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 (0-1 years), there are enchanting performances like 'OM en OM en OM' at Theater aan het Vrijthof, a musical experience designed for the little ones. Toddlers (2-3 years) can enjoy 'Kluizelaar', a visual show that takes them on an exciting journey. For preschoolers (4-5 years), the Natuurhistorisch Museum Maastricht offers creative workshops during the summer vacation, where they can learn about nature and engage in crafting activities. Children aged 6-12 can participate in the 'Mosasaurus Race' on the family day on August 23 at the same museum, where they can create and race their own boats. Additionally, the 'Born to Play' exhibition invites them to get creative with various art projects. Maastricht truly offers a wealth of opportunities for a fun and educational family outing!
