10 Things We Love About KidZania Manila
KidZania is an education and entertainment indoor theme park that allows children to role-play adult activities in a replica city designed to simulate real-life and a functioning economy – it aims to help children develop a sense of vocation and learn about the adult world and how a real city works.
I’m quite tired today, I want to rest but I know you’ve been waiting for a sneak peek of what will be in store for you at KidZania Manila. After I posted some pictures on my Instagram today, I received a lot of inquiries about KidZania’s location and prices. Mommies I can feel your excitement!

10 Things We Love About KidZania Manila
1. SECURITY My son’s security is very important to me, and I know it is for you too.
When you check-in your kids at the Kidzania’s boarding area, they will have a bracelet that can only be removed by a special device.
Their bracelet is connected to yours, it includes the kids name and your name. The place as I see it was so secured. Kids cannot leave the area on their own or with other people.
2. LEARN ABOUT MONEY Upon entering, they will give you a check worth 50 KidZos (the money of KidZania).
They will exchange it at Bank of the Philippine Island for a real KidZos money.
They can use the kidzos to save in the bank or spend on different products and services available at establishments in KidZania Manila.
3. EARN, SPEND and RELAX At KidZania, the kids rule. It’s their mini world and here they will learn how to earn, budget their money to spend and relax too. Ren was able to earn some kidzos on some areas like: Firestation as a Firefighter
Holiday Inn Hotel as a Receptionist
He spent 15 kidZos at the following area:
Purefoods for Chicken Nuggets
A1 Driving Institute for his Driver’s License that he need to be able to go to
Shell Gas Station to experience driving their own car and follow the street rules.
He had fun and had a relaxing time at Star Music where he was able to play a real piano with other kids.
Now playing the piano at StarMusic area. Ang saya lang ng bagets!

National Bookstore where he enjoyed reading books.
He also tried Cebu Pacific area by being a pilot.
Plan your visit by checking the areas here- manila.kidzania.com/en-ph/activities/acting-academy
4. ENGLISH SPEAKING CREW
Yes, all of the crew speaks using the English language. In today’s generation most of our kids understand this language and thus it will be very easy for them to follow instructions.
5. TRAIN AN INDEPENDENT KIDS
KidZania Manila empowers kids to explore independently. Parents are not allowed to enter the store, they can only take pictures outside the area. Don’t worry as what I saw when they handled Ren, they are well trained. There are enough people to handle the kids inside the store too.
6. KIDS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS ARE WELCOME
For PWD individuals, they can join other kids provided that they are accompanied by 1 companion.
7. LEARN NEW LANGUAGE
At KidZania they have a different kind of language.
Kai = Hello
Thank you = Zenkyu
See you- Z.U.
Whatever = ZZZZZZZZ
Friend = Kal
Expression of Surprise = Zaz!!
8. FREE WI-FI
I was able to post pictures on my Instagram using their FREE Wi-Fi and during our visits it was fast.
9. VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY
Most activities inside KidZania Manila last from 15-25 minutes and kids can complete about 7-8 activities per visit. The entrance fee is good for one shift that can last for 5 hours. We were able to stay for 3 hours and I tell you there are a lot of areas that Ren was not able to try.
10. BPI ATM
There’s a reason to keep coming back. After earning kidzos you can deposit it at the BPI bank and they will give you an ATM that you can use in the ATM Machines around the area to encash it and use it again.
Ren wants to go back here again. I told him to save P750.00 to be able to come back hahaha. KidZania Manila is really an awesome place for kids. It will be open to the public on August 7, visit it and tell me what you think.

Kenny says
This is a place for kids to have real fun and at the same time learning how to make money. Although not many will understand and appreciate the intention of the place but sooner or later they will.
Chris Turner says
I would suggest that full price for under 6’s is not reasonable. This age group cannot participate in very many of the activities because there is a minimum age requirement of 6. I would also suggest that solitary 4 year olds, unless quite precocious or having older siblings accompanying them, will lose out, finding it all a bit overwhelming so not properly participating.
Having said that the staff were all very nice and the place is well run.
Mommy Levy says
I agree, wait for your kid/s to reach the suggested age before bringing them there so that they can appreciate the place and activities more. Mas sulit din.
Jackie says
We’re definitely going to go there soon as we can! My friends have been posting about it and even though my daughter’s still quite young I really want to take her there!
Btw is there a nursing room there pala? Because I also plan to bring my 3 month old 🙂
Mommy Levy says
I did not notice a breastfeeding area, sorry can’t answer your question.
Glaiza Binayas says
Nakakatuwa! ^__^ I’ll tell my sister about this so he could bring her son! Thank you Mommy Levy! ?
dianne says
heard so many things about kidzania too! sayang my son is turning 1 pa lang this Wednesday. But I’m so looking forward to see it on December 🙂
Mommy Anna says
wow nice kids will love it talaga , sayang we are not able to come during media launch exam week ni little kulit. Super enjoy si Ren 🙂
Mommy Levy says
sobrang enjoy si Ren. We will return!
EINz says
Wow! Sulit naman pala talaga ang entrance fee. We are planning to go there hopefully this month. I will check again next week for the online ticket reservation.
Btw, was it suitable for toddlers? No doubt my 7yr.old son would definitely adore the place… but, you think my 2yr.old daughter can appreciate it?
Mommy Levy says
There’s an area for little kids kaso for practical mom like me, I will just wait for her to turn 4 para mas madami sya mapuntahan. Yes I’m sure yung 7 yr.old son will love the place
MrsMartinez says
Ang cute naman! Parang real life na talaga ah!
