Kids Place in Dubai

Dubai has come from nowhere to become one of the world’s favourite places with parents. It’s safe, the pools and the hotel gardens are fantastic and money is being thrown at attractions like Wonderland and the slightly depressed Zoo to ensure they are all worth seeing. There are plenty of other things for children to do, from McDonalds and movies in a mall to an open-topped bus ride around town.



Water parks like Wild Wadi near the Jumeirah Beach Hotel are also fantastic. It’s a huge park with some of the tallest, fastest and longest water rides in the world. Plus some lazy river rides for people who want a few quieter moments. There are public beaches and parks if you don’t have a beachside hotel, though with so much construction going on offshore the water isn’t always as clear as you might hope.
