DISCOVERY CENTRE SHARJAH, A discovery indeed!!

The summer vacation is getting over for the little one and the busy schedule of school is going to be up soon.. We are enjoying the last bit of every weekend..

There are many places all over UAE specially catering to kids. All the malls have an amusement area. Plenty of beaches and parks were the kids can have endless hours of fun. But with the summer in full swing all the outdoors are out of bounds till 8 pm at least. The amusement area in most of the malls are more or less the same with video games and other consoles.

Finally we discovered a quiet little place on the outskirts of Sharjah. For a change there is no passive recreation here.:)

THE SHARJAH DISCOVERY CENTRE


The little one and her cousin had a great time..

Very educational, with activities for all age group of kids. There is a great driving track with everything including roundabouts and signals, a recording studio where the children watch themselves after the recordings, a mini airport including baggage claim, a cycling skeleton, many workshops on art and much more. Oh and don't forget to build your own fort! Lots of fun and lots to learn.

The place is a very good value for money , and keeps up the interest of the adults too.

Its run by the Sharjah tourism.  Here s the official website http://www.sharjahtourism.ae/en/heritage/museums/sharjah-discovery-centre

A must visit place if you are in UAE and have kids . But expect a tough time to get them out of there at the end of the day :)

Get geared up for some great colorful photos.
