Why this trip
Hardly any big city gives children as much room to ride, run and play as Amsterdam. From April to September the weather is changeable, but with a rain jacket and a hat the day outdoors stays possible, and the distances between playground, museum and canal are short. In the Vondelpark there are lawns, ponds and playgrounds, where you can take breaks when the children get tired, and the park is car-free. The Van Gogh Museum and the Rijksmuseum give school-age children a chance to discover paintings, if the visit stays short.
The A'DAM Lookout offers a view over the city and a swing over the edge that children love, but which should only be used with adults. When it rains, This is Holland is worth a visit, a flight experience over the country. Utrecht, The Hague and Rotterdam are reachable by train in a short time, so one base is enough. Bicycles are an everyday matter here, and children should stay close to the adults on the cycle paths.
Pickpockets are an issue at tourist spots, so wear rucksacks on your front. Pushchairs are sometimes hard going on the cobblestones.
