A fantastic day out for kids who get to try out several different jobs under one roof, from firefighter, police officer to window cleaner, vet, cabin crew and pilot. They earn Kidzania money and get to spend it in the shop at the end of their visit. My only criticisms: 1) you need to earn a LOT of Kidzania cash to buy anything in the shop and can't use real cash if you don't have enough which is really poor and meant my son ended a great day out in tears because he couldnt afford to buy anything (an unnecessary lesson for a five year old), 2) kids are sent off on their own (unsupervised) to do tasks when they 'working' which really isn't safe in such a crowded environment so be prepared to follow your kid around a lot. Fantastic concept though.
