what’s on for kids
One nature & animals event is listed in Amsterdam so far, which is a short list and we say so rather than padding it. The venues putting them on include City Farm Osdorp. Dates are checked against the venue's own listing, and anything that has finished drops off this page by itself.

Amsterdam is a small city to be a child in, which is its great advantage: almost nothing is more than twenty minutes away by bike or tram, and the GVB carries under-fours free. The centre is where the big museums and the canal boats are, and it is also where the crowds and the cobbles are, so a buggy does better in the ring of parks around it — the Vondelpark, the Westerpark, the Oosterpark, the Amstelpark. Every neighbourhood has a free kinderboerderij and a playground within walking distance, and most cafés will find you a high chair without being asked.
