Madrid with kids

Are you coming to Madrid with kids?
Don't you know where to take your children? I think I have some wonderful ideas for you and your kids.

Amusement Park Madrid

One of the biggest leisure areas in Spain is in the Casa de Campo. There are 48 rides and attractions where you will have a good time with your family. You can spend one day having fun going on the rollercoasters and the rapids, eating in a restaurant, watching a show or just going for a walk surrounded by nature.

The amusement park is divided into five large theme areas:

• Machines: the most exciting rides and rollercoasters
• Main Avenue: have lunch in the restaurants or bars
• Nature: have a quiet stroll surrounded by trees and flowers
• Relax: calm and refreshing rides
• Kids: sixteen mini-rides for the youngest

Do you fancy some fright? Visit the old manor and have dinner with Freddy Krueger or Hannibal Lecter. They'll be happy to see you.

Warner Bros Park

Do you want to feel like a film star and shake hands with Bugs Bunny?
Warner Park is another place to visit Madrid with kids. It was opened 9 years ago in San Martin de la Vega, 25km from Madrid.

It's divided into five theme areas:

• Hollywood Boulevard. Main street of the park that leads you to the other areas and where you will feel like a Hollywood superstar walking along the red carpet.
• Cartoon Village. There you will find the houses of Bugs Bunny and his folks.
• Old West Territory, where you will enter the Far West world and be a cowboy.
• DC Super Heroes World, where Superman and Batman will be watching you carefully in case you need their help.
• Warner Bros Studios, whose streets recreate the sets and stages of famous movies.

Faunia

A biological park which combines fun with educational purposes. You and your kids will visit the world's richest ecosystems, habitats and natural surroundings. You will know nature and animals.
There are over 4,000 animals, different plant and tree species and documentaries on nature can be seen.

The main attraction of Faunia is, undoutedly, its animals: birds, mammals and numerous fish species. It s a place where you can experience nature. See, hear and smell animals and plants in their habitats. Because the added-value of this park is the fact that it does not only show animals, but ecosystems: the Amazon jungle, the Polar ecosystem, the aviary...
Kids favourite is the farm where they can have a good time with chickens, roasters, a goat and see kangaroos jump.
The latest innovation of the park is Jurassic, a pavillion where you can learn how dinosaurs lived.
The park, in order to commemorate that 150 years ago, Charles Darwin published his study on the origin, has created a thematic area about the origin of life called Evolution.
