Things to do with Kids in Miami
Welcome to Greater Miami and Beaches, a city famous for it’s white sand beaches and warm Atlantic ocean. When i was planning a trip to Miami , i had lots of activities planned in which both parents and Kids can have fun.Here is our list of the 10 Things to do with Kids in Miami :
Before i continue, A big Thanks to Miami Tourism Board & Eden Roc Miami Beach Hotel for Hosting us in exchange for this Blog Post.
1.Everglades Alligator Farm :
When i was planning my trip to Miami, Everglades Alligator Farm was on top my ‘Things to do with kids” . I believe, a visit to Miami is incomplete without a visit to Everglades.You will get to see alot of alligators on your airboat ride. We also saw the alligator show, alligator feeding, the snack show and Bird Feeding.The best part is you will get to hold the Snack and a baby Alligator after the shows.
Location : 40351 SW 192nd Ave, Homestead, FL 33034
Admission : Adult : 28$; Kids : 21$
Parking : FREE

2. Jungle Island :
This is the best place to go with kids as it has so many interactive exhibits. My favorite was the interaction with Macaws which also makes a great photo opp and the bird show which you wouldn’t wanna miss. They also have water activities for kids like Bouncy water House , Mini Boat rides and a beach. Miami can get pretty hot and humid so water activities are the best way to beat the heat.
Location : 1111 Parrot Jungle Trail, Miami, FL 33132
General Admission : Adult : 50$ ; Kids(3-10) : 38$
Parking : 8$/Day

3. Miami Zoo :
You can never go wrong with a Zoo when you are travelling with kids and Miami Zoo is a fun interactive place where not just your kids but also you as adults will have fun. You will have lots for opportunities to feed the birds and animals like Giraffe, Tortoise, Camels etc and not just these, you can take a ride on a camel too.If you have limited time and want to look around the entire place then You can rent a surrey bike for 26$ which is good for 2 adults and 2 kids.

4. Monkey Jungle :
A great place specially if you have kids. Would recommend doing the Rain forest tour which is $89 plus tax and it included the entrance fee and 40 minutes of feeding time with the squirrel monkeys. This is such a great opportunity to take selfies and feed the cute little monkeys.
Location : 14805 SW 216th St, Miami, FL 33170

5. Cruise Around with Island Queen Cruises :
What’e better than a cruise to enjoy a relaxing afternoon or a evening sunset?? Island Queen Cruises in the Miami Beach has spectacular coastal sites including the beautiful downtown Miami skyline, the Port of Miami, Fisher Island, Miami Beach and Millionaire’s Row – the homes of the rich and famous.This is the best thing to do when your kids are tired after a long day of exploring as it is a fully laid-back sightseeing experience.

6. Vizcaya Museum and Gardens:
Vizcaya Museum and Gardens are the Greatest Treasures of Miami with its stunning architecture.It has Beautiful gardens, and a wonderful historic house with rich architecture. We just walked around the museum by our own and it was a great experience. Each room has detailed explanations of their purpose and old photos of what they used to look like. There is gardens too where kids can have fun and You can easily spend a good -half day here if it’s your first visit.I found this place very romantic and it definitely makes a good photo spot for your special day.

7. Phillips and Patrica Science Frost :
The Highlight of this museum for me is the 500,000 gallon three story aquarium aquarium which can be viewed from below through a 31 foot wide lens and is the largest aquarium viewer which is absolutely breathtaking.There are tons of activities for kids in here like stingray feeding pool as well as a massive shark tank where they allow you to view the feedings.

8. Little Havana :
This vibrant street is known for its Cuban restaurants and Cuban bakeries and colorful street festivals. If you and your kids are Foodie then i would highly recommended tasting the Cuban flavor here.
Parking : Paid Street Parking
9. Bus Tour:
If you are running out of time and want to see some highlights of Miami then I would recommend taking a Bus tour. We took a 3 hour Night tour where we discovered the streets of Miami also had a quick stop at Little Havana and a spot overlooking Miami Skyline. I would highly recommend taking this tour on your first day of Miami Trip as it gives you a idea of the places which interests you.
Location : 401 Biscayne Blvd S225, Miami, FL 33132
10. Miami Beach :
When you think of Miami the first thing which comes to your mind is the sandy beach with the sun shining. And with kids , beach is always a win to spend couple of hours. As we were staying at Eden Roc Miami Beach Hotel, Beach was in our backyard.
Hotel Recommendations :
I would definitely recommend staying at Eden Roc Miami Beach Hotel for so many reasons but the most important is that it’s Family Friendly.The BECO program they have for kids is the best where they have many activities to keep your kids entertained while you relax at the pool or beach.

The number 1 looks already good, and then I kept on reading, I realized, the kids would definitely have the best times of their life if they got to experience all these things.

You just gave me some ideas to do with the kids this weekend. I’ve always seen Miami as the center for museums and aquariums. I forgot about their zoos and other local attractions.
