Where to celebrate Children’s Day in Bangkok
Sansiri Backyard
Sansiri Backyard is partnering with SCB, IKEA, and Envicco to bring you a wide array of activities and workshops the little ones can enjoy. Walking through a house full of different butterfly species, harvesting mulberries and making your own smoothies, recycling plastic pellets into hair clips — it’s the perfect destination to have your kids get in touch with nature.
You can find more information at Sansiri Backyard.
Rain Tree Cafe Bangkok
As you’re sampling succulent food from Rain Tree Cafe, have your kids enjoy some face painting, fun cookie decorations, and magic performances. The cafe is certainly going to be filled with smiles and laughter throughout the afternoon. Children under 12 years get to dine for free as well.
You can find more information at Rain Tree Cafe Bangkok.
Open House at Central Embassy
From 12-14 January, Open House turns into a village of fun and joy. Upon registration, kids will each receive a passport and a location to visit within the village symbolised by an animal, as well as a house scarf that allows them to check out six activities throughout the area. Construct a sustainable metropolis, decorate cupcakes, discover dinosaur fossils in the sand pit, and more — let your kids and their imagination run wild.

Mexicano Restaurant
For a poolside Saturday brunch session, Mexicano has all the things you’ll need this Children’s Day. They’re bringing in a balloon clown, piñatas, games of musical chairs, and more. Couple those with the special kids’ menu, and the whole family will have something to look forward to. There’s also a costume contest with the theme of “dream job.”
You can find more information at Mexicano Restaurante Autentico.
Alliance Française de Bangkok
The itinerary is full of fun at Alliance Française, and they have different activities perfect for every age group. Whether you want to create unique bracelets, watch a film in their cinema, or see a magic show, they have curated everything for the whole family — and it’s also still fun for those who do not know a lick of French. Entry is free of charge, but make sure you register as spots for activities are quite limited.
