When it comes to travelling abroad, particularly with kids, it is easy to feel a little anxious about negotiating the needs of the adults and the little ones. However, when you visit Kuala Lumpur, you will find yourself surrounded by activities that can be enjoyed by both parties simultaneously.
Located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur City Centre, there are people of all ages. The wave machines and their soft spray offers a refreshing day out with the kids. If the kids feel up to it, they can even take a shot at trying to ride a few waves with some adult supervision.
Additionally, if they have some energy to spare after the above, they can unwind by enjoying the wonders of the Wildlife Park that houses wildlife ranging from tigers to pythons.
The older kids amongst you can also try their luck at the archery range and the bungee jump located at the Extreme Park. There is also a horror-themed park if you are up for it!
If you are staying at a hotel in Bukit Bintang, for example, a place like The Kuala Lumpur Journal Hotel then you will find yourself just a 20-minute journey from this paradise designed for kids between the ages of 4 to 14.
This self-contained model and miniature city are a huge hit with kids and they even get to play real roles within the city. Some kids can jump between experiences such as being a surgeon, fireman and pain expert.
