When you go on vacation with children, many worries the same question - will the child be bored in the resort? Is it possible to take something to take it or the child will miss the unknown for him and therefore uninteresting excursions?
Those who chose Valencia for their holiday should not worry about this - this is one of the most suitable for rest with the children of Spanish cities. If you are going to visit her to buy in the Mediterranean Sea and relax on the beach, keep in mind that in early June the water is usually not very warm - it warms up only until 20-21 degrees, and by the end of June - the beginning of June its temperature is already 25 - 26 degrees. Beach holidays with children will not give you any inconvenience - almost all the beaches in Valencia are sandy, so the children will be comfortable to enter the sea. However, if you arrived with a small child, you should choose a beach on which there is a waveness, because on some beaches of the city there are rather large waves that can scare kids. On the beaches there are toilets, though most often there are no cabins for dressing up - you can change yourself either in the toilet or you need to do in advance. On the beaches or in close proximity to them there is a cafe where you can feed the child and eat yourself - as a rule, there is a children's menu.
In addition, throughout Valencia, there are playgrounds that can take a child for several hours. The entrance to them is usually free. The largest and most unusual playground is located in the garden gardens (after visiting the site, you can also stroll through the park) and is made in the form of Gullover lying on Earth. It is called - Parque Guliver (i.e. Gullivier Park).
Most of the entertainment there is designed for children under 10 years. Another pretty large playground is located on Las Arenas Beach (next to the port). On her, your child will be able to ride a swing, ride from the slide and work on the carousel. There are few summer cafes where parents can sit. In principle, playgrounds are on all beaches and in all major shopping centers of Valencia.
In addition to the playgrounds with the child, you can take a walk in one of the many parks of the city - this is the Kabestor Park (in Spanish Parque de Cabecera), and the Royal Gardens, and Touria Gardens.
Children will be interested in visiting Valencia biophark, where animals live in conditions as close as possible to natural. The entire space of the park is divided into thematic areas, animals are fend off from visitors to some natural barrier (for example, a moat), so that you can watch freely.
In the park there are quite a few children, we usually like to look at animals. In addition, in Valencia there is a so-called city of science and arts - this is a huge complex consisting of several museums, cinema, operas, as well as aquarium. The latter as a rule is very attracted by children - after all, there you can look at different fish, among them there are both sharks and cute gold fish, and besides the rods, acne and other marine inhabitants. A particular "china" aquarium is a transparent tunnel, going through which the visitor seems to be from all sides by water. In addition, the complex includes the Museum of Science named after Prince Felipe, where there are several interactive exhibitions, which are usually interesting to children from 5 years. There you can spend funny experiences with electricity, go through the preparation for flight to space (in a game form, of course), and also look at the chicks hatching from eggs.
In general, the Spaniards are very benevolently belong to children and in Spain a lot is done for the convenience of kids - first, for strollers everywhere there are comfortable ramps, with a wheelchair you will easily be empty in the store and in a cafe. Spaniards generally often come to the cafe with children (exception - expensive luxury restaurants), so no one will look at you to look at you if you enter such an institution with a child. Almost everywhere, the child will be offered a children's chairs and children's menu (the truth often the child will be offered spaghetti bolognese or potato fries, so if you are a supporter of healthy food, it is better to take a baked fish and salad - the benefit of fish and vegetables are almost in every restaurant). Some cafes have children's corners and coloring for children. If you rent a car, warn in advance about this rolling office - they will give you a car with a car seat (for a small surcharge).
Based on the foregoing, I want to give parents one advice - do not be afraid to come to Valencia with children, in this city you can spend great time even with babies - the beaches there are clean and sandy, the sea is clean, in the cafe you will always find than feed the child (to that The supermarkets have a large selection of children's products - from diapers to child nutrition of various brands - as a rule it is one or more stands). In addition, fresh vegetables and fruits are sold in supermarkets - so the child in Spain is not a problem at all. The kids will probably like the playgrounds, which are on the beaches, and in the parks, and in shopping and entertainment centers, and just on the street, and the older kids will be interested in visiting the zoo, the oceanarium and the museum of science (after all, its individual exhibitions are specially adapted for Children).
