5x tips for kids
Museum Prinsenhof Delft
Museums are boring? No way! In Museum Prinsenhof Delft, families can get the “FamiliespeurWIJZER” – a quiz for the entire family. Or you can play detectives and investigate (and solve) the mystery of the assassination of William of Orange. The museum offers even more activities during school holidays. So come to Museum Prinsenhof Delft for a fun outing.
Royal Delft Museum
No trip to Delft is complete without a Delft Blue-related activity. At Royal Delft, kids learn all about these unique and famous ceramics. The museum offers a fun scavenger hunt for children up to the age of 10. Children can participate in even more great activities during the school holidays.
Vermeer Centrum Delft
Bezoek je het Vermeer Centrum, dan krijg je bij je ticket een gratis speurtocht. Zo kun je als ouder rustig de mooie werken van dichtbij bekijken, en leren je kinderen al spelenderwijs alles over het leven van Johannes Vermeer, zijn schilderijen en zijn thuisstad Delft!
Knus
The Knus party centre is just 10 minutes from Delft’s historic city centre. It is surrounded by nature and is a great location for all sorts of kid-proof activities on or around the water.
Knus rents out boats and pedalos and children will have hours of fun in the playground, which even includes a maze. When it’s sunny, the delightful waterfront terrace is a wonderful spot for a drink. And when it is cold outside, you can snuggle up next to the warm, cast-iron stove while sipping a hot cocoa.
Farmhouses and water play areas
Delft has two amazing water play areas, BuytenDelft and Tanthof, with the coolest equipment. Children can build dams and, most of all, will enjoy playing here for hours. BuytenDelft and Tanthof also include petting zoos, so animal-loving children will have a great time here as well. Let them pet the goats, laugh at the guinea pigs, and feed the ducks while you enjoy their happy faces!
