Wednesday [OFF] # 3


It is Wednesday and your kids have the afternoon free. In theory it is spring and the weather should be warm(er) and dry (ier). However, it is still cold outside or rainy.... What to do ?

Artis
In this zoo in Plantage area in Amsterdam there are extra hugging afternoon (knuffelmiddagen) with small animals. I love this zoo because lots of animals are not in jails. And the Aquarium always brings me into another dimension ! For more information check its site: http://www.artis.nl/ The contents in this site can also be read in English, German, French and Turkish.

TunFun
Indoor playground for children up to 12 years old. Trampolines, children disco, ball pool... Lonely Planet City Guide stated in 2004 that the place is "very odd, very cool, very Amsterdam". TunFun is located in the heart of the city near Weesperstraat, Muiderstraat, Valkenburgerstraat, Jodenbreestraat and the Waterlooplein. http://www.tunfun.nl/

Tropenmuseum
The Tropic museum brings children to a journey through the time. Lots of expositions and collections from around the world. On the 4th April there is the Voodoo Trance Festival. Until 10 th May you can learn lots of things about Voodoo ! Brrr... And the Chocolate Expedition goes until 14th June. http://www.tropenmuseum.nl/ and http://www.tropenmuseumjunior.nl/

NEMO
The largest science centre in the Netherlands. The architecture of this museum is mindblowing, just like a ship ! Films, demonstrations, workshops, games and experiments for children and also teenagers. http://www.e-nemo.nl/


It is going to be a busy Wednesday... I need a day off !
