Activities fit for a toddler
July 23rd, 2008
Thinking of activities for your toddler might seem daunting. But there's loads to do that won't bore them or irritate you...
Window to South Africa’s oceans: Two Ocean’s Aquarium
Besides being one of the top tourist attractions in Cape Town, your child’s sure to marvel at over 3 000 living sea animals. There’s everything from sharks to fish, turtles and penguins.
At the Holcim Children's Play Centre your babies are allowed to express themselves through drawing, painting and clay modeling. Peter the Penguin will do a daily puppet show as your child participates in song and dance.
There are nappy changing facilities’ available. At your disposal and free of charge are a limited number of baby carriers. You can enquire at the Visitor Services desk.

Discover these toddler delights with these special packages
Explore Camps Bay
No, I’m not suggesting you take your little one for a swim in the heart of winter. What I am saying is that you let your baby revel in the sand. Collecting sea shells and sea pebbles is like discovering diamonds to your kid! Take a bucket and spade… maybe they can bury the dog.

Welcome to Monkey Town
Get ready for some monkey business. There are 27 different species of monkeys and are over 200 individual monkeys for your kids to see. What’s even more exciting is that you’ll see monkeys roam freely in the meandering covered walkways. It’s open daily from 9am – 5pm.

Kicking it at the West Coast Ostrich Ranch
You’ll appreciate the pleasant drive through the Boland wheat lands. What’s cool is that guides meet you at the entrance. It’s here that you decide whether to do the tour or just feed the ostriches!
If you opt for the tour, you’ll be rewarded with an informative but fun one. You’ll discover everything from the size of their brains to why it is that they stick their heads in the ground!
I was surprised to discover that there are two varieties of ostriches, namely the dwarf and albinos. Another uncanny fact is that it’s a relative of the emus and rheas. Your toddler will no doubt be wowed by any sight of this giant bird.
Adults pay R32 and children under six are free.

Thanks for the tips!
After some ballistic beach-hopping with baby, we toned down our Super-Saturday with an afternoon visit to the aquarium. Needless to say our 13 monther was completely mesmerized by all the colors of the ocean. Fascinated by fabulous fish and entertained by pompous penguins, she twittered and googood away as we made our way through the various levels. Amid colorful clown fish, sensational seahorses and titanic turtles our little one seemed to be absorbed in the somewhat surreal undersea realm. No wailing and moaning as we watched a musical kids show at the Holcim Play Center and after two well spent hours, she gave a little yawn, sipped on her seadowner (that would be the 'powdery, milky, non-alcoholic type') and fell alseep watching the manta rays dance to a never-ending coral concerto. Surprisingly, its not all for kids and a rather cheeky display of watching sea-anemones mate was enough to make any barnacle blush. A mortifying experience of standing too close to the shark-tank had put a reasonable uncertainty on my shark-cage diving enthusiasms for December. Lesson learned: Fish are fun for babies - so I immediately went out and bought a bunch of fishy-fun movies: Finding Nemo, A Shark's tale and the Little Mermaid to name a few.
