Wereldmuseum Amsterdam is an interactive museum, also for children and families. Explore engaging activities together with your family that are suitable for everyone. The museum offers plenty of opportunities for an educational and enjoyable day out in Amsterdam. Check out our overview of family activities below and plan your visit to discover the world in a new way!
In Raad van de Raaf, you will meet Dutch Raymi and Greenland's Ivalu. They belong to the Raad van de Raaf, a club of children who work together for the climate. Raymi and Ivalu introduce you to people from Greenland, Peru, Morocco and Bangladesh, who show how they live with climate change. In the children's exhibition, there are lots of activities for children. Test your balance in hunter Lars' kayak, step on Greenland Malik's dogsled or listen to the sound of the melting ice caps.
Our party shop is a cheery, family venue where you can find things from all over the world that are used in all kinds of different celebrations. Every day somewhere in the world, something is being celebrated. We don’t all share the same celebrations, but we all like a party. Take a look around in our party shop and discover celebrations you didn’t know existed. Do our music quiz, learn a festive dance or pick the best party outfit!
