Moscow has a lot of entertainment for every taste and budget, and in this article I have prepared a list of the 10 best places to go with a child in Moscow.
Behind last years Hundreds of places have appeared where you can go with your child in Moscow. However, among this variety it is very difficult to choose the best and decide where it is better to spend time with the whole family.
For those on a budget, Moscow's numerous parks are an excellent choice, where you can spend a great day with your child without breaking the bank. The capital of our Motherland is full of contrasts, and there are also entertainments here that you will have to pay half for monthly salary. They were not included in my personal rating of places to go with a child in Moscow.
So, where can you go with your child in the capital and enjoy time spent with your family?
I will give you the 10 best places to go with a child in Moscow.
No. 10. Moscow Children's Book Theater Magic Lamp
A small and cozy puppet theater with a sincere atmosphere in the center of Moscow offers performances for the youngest children, from just 3 years old. The theater is located in the center and has a flexible booking system: if a child suddenly gets sick, you can cancel the reservation right on the day of the performance. I recommend going with your child to the play “A Kitten Named Woof” in Moscow.
Price: 900‒1200 rubles
No. 9. Sokolniki Park
One of the largest parks in Moscow, Sokolniki, is a great place to go with a child of any age. There is an amusement park and many paths for cycling, rollerblading and skiing in the winter. There is also an ice skating rink open in winter. Unlike another popular Moscow Gorky Park, in Sokolniki you can drive a stroller absolutely everywhere and it’s not so crowded. Here you can look at ducks and swans on the Golden Pond, see squirrels (just don’t feed them, please), play on one of the many playgrounds, and ride a train (as in the photo). And if you are looking for where to go with your child disabilities in Moscow, Sokolniki would be an excellent option: it has a stroller-friendly environment, and there is an Emerald City playground on site that takes into account the needs of children with special needs.
Price: for free
No. 8. Moscow Planetarium
The oldest planetarium in Russia and one of the largest in the world, the Moscow Planetarium can delight astronomy lovers of any age, although I recommend coming here with children over 6 years old, because younger children may find it boring and confusing. I’ll say right away that you should spend the whole day visiting the Planetarium or split your visit into two days: there are a lot of activities and information. You should definitely visit the Great Star Hall and the Urania Museum, as well as the Lunarium Interactive Museum (free for children under 6 years old). I don’t recommend going to the Theater of Fascinating Science - it’s boring and definitely not worth the extra 600 rubles. Tickets can be purchased in advance, but there are no discounts available on the website.
Price: from 550 rubles, many benefits
No. 7. Moscow Circus on Tsvetnoy Boulevard.
Nikulin Circus is one of the oldest and most famous circuses in Russia, where you can go with a child of any age. If you live in Moscow or are passing through here, this is a must-visit place. An extraordinary atmosphere of childhood, an interesting program that children from 2 to 100 years old can watch in one breath, the opportunity to take pictures with circus animals (alas, expensive). I highly recommend going to the “Circus Magic” program, regardless of whether you have children: adults leave the show almost happier than the younger generation.
Price: from 500 rubles
No. 6. State Farm Park named after Lenin “Lukomorye”
One of the best free places to go with a child in Moscow. Although, from a technical point of view, the park is located in the Moscow region, it is only two bus stops from the Domodedovskaya metro station. The park is designed for a wide range of age groups, and it is better to come here for the whole day, before opening at 9 am. At noon, you can already get into a long line, and the wait will take from half an hour to one and a half: the number of people in the territory is limited to avoid crowding. The atmosphere of a fairy tale and fun reigns in the park: you can watch a mini-performance, jump on a trampoline, climb in a rope town, see your favorite fairy-tale characters, “swim” in a pool with balls and do face painting (for an additional fee).
Price: for free
No. 5. Indoor skating rink
One of my favorite pastimes is ice skating. And although I really love outdoor skating rinks, their indoor counterparts are significantly superior to the former in terms of ice quality: for this reason, skating on them with children is much more pleasant, and there are much fewer people. There are a great many indoor skating rinks in Moscow, and I advise you to choose the one that is closer to your home so as not to carry heavy skates and warm clothes far away. The location of the Grad skating rink in the Gorod-Lefortovo shopping center suits my location: the skating session lasts one hour, the schedule is published on the website. There is a skate rental and sharpening service.
Price: up to 12 years old - 250 rubles, adult ticket - 350 rubles
No. 4. Oceanarium on Dmitrovskoye Shosse
The largest oceanarium in Russia is located in mall“Rio” on Dmitrovskoe highway. Compared to the aquarium, the Moscow one is much more modest in size and variety, but, nevertheless, there is something to see here: bloodthirsty piranhas, sharks, Dory fish, penguins, jellyfish and stingrays, as well as many other inhabitants of the deep sea. You can come with the little ones.
Price: on weekdays: children under 5 years old - free, from 5 to 14 - 250 rubles, adults - 500 rubles. On weekends 50 rubles more expensive
No. 3. Water park Kva-Kva Park
A great place to go with the whole family with children in Moscow. In photographs it is huge, in life it is a little smaller. But, despite its size, you can find many interesting slides, fountains, and attractions here. Carefully study the age restrictions: on interesting slides there is an age limit of 10 years, and for children 3–8 years old there is a children's playground. I recommend going to the water park in the warm season, since at deep subzero temperatures there is a draft: it’s easy to catch a cold.
Price: children under 4 years old - free, from 120 to 150 cm - from 540 rubles, adults - from 940 rubles
No. 2. KidZania
One of those places that I look at and am terribly jealous of today's children: as a child, I would have swallowed a hat to visit here. KidZania opened in Moscow quite recently, but has already gained thousands of fans, including me. This is a play-based learning park built in the shape of a city where kids can try themselves in a hundred different professions: cook, dentist, policeman, fireman. The child will have his own passport and even a salary, which he can spend on entertainment or in the store. If your child is over 7 years old and is completely independent, then you can save on the cost of the ticket for yourself and wait for him outside the park. The length of stay in Kidzania is 4 hours, but during the summer holidays the restriction does not apply, and you can spend the whole day here.
Price: children - from 390 rubles, adults - from 500 rubles
Here's my personal favorite on the list of places, where to go with a child in Moscow:
No. 1. Museum Experimentarium
If you are looking for where to go with a child in Moscow, I highly recommend the Experimentarium Museum. I have been to the museum several times already, and always left with only positive emotions. It is interesting here for both adults and children: you can touch everything with your own hands, conduct experiments, learn a lot about physics, chemistry, space, solve puzzles, jump and run. In addition to the most interesting permanent exhibition, the museum hosts classes, lectures and shows every day: the schedule is on the website. In my opinion, this is the best price-quality ratio among all the places you can go with a child in Moscow.
Price: children under 3 years old - free, from 4 to 16 - from 450 rubles, adults - from 550 rubles
But, in fact, despite this list of the best places to go with a child in Moscow, it doesn’t matter where exactly you go; most importantly, don’t forget to take it with you good mood, and then even an ordinary walk in the park will bring you and your child joy! :)

- ability to set goals and achieve results,
- take responsibility for your decisions,
- work in a team

We don't have animators or story lines. We are not a theater or a one-time quest. We create an educational environment in which children with interest solve problems that come at them from all sides and are important for survival and development. space station on a distant planet. This is a metaphorical representation of adult life.
The plot depends entirely on the decisions of the children, the realization of this will not come immediately, so 3 days of camp are required. Having figured out the “zest”, children are drawn into the game, generating incredible solutions, discovering new talents. This is a unique immersion in the environment of a collective response to the challenge of the external environment, so we have no winners and losers.
At the same time, like in the Mad Tea Party with Alice, you can change your role, try new professions and see how this affects the team’s performance. So the superficial idea “Oh, it’s about robots, my child won’t be interested” is wrong. In the morning he will start, for example, as a journalist, and by the evening he will become the Minister of Industry. In a short time, a teenager tests his abilities in the areas of professional activity of the present and the foreseeable future.
Only in such conditions can one effectively train soft-skills - universal skills that will be useful to them in any business:
- - systems thinking,
- - hypothesis testing,
- - acceptance of responsibility,
- - bringing things to an end,
- - communication skills.
This is personal baggage that helps you solve work problems easily and productively and constantly move forward. The trouble is that soft skills are not taught anywhere. And our camp undertakes to fill this gap!
What awaits you at the camp?
- Master classes: More than 10 hours of intensive training in current professional areas. Unit economics, programming, robotics, media journalism and others.
- Social simulator: A game form with dozens of roles, quests and challenges that will help you master the key skills of a successful person: systems thinking, taking responsibility, getting things done, communication skills.
- Complex world: We have a lot of robots, blasters, simulator space flight, internal communication network, interactive map of the planet, alien invasion and Christmas tree.
