KidZania Manila

Located in Bonifacio Global City in the heart of Manila’s newest business district. Kidzania is a fun, educational play city where kids can play different roles from fire-fighters, to nurses, to fashion models. They can even get a Masters Degree to earn more kidzos (the play currency) which they can trade or save. It is aimed at kids aged four to fourteen.
On arrival the kids are given their own boarding pass and enter what I can only describe as a giant living...

Located in Bonifacio Global City in the heart of Manila’s newest business district. Kidzania is a fun, educational play city where kids can play different roles from fire-fighters, to nurses, to fashion models. They can even get a Masters Degree to earn more kidzos (the play currency) which they can trade or save. It is aimed at kids aged four to fourteen.
On arrival the kids are given their own boarding pass and enter what I can only describe as a giant living board game (reminiscent of the Game of Life). They go from place to place learning, making, exchanging ideas and taking part in activities. The best part is that parents can’t interfere! We have to wait outside each activity and let the facilitators at Kidzania take control.
Maya took five of her buddies and they became paramedics, fire-fighters, pizza-makers, pilots, beauticians and fashion models. The security is seriously state of the art so kids can freely roam. They each have a wrist band which would create an alarm if they were to leave the premises without their parent in charge.

Entrance fees: It may seem a little pricey (at 900php – 1,00php depending on the day) but when taken into consideration the length of stay, inclusion of lunch (if the kids make it) and activities on offer it is worth it. The sessions last for 5 hours and our kids were more than happy to stay this long.
