When it comes to keeping your children occupied, you can choose from a multitude of family fun activities in Toronto. The chosen activities in the metropolis are all near your furnished apartment, with the exception of a few great day trips, that are must-sees just outside of the city. Here are a few of our favourite places to spend with your loved ones of all ages.<\/p>\n

\"Family<\/a>Ripley\u2019s Aquarium of Canada<\/a><\/strong>
\nRipley\u2019s is an interactive and educational experience for the whole family. Discover over 16,000 aquatic creatures and be mesmerized by the the longest underwater viewing tunnel in North America. The daily dive shows are also a treat and may inspire your little ones to become a scuba diver one day. Special experiences include birthday parties<\/a> and sleepovers.<\/a><\/p>\n

Harbourfront Centre<\/strong><\/a>
\nWhether you\u2019re visiting during major holidays or on breaks (March Break, Summer), there is always something for the kids to do here. Enroll your kids in a camp, a lesson (sailing, skating) or attend one of the many events here that happen every season. If you\u2019re just taking a walk around the area, explore the fun, free structures around the area like the Simcoe Wave Deck. It\u2019s right near our furnished condo at 300 Front<\/a> Street.<\/p>\n

Riverdale Farm<\/strong><\/a>
\nThis free attraction can be combined with an exploration of both the historic Cabbagetown neighbourhood and Riverdale Park. Known as Toronto\u2019s first zoo, it closed in 1974 to relocate to Scarborough. You can still see the remains of three of the original zoo buildings at the farm (Donnybrook Ruin, the Island House, and the Resident Zookeeper\u2019s House). Not only is the farm and its surrounding area a great way to see the animals, it\u2019s a great way to learn about Toronto\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

The AGO <\/a>and ROM<\/a><\/strong>
\nBoth the Art Gallery of Ontario and the Royal Ontario Museum offer a number of educational and cultural activities and camps for kids of all ages.<\/p>\n

The Toronto Zoo<\/strong><\/a>
\n\"Family Explore the wildlife and wildlife spaces in a fun and interactive way. Divided into seven zoogeographic regions (from Africa to the Tundra Trek), there are a variety of animals and geographies to discover with your kids. Features include the New Gorilla Climb Ropes courses, the Xie Shou Giant Panda Experience and interpretive centre, the Great Barrier Reef exhibit, and the Kids Discovery Zone (including a splash pad and bird shows).<\/p>\n

High Park<\/strong><\/a>
\nAs one of Toronto\u2019s largest park, High Park offers plenty of family fun activities in Toronto. Walk around the park and bring your kids to the Jamie Bell Adventure Park across from the Duck Pond. Down the trail, the free zoo<\/a> is an added bonus. The kids will love learning about the lamas, buffalos, bisons, deer, and peacocks on display. In the spring, the cherry blossoms are a scenic display for an afternoon walk.<\/p>\n

Centre Island<\/strong><\/a>
\nThis main island, located on the Toronto Islands, is a great day trip for your kit and caboodle. Although closed for the 2014 season, during the summertime, pack a picnic, travel on the ferry to the island, and check out the amusement park, Centreville, with over 30 rides, both land and water based. Nearby, the Far Enough Farm offers over 40 different species of farmyard animals and exotic birds on display. If your kids are a bit older, you can ride bikes around the various islands to the beaches and find those picturesque spots to view the city skyline. There really is nothing like the Islands on a sunny day!<\/p>\n

Treetop Trekking<\/strong>
\nFor the adventurous family who has the time to travel to the Greater Toronto Area, Brampton Park offers treetop aerial game and zip line adventures. Swing like Tarzan and balance on logs and suspended bridges in the popular zip line and aerial course tour; or zip on the various lines with your kit and caboodle. Older kids can participate \"Family<\/a>in the night treks. Do check the minimum ages for each activity.<\/p>\n

Niagara Falls<\/strong><\/a>
\nA great day trip away from Toronto, the falls introduces your kids to one of the wonders of the world and can be explored from atop or below through various tours like the Maid of the Mist<\/a> or Whirlpool jet boat. Beyond the falls, there are a variety of fun activities like a bird kingdom, a butterfly sanctuary, fun houses, and dinosaur adventure golf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
