~ THINGS TO DO WITH KIDS ~

Glasgow is most definitely a family friendly city. Visiting a city through the eyes of a child is a fantastic way to do and see things you may simply otherwise overlook.

Without a doubt, we would recommend a visit to the Glasgow Science Centre. Ideal for families in particular the centre is a place where you can expect the unexpected. Make sure to allow enough time for your visit to make it worth your while! Popular exhibits include the planetarium, ‘Question of perception zone’ and ‘Powering the future’.

Ideal for a day out with all the family, the Botanic Gardens are easily to get to, situated in the West End of Glasgow. Open daily, younger kids will enjoy minibeasts, the birds and the tree trails that lead you through a trail of the Gardens and Arboretum.

Have you heard of bouldering? Essentially it is climbing over mats, but it’s a lot more challenging that it sounds. Experienced and beginner climbers will enjoy the challenge.

The heat is on as families get competitive at this ever-popular venue, ‘Hollywood Bowl’ 25 bowling lanes, a diner and arcade games are just some of what can entertain you during your visit.
