Barcelona, Spain: Fun Things to do with Kids

Barcelona Beach: When done sightseeing and shopping (which could take forever), spend some time on Barcelona's beach, only about a 25 minute walk from La Rambla. You can grab a meal or a coffee, ride the cable car, get around on a funky tricycle or just chill in the water. Perfect option for bubby's day out.





Barcelona Zoo: The Barcelona zoo is a fun place for someone who couldn't care less about cathedrals and architecture (read:  your toddler). With everything from lions to dolphins to wallabies, it's a good place for dad to take the baby to while mum goes out shopping. 






Magic Fountain of Montjuic: If you can keep the baby up till it gets dark (9ish in the summer), checking out the amazing spectacle at the Magic Fountains is a fun thing to do. The show lasts for about 10 minutes and runs every half an hour after dark and is mesmerizing for little children who love fountains and light and music. Note: don't stand too close or you will get sprayed!
