Need inspiration for what to do with your child on Wednesday afternoons? We have a nice overview with something for everyone.

Active outing

If you opt for one of these fun active outings, you kill two birds with one stone: your child has an afternoon of fun and also gets enough exercise. Whether he jumps hundreds of times on a trampoline or ventures on a course in a climbing forest. And does it come pouring out of the sky? Then you just go to a nice indoor playground or subtropical swimming pool.

animal outing

You have probably seen Blijdorp, Artis and Burger Zoo before. But did you know that the Netherlands has a lot of nice unknown zoos? Just think of an owl park or sanctuary for reptiles and amphibians. Something different and your child will be amazed. Oh, and extra fun: usually you can get a little closer to the animals in the lesser-known, small zoos.

If you really want something completely different, it is nice to visit an alpaca farm or a bird park.

educational outing

Playing for hours is of course great fun for your child, but it is so nice if he also learns something from it at the same time. So choose one of the best educational outings that we have listed for your child. From how milk is made to escaping from an escape room.

Outing by train

Don’t feel like sitting inside all Wednesday afternoon, but the car is not at the door? Don’t worry, just take the train. You can easily reach these child-friendly outings by rail. An additional advantage: you don’t have to worry about parking.

Free outing

Forget expensive amusement parks and pricey museums: here we have collected a few fun free outings for you. For example, go plane spotting, geocaching or visit an open day of a hospital or the fire brigade. Your child is having the afternoon of his life and your wallet is happy too.
