KidZania Dubai replicates a tiny indoor city where the streets are filled with offices, a bank, fire stations, restaurants, and hospitals. Like a modern day (but bigger) Bourton-on-the- Water, it is the built to scale and comes with vehicles and paved streets.
Children get to live out their dream careers for the day this mini but functioning economy, role-playing up to 80 adult professions including doctors, chefs, journalists, teachers and firefighters. You can make your own chocolate in a chocolate factory, assist in dental surgery, learn how make a Pizza Express pizza or edit your own TV show. Don’t miss the KidZania Space Centre where, although you cannot actually launch into space, kids get to learn about the universe and astronauts using simulated attractions with an optional Virtual Reality space walk.
Children even earn money and are paid in KidZania currency which can be redeemed at the stores inside. Think of it less as child labour and more of a fun careers fair with take home chocolate wages.
