If you are thinking about visiting with your family, you can be confident that New Zealand has a wide range of activities to keep your children happy.
New Zealand’s parks and large areas of unspoiled wilderness are ideal places to expand your children’s appreciation of wildlife and the outdoors.
Horse riding, snow activities, whale watching, fruit picking, and wildlife centers and zoos are just some of the choices available. If you are visiting the larger centers, you will find a range of themed attractions including Rainbow’s End (Auckland), Splash Planet (Hastings), Marine Land (Napier), and the International Antarctic Centre (Christchurch). Te Papa, New Zealand’s interactive national museum, has a range of activities for the whole family to enjoy, including Story Place, a haven for small children.
Most family restaurants have childrenâs menus and high chairs. Many cafes also have high chairs, and a toy basket to amuse babies and toddlers is becoming increasingly common in both cafes and shops. Most public gardens have well-equipped play areas for young children, as do many holiday parks. Adventure playlands such as Chipmunks or Lollipopâs Playland are always popular with the very young â these can be found in most main centers.
