Things to see and do with kids in Moscow

It might seem like a daunting task finding attractions and activities that kids on holiday in Moscow will enjoy, but look a little closer at this fascinating and historic city and you'll find there are a few things that will spark interest for children.

The Obraztov Puppet Theater features performances for children during the day, while animal lovers should head to the Moscow Cat Theater where domestic cats perform a multitude of acrobatic tricks. The Moscow Dolphinarium will delight with dolphins, whales, seals, and sea lions performing tricks, balancing balls and jumping through hoops, while older kids may take interest in the historic value of the Kremlin, but even younger children will delight in the sheer size of the Tsar Cannon and Tsar Bell, which makes for a great attraction while out and about in the city.

For something a little more soothing, enjoy a boat ride through the city where the kids can't run out of sight and the constantly changing architecture and landscape will show them a side of Moscow they'd never see.
