Hier ist our guide to the Prince’s car collection museum.

Caves & Prehistoric Skeletons

Located in the Exotic Garden, the Museum of Prehistoric Anthropology houses evidence (huge skeletons and other cool artifacts) of animal and human life from the ice age and through all the major stages in the evolution of the human race. Founded by Prince Albert I in 1901, the museum aims to conserve relics of our past that have been excavated in and around the Principality of Monaco. The area around the Cote d’Azur is rich in prehistoric artifacts, many of which can be found in this fascinating museum. Children are welcome, there are lots of exhibits and activities specifically for them.

Part of the museum and gardens is a network of giant caves that you can tour. It gets chilly down there, so bring a jacket and wear jeans. Guaranteed to be memorable for kids.

Note: Strollers are not authorized in the garden; you can park them at the entrance. Dogs (regardless of their size) are not authorized in the Exotic Garden. There is a free kennel at the entrance.

Rainier III Nautical Stadium

Dieses olympische Schwimmbecken mit Blick auf das Meer inmitten des Port Hercule ist ein weiterer großartiger Ort für unterhaltsame Familienaktivitäten in Monaco. Es ist mit Sprungbrettern und Wasserrutschen ausgestattet.

During winter, from December to the beginning of March, this pool turns into an ice skating rink with music. From November to January, this area also hosts the Christmas Market.

Princess Antoinette Kids Park

For a place where children can play and adults can relax, go to Princess Antoinette Park. It is also one of the favorite places of the locals to have picnics with friends or family. It is foremost a garden for kids, as there are many play areas with swings, slides, roundabouts, and many others. An olive grove is in the center of the park.

Toddlers can play with sheep, goats, ducks, chickens, and rabbits in the mini-farm. No need to worry about the cleanliness of the place as caretakers make sure that the place is well-kept.

For sporty teens, there are places to play ball games, table tennis, badminton, and volleyball in the multi-purpose sports grounds. For teens, skateboarders have a separate place to have fun, too. There is also a mini-golf area with 18 holes for kids and adults alike.

Die neueste Ergänzung dieses schönen Ortes ist der „Zen Place“, wo Sie mitten im Park eine ruhige und friedliche Zeit verbringen können, während Ihre Kinder in der Nähe spielen.

Princess Grace Library

On a small street near the Prince’s Palace is the small but charming Princess Grace Irish Library — a perfect place for book lovers and young learners. The library has is a huge collection of books from Ireland, a personal collection of Princess Grace who has an Irish descent. The library, is of course, in honor of her.

Water Activities

There are many options for water activities, including snorkeling, swimming, scuba diving, boating, etc. You can charter a boat and go snorkeling off the coast of Monaco. Alternatively, you can go enjoy the beach in Larvotto, which has nets to keep your kids from getting stung by a jellyfish.

Tips for Traveling with Kids in the French Riviera

• Try not to let them be loud and disturb the people around you, as the French are very strict with their children frown upon kids being loud.
• We advise you not to take kids to attractions with exotic animals in captivity, such as Marineland, as it has been shown to teach them the wrong lessons.
• Bereiten Sie sich rechtzeitig auf Wutanfälle vor. Nehmen Sie sich während der Fahrt Zeit zum Kuscheln, bringen Sie das Lieblingskuscheltier Ihres Kindes mit und bereiten Sie sich auf Aktivitäten wie Spiele, lustige Lieder, Geschichtenerzählen usw. vor.
• Jet-lag is a big problem for almost all travelers. Stick to the local sleeping routine as strictly as possible. Short nap time during the day may help.
• Kids may feel homesick. It is better for them to maintain some communication with their friends at home. You can also help them deal with it by some fun activities like keeping a journal or drawing of your vacation or writing postcards.
