Dubai for Kids – A Holiday of Fun Adventures

Aquaventure Water Park has to be one of the most adrenaline pumping and exciting water parks in the entire UAE. From shark tanks to swirling in rapids, this waterpark has activities that will keep your entire family occupied – no matter their age. The waterpark has a Splashers Children's Play Area for the little ones which has a whole range of tame rides for them to enjoy. From slippery waterslides to the Big Bucket of Splash, kids are bound to have a bucket full of fun here. You can also spend your time at the Dubai beach. Villas around the beach are plentiful if your kids enjoy playing by the golden sands of the beach. However if you're looking for other options for accommodation, choose one that is kid friendly!

Family friendly hotels and resorts in Dubai might not be as popular as you'd imagine. If you're travelling with your kids, you'll need to look for a place that caters to your kids' energetic needs. Some hotels such as Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort, have a kids club – which will keep your tiny tots occupied the whole day as you enjoy a refreshing dip in the pool or spend the day in the spa. These kids clubs usually have a range of activities, from arts and crafts, games that will help them grow, understand and learn while also making sure they have fun. Most kids clubs have a television, game room and others to keep some of the older kids occupied.

Do you usually see your little ones wearing your high heels or just trying to act like a grown up? Here's your chance to let them! KidZania allows your kids to act out a career that they've always wanted to have, whether it's to be a fire-fighter, policeman,chef, doctor, pilot or anything else they could think of! Your kids will dress up and act out their profession they choose during the day – it's certainly a great way to watch them interact with other kids during their "work day".

Yes, this little gem of a country has an ice rink, even though it's in the middle of a desert! Ice skating is certainly a must do when you visit Dubai. This activity is not just for kids though, rent out a pair of skates for yourself as well and head down to the rink. Kids are given a buddy – in the form of a skating penguin known as Penguin Pals, to hold on to, as they make their way and learn to skate on ice.
