just a sharing of experiences. I think I feel like as long as we are focused on what makes us feel the dynamic internally and are not doing anything to draw attention or involve others, I don't really see the problem. Not to mention, we are still two adults going to an amusement park and how we choose to interact with each other-- while being fully cognizant of the environment and within the bounds of public decency-- is up to us. STILL, I am totally open to differing opinions on this, or just any thoughts you may have on navigating this kind of vanilla-public-facing experience reward.

Thanks all in advance.

No real advice but I think you chose a good setting for this type of outing. Adults are encouraged to act child like on rides where you are free to giggle and scream and be excited. If they have games that's even better because now you are expected to play and carry the stuffie you won. All while eating candy and snacks and just being happy.  Sounds like a great day and I hope the weather is beautiful for your day out. Enjoy.

How fun!!! I'm a bit late to this so I hope you had a wonderful time!

To answer your question, hmmm. Usually it's just language I found that can be continued in public. Most of the time people aren't in earshot (unless you're waiting on those pesky long lines) and you're on the move. I think a lot of DDLG talk can kind of be easily seen as typical SO talk as well. The language of wording can also help play into the dynamic! For example, instead of "should I get this?" if you're in a gift shop, the question can be phrased as "can I get that?" or "will you get that for me?". So not a big signifier or strange language if overhead, but the two of you will know.

Thanks both! Sorry I'm a bit late to this. We did indeed go last week and had a great time. As shadowrider said, it's an environment that encourages adults to act something like children so it ended up being rather easy to maintain the dynamic. We ultimately incorporated a lot of what was suggested-- it was easy to continue to communicate appropriately and there weren't huge crowds. Daddy bear did indeed pay for everything and let me lead him around wherever, and while we opted against the very-rigged-looking games for a stuffie, I have a few good souvenirs. It was a great outing and a very nice reward. Thanks again!
