If you’re traveling with your kids, what to do in Istanbul with kids is an essential question to answer. First of all, I want to say the city is family-friendly and there are both fun and educational activities for your children in Istanbul. Not only Istanbul but also the whole country is like that, indeed. There are signs in many restaurants such as “this restaurant is family-friendly.” Now, we can focus on family activities and things to do with kids section. Children want something more enjoyable, adventurous events rather than a cultural tour sometimes. You need to find some specific activities for them. I will recommend some places such as fun centers, aquariums, aqua parks.
Legoland
Legoland is one of the formative and enjoyable place for your children. There are activities which develops your children’s skills. Dublo jams, creative workshops, lego racers: build&test will help to build new things. While your children use their creativeness, they will also have fun with activities like kingdom quest, Merlin’s Apprentice Ride, 4d cinema. You can find a shop and coffee place as well. https://www.legolanddiscoverycentre.com/istanbul/en/

Kidzania
Kidzania is highly unique fun and education center. It started its journey in Mexico and then enlarges its faicilities including Istanbul. It supports interactive learning, independency, responsibility, team-working, role-play activities. I always advice this facility to the families with children because it is a really matchless place all around the world.
Each section is sponsored by famous brands and enables children attend the workshops. For example, if you go to the culinary school, you will cook whatever you want or you can go to the dental clinic and you will learn the equipments and have a chance to do role-playing learning. Whatever your children’s interest, you will find the perfect workshop for them. Children will learn about a great amount of careers, communicate with others, self-esteem, managing money.
