An exposure to this wonderful event at such a young age can give the kids a new perspective and a thirst for creativity and individuality. Visiting the 191 pavilions would teach them the existence of diversified cultures in the world and the importance of unity.

But it shouldn’t be about education all the time, right? There are many adventure and fun activities available at the expo site to freshen up the kids’ minds.

Mars isn’t a Million Miles Away

Space is a hot topic at the moment, and kids aren’t an exception to that. At such a young age, they’re witnessing the human marvels happening in outer space. NASA, Hope probe, Mars, and Cosmos are casual words in their vocabulary. To cultivate their interests in a fun way, the space city is designed to give them a Mars-themed adventure.

Jump on the trampoline and learn all about the planets and our mysterious universe. Feel your body float in the zero-gravity chamber. You can take a selfie with the replica of the UAE space agency’s Hope Probe. Leap into orbit around swings and hop aboard the replica to have exciting fun.
