Kid’s Journey 2569 – Discover the World on Thailand’s Children’s Day

This Children’s Day, trade in traditional gifts for “experiences” where kids can get hands-on, explore, experiment, and have fun with the whole family. The best learning happens not just in the classroom, but with every step of the journey.

From dynamic movement in a modern indoor playground to gazing up at the vast universe, running wild in nature, getting up close with animals, and catching real ocean waves—each experience nurtures courage, curiosity, and smiles in a way no book can.

For Children’s Day 2569, we invite families to spend quality time together at 5 locations that are fun, safe, and packed with out-of-classroom learning. Let your children be completely themselves, and turn this special day into a truly memorable time.
