“I am bored” is every parent’s dreaded phrase. And kids love to moan and groan about how they can’t find anything to do when they are cooped up indoors in the hotter months. The flip-side is when they are glued to their screens and totally ignore the world. Neither of these options are healthy for kids; they need to be active, engaged and learning new things that will help grow their brains, bodies, and character. This year’s KidZania Summer Camp is filled to the brim with all of the fun activities kids love and enjoy.
The camp started on the 9th of June and runs for eight weeks, ending on the 1st of August. This year, the camp features over 15 educational workshops that have been tailor-made for visitors, ranging from DIY, acting & singing to accessories making, cooking and lots more.
The wide variety gives each child the opportunity to find the things they are uniquely interested in. Kids can then do deep dives into their new-found skills, all while being mentally stimulated and physically active. But best of all, they get to meet and make new friends who are interested in the same things they are. By the end of summer, they will be feeling more independent and empowered.
The hands-on approach to activity and judgement-free environment helps kids become more resilient and confident. Dedicated camp counselors called Zupervisors handle each workshop and make sure all visitors are safe, happy and having fun while they acquire new abilities.
The camp offers some structure to their day but is still very flexible. Because many people travel and have other commitments during summer, KidZania is offering different packages so that you can tailor your child’s experience to suit your needs.
You can start with the one-day pass which allows them to attend one workshop on any day for the duration of summer camp. By the end of the day they will walk out with their own certificate of completion, a T-shirt and an amazing sense of accomplishment.
The Five-day pass offers them five times the fun, two t-shirts and a certificate of completion for all of the five workshops they attend. And they don’t have to visit on consecutive days too. One, Two, Three and Four-week passes are also available.
The camp operates Sunday through Thursday from 9am until 3pm and is divided into three periods. The morning activities which include, breakfast, greetings and activities last until the 12 pm lunch break. Activities resume at 1pm with free play.
KidZania appreciates kids hard work so once a camper completes 15 workshops, they will receive two Golden Tickets, for free admission to KidZania that are valid until December 2019.
Children under 4 won’t be left out of the fun either, the Totz program offers them lots of fun activities that are suitable for them like puppet shows, storytelling, painting, movie time and exercising as well as breakfast and lunch.
To sign up, visit KidZania or call 2228 3180. Capacity is limited from five to fifteen kids in each workshop to avoid overcrowding so you will need to register for the workshop in advance.
