Tipped to be one of the city’s best kid’s amusement parks, Kidzoona is no ordinary indoor playhouse in Bangkok. Contained within the Gateway Shopping Mall, this sprawling recreational space is located in Molly Fantasy on the 5th floor of the popular retail complex. Frequented by local families as well as expats, Kidzooona is ranked among the most engaging spaces for children in Thailand’s bustling capital. Perfect for rainy days as well as times of the year when outdoor parks are too congested or too humid to play in, visitors can find both children and adults having a grand old time at this mammoth indoor playpen.
Open to visitors from 10am to 9pm, Kidzoona offers tickets that allow all-day access to the amusement park. Divided into a number of sections, the entire venue is uniformly bright coloured with interiors that inspire creativity and energy. Those who enter the space are required to wear socks and visitors will be well advised to come prepared. Staff is on hand to assist young ones onto slides and provide other forms of assistance although parents cannot leave children unattended.
The Toddler Zone is the locale’s softest play area as this section is geared towards the smallest of patrons. One finds a miniature spiral slide and a mini ball pool in this section as well as a sensory peg platform, music instruments and bricks and building blocks for creating towers and other structures. A post office, an ice cream parlour, a pizzeria and the Big Ben Tower are featured in the area dubbed Paper Town where a sushi store and a construction site are also part of the landscape.
The Active Zone on the other hand is for older children with inflatable hamster wheels, bumpy castles and a giant ball pool among its chief attributes. Covered in mats the entire area is child friendly with mats set up to avoid bruises. Fairground attractions such as 2 massive inflatable slides are also on-site while a tractor, trailer, bicycles and tricycles are on hand for adventurous kids at the Vehicle Zone.
Other intriguing regions of Kidzoona include the Make Believe quarter and the Quiet Corner where kids can engage in relaxing games and activities.
