- KidZania is allowing parents to participate in activities with their children this summer, breaking its usual rules.
- The campaign, "Parents Play This Summer," aims to create family memories through shared play and challenges.
- Special activities are available at KidZania locations in Mexico City, Monterrey, and Guadalajara until August 31.
KidZania, the popular interactive city for children, is temporarily dismantling its usual spectator role for adults, inviting parents to join their kids in the fun this summer. Under the campaign "Los papรกs juegan este verano" (Parents Play This Summer), parents can now actively participate in the various professional role-playing activities alongside their children.
The initiative is designed to foster stronger family bonds by encouraging parents and children to work together, face challenges, and discover new skills as a team. This offers a unique opportunity for families to create lasting memories by stepping into roles like firefighters, chefs, doctors, pilots, and more, side-by-side.
KidZania has introduced special activities and stations, including an aviation academy, ramen factory, radio station, fashion studio, hospital, pizzeria, dental clinic, and fire station. The specific activities may vary by location. To enhance the experience, adults will receive their own "passports" to engage fully in the city's offerings.
This special summer program is available at KidZania branches in Santa Fe and Cuicuilco in Mexico City, as well as in Monterrey and Guadalajara. The promotion runs only until August 31, offering a limited-time chance for families to enjoy these interactive experiences together. Ticket prices vary, starting from 299 pesos for select activities to 499 pesos for unlimited access at certain locations.
