Family Time
Winnipeg is chalk-a-block full of
child-centric things to see and do,
from summers on splash pads and
epic playgrounds, to winters on ice
when Winnipeg's design community
and festivals turn the city into a
storybook like wonderland.
Spring and summer bring KidsFest,
Festival of Fools and Fringe Festival –
annual events that bring an atmosphere and
buckets full of silliness that your kiddies will
simply adore.
Pick a local hotel with a water park onsite
and become an instant hero. Five Canad
Inns locations in Winnipeg have Splasher's
Indoor Pool and Waterslides inside, while
Victoria Inn Hotel and Convention
Centre and the Holiday Inn Winnipeg-
Airport West are just a few local hotels
with kids play structures, pools and water
features.
No matter what season you'll always
find something super cool to do for kids
of all ages. Go snow tubing, zip lining,
go-cart racing or let them run off some
steam (while learning a few things) at
Variety Heritage Adventure Park
at The Forks. Explore the interactive
exhibits and galleries inside the Children's
Museum and The Manitoba Museum –
which also houses one of the world's most
advanced Planetariums. Or, take them
to Assiniboine Park to run wild on the
massive Nature Playground, followed by
an afternoon in Assiniboine Park Zoo
where the wild things really are.
