This weekend - things to do for UAE kids and family (October 1st onward)
Hope this helps you find something.

Hope this helps you find something.
It's kind of a wide spread: sports, entertainment, puppets, theatre, music, book reading, cars...and more. I hope you find something for you and your fam.
Hope you guys find someting that you want to go to. I've been meaning to go to Inflatable Giant in Barsha (it's not on the list), but if I do (and it's semi decent), it'll be there on next week's list.
Hope some of these help!
hope some of these help.
I tried to go beyond the usual play areas and malls. There's a fighter jet simulation for older kids (15+), the World Jujitsu Championships (including U14) in AbuDhabi is free for all, there's a free Celebrate Japan thingy in Times Square Mall (comics, cosplay, performances, etc), KPop classes (Free) at the Korean Cultural Centre in Dubai, and a new play area (sorry) Zamania in Ibn Battuta Mall, that THEY say is for all ages...but I can't say....because I haven't been. Hope these help!
The children's interactive museum at the Louvre looks awesome. It's good for kids 4-12...and free. Also, on Saturday they're playing Aladdin, the old one, the one with Robin Williams at 6pm...free. Has anyone done the one million prompters course from the govt? The course modules look ok, not comprehensive, but a good starting point. And if you're in Sharjah, 2 more weeks of the happy holiday camp left. 150 aed per week. Well, hope these help.
I've listed all these events lol, but my mood right now is to stay and watch shows (still involve the kids?) or, low-key, one of those Free events. I do have a backup plan, though. The kids somehow have gotten the MJackson craze, so maybe the movie Michael on Saturday. Well, hope these help.
Hope these help. Modesh is back, younger kids will def like it. It's free entry. Overall, Dubai Summer Surprises has a few things going on in different malls that'll appeal to kids. Btw, if you want to use the track/gym at Dubai Sports World, it's free. And if you've wondered what to do with the kids (if younger), they have a kids' area that's 60aed for 2 hours.
Hope this helps. The stargazing one and the world camel day event are the ones I'm most interested in. I think, timing-wise (sleepy kids, whatnot), most likely going to the Camelicious one. And it's been a while since I've tried their ice cream :)
Hope this helps. In case I wasn't clear, the citywide Kids Go Free campaign extends to a LOT of places - I've just listed out a few. And also, it's not free free, iykwim, adults purchase, and the kids go free.
Hope this helps. To be honest, the gaming one, the main event, seems to be quite cool. I went with the kids last year, and there are tons of free games to play. I sucked, but they had fun. All curated, nothing sponsored, just what I felt could be interesting.
To be honest, the gaming one seems
Hope this helps. I left out all the malls - they all have something going on. Also, most soft play areas for the younger kids have some offer or another going on.
