Kids' activities in Auckland
Between MOTAT, the Auckland Zoo, regional parks, and library sessions from Albany to Ōtara, Auckland has more family events on any given week than any parent can track alone.
Kids' activities in Christchurch
The Margaret Mahy Playground, Willowbank, the Botanic Gardens, and a busy calendar of community events make Ōtautahi an easy city to fill a weekend with kids.

Hamilton Gardens, the zoo, Waikato Museum's family days, and library programmes across Kirikiriroa keep Waikato families busy year-round.
Kids' activities in Tauranga
Beach days at the Mount, the Historic Village markets, and a steady stream of school-holiday programmes — Tauranga punches above its weight for family activities.
Kids' activities in Dunedin
Tūhura Otago Museum's science centre, the Botanic Garden aviary, and wildlife on the Otago Peninsula give Dunedin families plenty to explore in any weather.
Kids' activities in Napier & Hastings
The National Aquarium, Splash Planet in summer, and Hawke's Bay's market mornings make the Bay an easy place to plan a family day out.
Kids' activities in Palmerston North
Te Manawa's interactive galleries, the Esplanade's miniature railway, and Victoria Esplanade playgrounds anchor a surprising amount of family programming in Palmy.

Beaches from Paekākāriki to Waikanae, Ngā Manu Nature Reserve, and community events up and down SH1 — the Kāpiti Coast is built for outdoor family days.
Kids' activities in Rotorua
Redwoods walks, lakefront playgrounds, geothermal wonders, and school-holiday programmes make Rotorua a family-activity hotspot well beyond the tourist trail.

Founders Heritage Park, Natureland, Tāhunanui Beach, and the Saturday market give Nelson families a full calendar in the country's sunniest corner.
