Day by day
Day 1: Arrival in Dubai. The Burj Khalifa towers high, and the viewing platform shows city, sea and desert. For arrival a visit in the evening is enough, when the sun is lower. Down at the Dubai Mall fountain children see water displays set to music. Save your strength, as the distances are long, and fill the drinking bottles beforehand.
Day 2: Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo. In the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo sharks and rays glide through a glass tunnel above your heads. There are also feedings and encounters with sea creatures. It is all air-conditioned inside the Dubai Mall, ideal for hot days. School-age children can count animals on a map. In between you take a break in a café in the mall.
Day 3: Dubai Frame. The Dubai Frame stands like a golden picture frame in Zabeel Park. At the top you look at the old and new of the city, and below an exhibition explains the history. The park around it offers lawns for tired children. Go in the morning, as later the sun burns here without shade.
Day 4: Burj Park. Burj Park lies on a small island with lawn and viewpoints of the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain. In the evening it is a quiet place for a picnic. Children run across the grass while you sit and watch. Bring a blanket and keep an eye on the water bottles, as sales stands are scarce.
Day 5: The Museum of the Future. The Museum of the Future recalls an eye in its shape and shows ideas of tomorrow. Children experience rooms with light, sound and technology, and some areas are designed especially for younger ones. The corridors are air-conditioned and accessible. Go early to keep the wait short, and plan a lunch break.
Day 6: Ski Dubai. IMG Worlds of Adventure is a huge indoor amusement park with characters from Cartoon Network and Marvel. Small children are drawn to the cartoon characters, bigger ones to the roller coasters. Afterwards you switch to Ski Dubai: snow in the middle of the desert, with a toboggan run and penguins. Put on gloves, as the hall is really cold.
Day 7: Farewell to Dubai. The Dubai Dolphinarium offers dolphin and seal shows in an air-conditioned building. Think in advance about whether you want to support such a programme. A visit shortly before departure is uncomplicated, as the show does not last long. Plan the drive to Dubai Airport for the morning, because traffic increases towards midday.
