From zoos and aquariums to amusement parks and beaches, Vancouver is home to countless kid-friendly attractions and its family-friendly museums are some of the very best. Here are three that you should visit with your entire family while exploring one of Canada’s largest cities.
Burnaby Village Museum
If you’re a huge fan of open-air museums, Burnaby Village Museum will be your favorite place in all of Vancouver. This living history museum authentically recreates a 1920s village, but keep in mind that you can’t visit it whenever you want because it’s usually open between May and September.
Beaty Biodiversity Museum
Natural history museums are usually a great fit for family-friendly visits and Beaty Biodiversity Museum is Vancouver’s most popular attraction that falls under this category. Its collection includes around two million specimens and the youngest visitors will be impressed by Canada’s largest blue whale skeleton.
Science World
Vancouver’s most popular science center offers exhibits for visitors of all ages. Its interactive science displays and films for kids are dedicated to everyone from toddlers to early teens, and approximately millions of visitors explore them each year.
