Billy Beez

Take the children to Billy Beez for some fast paced fun. It’s the ultimate indoor soft play experience for thrill seekers aged 3 and up. Kids will love climbing to dizzy heights and crossing aerial walkways before descending giant slides, the tube ones are particularly fast and furious! There’s even more fun to be had with the ballistic ball shooters. Kids team up to battle it out shooting, dodging and collecting an endless supply of soft foam balls.

Arts and crafts are a simple, fun and satisfying activity for all ages and abilities. Whether it’s creating a spaceship from an old cardboard tube or making a hedgehog from a paper plate, your child will love getting creative and having something to show for their hard work.

Don’t panic if you’re not a natural, there are some great ideas online and a visit to Al Shark (Kuwaiti Souk) is the perfect place to stock up on all things crafty.
