Kids activities in Maastricht: the Natural History Museum, the Bonnefanten Museum with its family programming and Vrijthof square sit close together in the Sphinxkwartier and city centre. These family activities also work well around a visit to Fort Sint Pieter with its unique cave complex. What to do with kids in Maastricht? A cycle along the Maas, a visit to the medieval city gates and a pancake restaurant in the Wyck combine into a varied day out with kids. Whether you need an idea for today, tomorrow, or the weekend, Maastricht usually has something close by. Activities for kids and other kids events pop up throughout the year, from Vrijthof festivals to museum workshops. With its car-free city centre, Maastricht works well for a school trip with a group of children. Babies do well with quiet spots and baby concerts, toddlers enjoy the Maas promenade and playgrounds, preschoolers discover petting zoos and simple play areas, and school-age children usually pick the cave tour at Fort Sint Pieter and the Bonnefanten Museum.

In the upcoming months, there are plenty of activities for families with children in Maastricht. For the youngest ones, enchanting shows like 'Kluizelaar' (2+) at Theater aan het Vrijthof present a visual story about being alone and finding your way home. 'OM en OM en OM' (1.5+) also offers a musical experience for the little ones. Toddlers can enjoy 'The Knight Without a Bottom' (3+) in the same theater, a hilarious adventure about a knight who loses his backside. For preschoolers, exciting performances like 'Stuntman' (4+) and 'Aladdin The Musical' (4+) provide a mix of adventure and music. Children aged 6 to 12 can join the family walk in the ENCI quarry, where they learn about the animals of the past and present, or the 'Kid's Cave Expedition' (4-10 years) that takes them on an adventurous journey through the caves. Additionally, the 'Born to Play' exhibition for children aged 6 to 12 at the Natural History Museum invites them to get creative. Maastricht offers a wealth of opportunities for a fun and educational family outing!
