What to do with Kids in Bangkok?

[David48atTD]

Have a day and a night in Bangkok before off to the joys of Farm living.
Earlyish January, but well after NYE.

Never really taken the 6yo boys (twin boys) anywhere in Bangkok.

Will be staying in a Hotel on Lower Suk.
No car though. MissFarmGirl, their Mum will bring them but declines to drive in the Bangkok CBD
So BTS, Metro and Taxi's are fine.
Mum and the Boys are at the Farm already.

Anyone done anything recently with younger kids? Recommendations?

Anything to avoid?


Thanks in Advance.

Imaginia in Emporium, educational and fun

Sea Life Centre, Siam

Bounce in Emquartier, trampolines

Kids outdoor playground at Benjasiri Park next to Emporium

Kidzania at Siam Paragon where they can be firemen or policemen or pilots or whatever.

And various Pubs with no brass

[Dillinger]

Snowland at Gateway, Ekamai.

Bit shit but theyve probably never seen snow

[Dillinger]

Was gonna mention that waterpark on the roof of some shopping mall far out on the BTS, but its a bit cold for that now

[Dillinger]

Basically, get yourself to Phrom Pong BTS where theres loads for them to do and a couple of faux Irish and English pubs in walking distance to finish the afternoon off, namely Herritys, The Robin Hood and another one, erm... the old Bulls Head?

[Dillinger]

Go karting at RCA, although think they maybe too young for that

[Dillinger]

Theres a Harborland and Kidzoona in Gateway Ekamai too, where Snowland is.

Thanks for that Dill ... some great ideas there.
I'll look at their web-sites and see what I can discover.

We'll leave the waterparks till we get to Pattaya.

We went last year to 2 waterpark hotels and had a ball, going again on this trip.

What is there for them to do in the English pubs?

I've been to the Robin Hood and one named Arrow something, but what is there for them to do?

Or am I focusing wrong and It's Dad who would need a break?

Neither MissFarmGirl nor the Boys have seen snow. They have, however been ice-skating twice.

Must have been decades since I've touched snow also.

Yep, too young for go-carting, but they had a ball on the dodgems recently at our local fair.

Sit there and behave themselves like I used to be told or do like normal kids nowadays and play on their tablets

You could always feed them in there Dave whilst you had a couple after lugging them around all day.

Thats what I'x do anyway.

Just thought if you go K Village which is down the road from Emporium near rama 4, theres a pub there called Roots, next door to an outdoor playground where you can sit outside, dine, neck a few and unwind whilst they play.

^^ I'll second the Sea Life Centre at the Siam.

And as for what to do in the English pubs... they can watch their tablets with headphones on. You should get an hour or so out of that!

My kids plus my wife and I enjoyed this place right by Jatujak Market. Great for two or more hours with the kids both indoors and out. Then you have all of JJ's food options and JJ itself for a little shopping if they dont get tired.

Childrens discovery museum..

Theres a kids adventure playground thing in Emquartier too, where they harness them up and they walk across beams and come down zip wires.

Thats about exhausted the placaes I take my daughter.

If you've just got a day and want everything in close proximity, I'd go to Phrom Pong then take them imaginia, look around the mall, the park, then bounce, maybe a movie then the pub

^ Dill, I'm hearing ya'

AO ... that place looks great.

Might have to make it two days in Bangkok!

3-4 days would be good.

I'd recommend all of those places. They'd have a lot of fun in all of them.

[Luigi]

Funarium and Siam Ocean World one day.

Science museum & Planetarium, the BTS out to Harbourland, 2nd day.

Up to Dreamworld 3rd day,

4th day, up the national science museum, with a detour out to Koh Kret island to get a longtail speed boat around it.

3 days would be good.

The Farm is a couple of hours drive from the Bangkok CBD, depending on the time of the commute so, if we don't get through all the great suggestions, we might have to do a few day trips.
