The Best of NileGuide
There's only so many tours a five-year-old can take. When it's time to let the kids relax, take part in Ottawa's family-friendly attractions. But it's not all playgrounds and jungle gyms; these attractions are truly fun for the whole family. You might just reconnect with your own inner child - or at least Ottawa's spirit of youth. Some kid-friendly things to do in Ottawa include the Kids'Museum at the Museum of Civilization or interactive science exhibits at the Canada Science and Technology Museum. Active fun can be had at the Midway Family Fun Park or Calypso Water Park, while the artistically inclined can paint ceramic objects at The Mud Oven. And there are unusual toys aplenty at Mrs. Tiggy Winkle's toy store. The livestock barn at the Canadian Museum of Agriculture and the mazes at Saunders Farm let kids explore our rural roots.
