- MrAmericano254 contributionsExcellent Staff & Excellent PlaceGreat experience. Went last Minute with my 3 daughters and they loved it. The face painting ladies were able to do all 3 girls at the same time since they had 3 face painters on staff. The information lady from Karla was so very friendly. The entrance guards were even friendly. The lady at the play area opened the area up for our 3@4 year old even though the area was closed off (prior to the end time of the museum). My only suggestion would be to keep everything open and turned on until exactly the closing time, and not be turning things off prior to the closing time.Visited March 2024Traveled with familyWritten March 12, 2024
- A MDubai, United Arab Emirates2 contributionsAmazingI am so happy that I visited this place with my four kids. There was a play area for small kids like 3 or 4 years old or limited height of 110. And for my big kids they did workshops. There was planet shows which they enjoyed and all the galleries are like interactive.

- sam-alhammadiUnited Arab Emirates1 contributionThe Best Summer Camp in Children CityChildren City one of the best places for Summer Camp. My daughter hand a fantastic and enjoyable time during the 2 weeks. They have variety and different activities every day, also daily trips to wonderful places. They have good security to keep kids safe, plus buggy take the parents to gate. I would like to thanks all the supervisors and helper that make this summer camp interesting and unique than others.

- AJD28Gujarat, India477 contributionsEducational and Informative - with scope and capacity to become a fantastic venue but lacking some creativityA good entertaining venue, particularly during the summer. The exhibits are educational and informative. The planetarium also incorporates very interesting materials showcasing videos purpose made for young children to educate in a fun way. There was unfortunately not much guidance from staff to engage the children, which other locations in Dubai benefit from - i.e. where staff direct and interact with children and bring exhibits to life. I feel more could be done with the expansive space available too to really make this is a must-go-to venue. At the moment, it is somewhat treated as an add-on if visiting the dolphinarium but they could invest some creativity into making this a standalone visit. Pricing is reasonable but perhaps on the high side considering what is currently offered. My daughter was able to do some facepainting which she thoroughly enjoyed and there is a small softplay for very young children too.Visited July 2024Traveled with familyWritten July 25, 2024

Went there with 11 YO and 14 YO daughters on 26th of july, place is decent and a good source of scientific knowledge. But the staff there is very rude and unhelpful. When we crossed the barriers we had to pay the entry fee but when we entered the main entrance they wanted the fees again which they weren't sure about how much, one guy said fifty riyal and the other said forty. I tried to pay with cash but he did'nt have change for 100 riyal and asked me to give him the right amount of change or i can't enter, Luckily i had my card so i paid with it. The guy whose duty was on planetarium
was also unaware of basic courtesy and behaved like he was doing a huge favor to switch on the show. Finally we needed the taxi to go back to our hotel and asked for the phone number or book a taxi for us but no one could help us with booking or providing us with number other then telling us to go out and wait in bus stop for taxi. It was afternoon and too hot to wait outside so rang a friend in abudhabi to book a taxi otherwise we will be roasted there.

My son loves visiting children's city we have been members of children's city since last 5 years and still wish to continue as members. The park and children's city both are clean and beautiful. The best part is with children's city membership the park entry is free so we enjoy whole year unlimited access to the park as well. Wonderful to be there and be with nature.

Children's city is the place you want to go when visiting Dubai with the little ones. First, of all the place is indoor and with a good air condition system, so you can visit even at the hot summer days. Second, they have really good indoor playground, even for the toddlers. The visit, for 2 adults and 2 kids cost us 40 dirham. In Dubai its very hard to find an affordable attraction for kids, and Children's city is definitely one of the places you should visit. We've been at the place for a good 3 hours. Check if they show a movie at the planetarium, we had it at 13:00
Tip: the Dolphinarium is in a walking distance, you definitely can do the two places at the same day.

Children’s City is a wonderful place for kids of various ages. They offer fun activities and a lot of exploration stations.
My child was lucky to be a part of their summer camp program and she enjoyed it a lot. They had trips to Dolphinarium, Frame Dubai, SkiDubai, horse stables and many others. There were a lot of activities as creative art, planting, robotics, cooking, yoga and more.
Lina made a lot of friends and gained more confidence in taking part in the activities and being a member of the UAE community.
I highly recommend to visit this place!
Thanks to everyone who took part making this happen. All the staff there is welcoming, loving, caring and sweet!
We couldn’t expect any better!

Another activity for the kids inside the Creek Park. Children's City showcase lot when it comes to the history and culture of Dubai for the young ones. It also has the planetarium that everyone can also enjoy. There are also interactive activities in every exhibit which is really fun to play with even though I'm much older for this. In this times, they observed social distancing and there are some officers from the are that always reminding to put your own mask on.

A perfect family spot for spending a weekend or vacation.
There is a nice outdoors park. There is the creek's waterfront. And there is the museum which has amazing stations that teach kids about body parts, cultures, basic physics, and outer space. There is also an open library and toddler's play area inside the museum.
