A pleasant place to relax with children is the Stichting Aap Zoo. It is located in the picturesque park Stadslangoed De Kemphaan. It is difficult to call it a zoo in the usual sense of the word. It originally opened as a shelter for abandoned monkeys. Once they were one of the most popular domestic pets among locals, but not everyone succeeded in getting on with the wild animals. Many monkeys were on the street. The townspeople, who were not indifferent to the disaster, discovered a wonderful shelter for them. Today, apart from the spacious enclosures in which monkeys live, you can see other animals known to all in the zoo. Children will be able to feed the guinea pigs and goats, as well as learn how the recently opened farm in the zoo works. For children, there are many recreation areas with carousels and swings. In the warm season, the zoo is buried in the abundance of greenery.
The most children's museum in the city is the Veiligheids museum PIT. It is designed for young visitors. In this museum, children will be able to get acquainted with the peculiarities of various professions and even independently try themselves in the role of a policeman or a fireman. This museum is interesting for visiting with children of young age. Here, interesting interactive expositions, police and fire engines are prepared for them. In the popular museum, you can literally touch all the exhibits. A nice addition to the rest will be the presence of a cozy cafe with a huge selection of sweets in the museum.
