Toddler Friendly Places
Toddler Friendly Places
Toddler moms know that keeping them entertained in between nap times can be a challenge. These are a few great places to visit for both kama’aina and those on vacation.
Great for a quick activity day. The zoo is not too big where you’re in it for the long haul. It’s the perfect amount of exercise and exploring for the kids. There is a playground and small petting zoo at the end, a great way to wind down the day. Enj...
Honolulu Zoo
A fun location with a great scenic drive on the east side of Oahu. Make sure to check the show times online or upon arrival so you do not miss the shows you came to see. The dolphin and sea lion shows are a definite must see.
They do offer private ...
Sea Life Park
Such a great outdoor experience for children! They have Open Farm days every second and last Saturday of the month. These days require reservations and have two time slots to choose from. During these times children can play in the digging pit, mud k...
Keiki and Plow
A great place for children who like to explore! They offer a great mix of explorative play, learning, and creativity. All their exhibits are interactive, my favorite being the water play area, located to the left upon entering. They do offer water ap...
Hawaii Children's Discovery Center
Great location for toddlers to get some energy out and get a nice little outdoor escape. Reservations need to be made online, and it’s free, but donations are suggested.
Lyon Arboretum
A great place to enjoy a day in the sun. I would plan to stay majority of the day, to make the price worth it. I would for sure recommend getting a cabana, it helps to have a place to chill out with some shade.
Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii
36 holes total!! Two different courses, can choose to do all 36, or just 18. All holes are outdoors and some have great obstacles. The top (Pali course) is a lot more fun, but has more hills. The bottom course (Likelike) is more flat, better if you n...
Bay View Mini-Putt And Zipline
So fun! Kids the kids occupied until you literally have to drag them away from the action. There is so much to do, from a ball pit, slides, jungle gym tubes, pretend play stations, and more! I love this option when I need my child to get some energy ...
Keiki Kingdom
This venue does seem the cleanest out of all the places similar to this. You see staff constantly walking around, which is great, either supervising or cleaning. There is an area for kids 5 and under, which is a great safer space for the littles. Enj...
Kids City Adventure
Fun activity for the kids. We usually keep an eye on what the special exhibits are and plan according to that. But even if the exhibit isn’t your child’s favorite, the science room is always so fun to explore!
Bishop Museum
The train place! is all my son needs to hear lol. The maze and the dole whip are just additional bonuses to make this trip to the north shore worth it!
Dole Plantation
A protected marine life conservation park. A great way to get involved with sea life and connected to the ‘aina. Reservations are required and do sell out quick! Admission and parking are free for kama’aina. An educational video must be viewed before...
Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve
Known for famous films like Jurassic Park, this nature reserve and cattle ranch is such a cool spot to check out. There are multiple different tours, with activities to last you a full day, or half day options. Our favorite toddler friendly tour is t...
Kualoa Ranch
A quick and free activity. It’s a great outdoor experience for the littles, plus many options for great photo ops. You can purchase fish food in the gift shop, which is a great activity for the kids. But please be respectful, people do attend for rel...
Byodo-In Temple
Need a serene place to unwind, this is your spot. Just the drive in alone is so calming on its own. But taking a walk to the lake, or just letting your kids run around in the grass is so relaxing for everyone! We like to take either breakfast or lunc...
