In the past week I have received at least 3 calls from my foreign friends asking help to find decent costume rental in Prague. Last year I have visited few of them and here is an overview what you can expect. Don’t forget to reserve your costume on-time, because Czechs hold many fancy-dress parties for kids over winter as well as fancy dress parties and balls for adults. If you wish to purchase a kids costume - you will find quite a good choice in Tesco, Bambule Toy Shops, Sparkies and even NEXT.

On daily (except Mondays) till 30th October right at the entry to the Výstaviště Exhibition Grounds, the annual St Wenceslas Autumn Fair is in full swing. Clowns, performances and over 50 rides are there for kids to enjoy and entry to the fairground is free. Heres an idea, why not also combine the fair and visit us at the Expat Expo in the Exhibition Hall next Saturday!

This is one of the latest attractions for families in Prague. Truth is - you can find here some many activities that I do not know where to start. There is a big playground with a huge climbing rope construction for older kids and a small playground for babies, climbing walls, a daily program with all kinds of clubs and activities, an Indoor Playground and Cafe for toddlers, Daily Babysitting, a play area with a restaurant for bigger kids and also must mention an outdoor conservatory for birthday parties.
AND!!! The changing table is also in the Men’s. For working parents - they do have Wi-Fi coverage even outdoors!

This is a NEW Indoor Playground in Palladium Shopping Mall. I am not talking about the smaller one in the Food Court - which by the way - will be closed soon. It’s operated by the same owner and he’s decided to concentrate on Hrad Zabavy (The Entertainment Castle), a larger area with lots of attractions and friendly staff. There is no real Babysitting here but you can leave you child in the care of staff and they do a great job. At the moment kids can exit on their own but a gate is soon to be installed that will prevent this. Get your wallet ready – I will explain why.

Every August a corner of Letna Park transforms into an Outdoor Contemporary Circus and Theatre festival. So for the next two weeks Prague residents are blessed with an array of affordable performances by local and international companies with a large proportion of these staged for children. Although Czech is the predominant language, many young children can enjoy the content regardless as many shows use non-verbal cues to enchant their young audience.

If you are after a more ‘realistic’ and ‘natural’ dinosaur experience with your kids, then this Moravian dinosaur park is definitely the way go. After having already seen 2 Dino Parks in the Czech Republic, namely Plzen Zoo and Galerie Harfa, which I absolutely adore, Vyskov’s DinoPark was a different kind of experience.
