5 Unusual activities to keep your kids entertained overseas!

3 min read

The December travel period is upon us all and like many, a family holiday is something to look forward to. Not only is it the perfect time to spend time together as a family, what with our daily lives usually getting in the way of quality time, travelling also widens our kid’s life experiences. But what do you do to keep your kids entertained overseas?

Here are 5 unusual activities that will keep your kids entertained and enriched while on a family holiday overseas:

  1. Learn all about Dinosaurs at a theme park

Step aside museums and let the Dinosaur Planet Theme Park in Bangkok take your family on an informative journey through prehistoric times and witness the life of dinosaurs up close!

A fun way to introduce the prehistoric time of our world to your kids, watch as they “run” from the speedy Velociraptors, see the toothy T-Rex, learn all about the dinosaurs’ natural habitats and more.

  1. Start training your little masterchef

Cook up a feast with your children at the Sompang Cooking School in Bangkok, conveniently located in Silom near major hotels.

Put away those gadgets and head to the local markets to shop for groceries and get step-by-step instructions on how to cook your favorite Thai dishes from the experts. Additionally, bring home a recipe book to recreate your Bangkok memories as a family.

Who knows, your kids may surprise you with a home cooked Thai meal or two, the next Mother’s/Father’s day! P.S. It’s free for children below six, so bring the whole family

  1.  New superhero for your kids

One of the world’s most unique national sports, Sumo originated in Japan as early as the 1600s.

Japan remains the only country where this heavyweight sport is practiced professionally. Take a peek into a rare training session with the Sumo experience and immerse your kids in a tradition steeped in heritage and surprising elegance.

  1. Escape from the City

Want to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life? Tired of replying to those endless emails and want to get your children away from their gadgets?

Head down to Singapore’s sister island Pulau Ubin! Skip the usual cycling route for Nature Kayaking.

Don’t worry about getting lost as sea as you’ll be following certified instructors as they navigate you through the sea and mangroves! Just enjoy the tranquility of the mangroves and learn a thing or two with your family about nature and the people living in that area.
