Barcelona is a thriving tourist hub in Southern Spain that has much to offer the European bound traveler. Our own Julia Dimon, family travel expert and mama of two, took her family to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Barcelona.d179992.Destination-Travel-Guides?mcicid=page.Inspire.Gnomads.julia-dimon.5-memorable-things-to-do-in-barcelona-with-kids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barcelona<\/a> to explore the city through the eyes of a child. Julia shares some of the best things to do in Barcelona with kids.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>While I have done quite a bit of traveling through other parts of Spain (from Madrid to San Sebastian) somehow the vibrant city of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Barcelona.d179992.Destination-Travel-Guides?mcicid=page.Inspire.Gnomads.julia-dimon.5-memorable-things-to-do-in-barcelona-with-kids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barcelona<\/a> had escaped me. &nbsp;So when I stumbled upon an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Destinations-In-Spain.d166.Flight-Destinations?mcicid=page.Inspire.Gnomads.julia-dimon.5-memorable-things-to-do-in-barcelona-with-kids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">amazing flight deal to Spain<\/a> and couldn\u2019t resist. I booked tickets for all of us \u2013 my husband and two kids (ages 1 and 3 years old). &nbsp;Barcelona, of all places, is a particularly family-friendly city. The locals infamously love children and, in my experience, are wildly friendly to foreigners who have them (one waiter in particular at a Greek restaurant literally spoon fed my son for the entire meal). There are a ton of playgrounds across the city, with many child-friendly tourist attractions. Parents here have cleverly created play spaces in the middle of restaurant lined squares, so mom can have a sangria while watching junior play. &nbsp;Here are some of the best things to do in Barcelona with kids.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Playground Sagrada Fam\u00edlia<\/strong><\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-21456 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sagradafamiliaplayground-e1513368313513.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sagradafamiliaplayground-e1513368313513.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sagradafamiliaplayground-e1513368313513-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sagradafamiliaplayground-e1513368313513-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sagradafamiliaplayground-e1513368313513-400x250.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<p>A visit to Gaud\u00ed\u2019s iconic Roman Church is #1 on most travelers\u2019 hit lists. After you\u2019ve walked the circumference of this awe-inspiring basilica, marveled at the schizophrenic architecture and breadth of the on-going construction, check out the playground across the street from the Sagrada Fam\u00edlia. Nestled in the Park Pla\u00e7a de la Sagrada Fam\u00edlia, this playground gives the kiddos a chance to run around, rope climb, slide and bounce out their energy. As the kiddos frolick around on the jungle gym, parents can have lunch and take in the spectacular Sagrada Fam\u00edlia backdrop. If you decide to go into the Sagrada, be sure to book your tickets online in advance from their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sagradafamilia.org\/en\/tiquets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website.&nbsp;<\/a>This will save you hours of waiting in line. Children under 10 are free and audio guides are available to children 12 years old and older.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Hop On Hop Off Bus Tour<\/strong><\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-21466 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Barcelonabuswithgrandparent-e1513368486929.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Barcelonabuswithgrandparent-e1513368486929.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Barcelonabuswithgrandparent-e1513368486929-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Barcelonabuswithgrandparent-e1513368486929-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Barcelonabuswithgrandparent-e1513368486929-400x250.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<p>Hop on hop off sightseeing bus tours are my guilty pleasure. Yes, they are super touristy (the snobby seasoned traveler in me doesn\u2019t want to be that clich\u00e9 tourist pointing and snapping photos) but the truth is \u2026 I love them. A sightseeing bus tour is a great way to get a quick sense of the city, orient yourself, see the major monuments and hop out anytime to explore. Kids will enjoy the adventure of riding an open-air double decker bus, feeling the wind in their hair (don\u2019t forget to bring a sweater because it tends to get chilly if you\u2019re sitting outside), taking in the sights and sounds of the city.&nbsp;There are two companies, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/things-to-do\/hop-on-hop-off-bus-tour-by-bus-turistic.a167019.activity-details?srp=true&amp;location=Barcelona+%2C+Spain&amp;categories=Hop-on+Hop-off?mcicid=page.Inspire.Gnomads.julia-dimon.5-memorable-things-to-do-in-barcelona-with-kids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barcelona Bus Tur\u00edstic<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/things-to-do\/barcelona-city-tour-hop-on-hop-off-bus-pass.a167139.activity-details?srp=true&amp;location=Barcelona+%2C+Spain&amp;categories=Hop-on+Hop-off?mcicid=page.Inspire.Gnomads.julia-dimon.5-memorable-things-to-do-in-barcelona-with-kids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barcelona City Tour<\/a> that offer similar routes and pricing for their sightseeing tours. Some of the tour highlights included the Gothic Quarter, the seafront, Agbar Tower, the Sagrada Familia, Pla\u00e7a Catalunya and Las Ramblas. Children under 3 are free, but keep in mind that there are no seat belts so it\u2019s important to be extra vigilant and hold on tight.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Park Ciutadella<\/strong><\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21459 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkCiutadella.jpg\" alt=\"Park Ciutadella park kids\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkCiutadella.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkCiutadella-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkCiutadella-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkCiutadella-400x250.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<p>Steps away from the Arc de Triomf and the Zoo, you\u2019ll find <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcelona.de\/en\/barcelona-parc-ciutadella.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Park Ciutadella.<\/a> The Central Park of Barcelona, it\u2019s largest and oldest green space in the heart of the city, dating al the way back to the late 1800s. Here kids can&nbsp;run around the manicured grounds, feed ducks in the lake, rent rowboats and watch wild green parrots called Monk Parakeets fly from palm trees. The big draw is the ornate and impressive Cascada&nbsp;waterfall and fountain, created between 1875 and 1881 by Josep Fontser\u00e8 with the help of a young Gaud\u00ed. Kids will love to chase after and pop the ginormous bubbles made by local street performers directly in front of the fountain. There are also several fantastic playgrounds for younger children, including the <em>Ludoteca<\/em>, an interactive outdoor playspace for families with children ages 0-5. Open daily throughout the year, <em>Ludoteca<\/em> also has free environmentally themed workshops for kids. My kiddos loved the outdoor play space. I loved the fact that it was completely enclosed (so they can\u2019t escape) and that I could meet local Spanish mamas for a parental themed cultural encounter.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Barceloneta Beach<\/strong><\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21455 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/babyonBarcelonabeachsm-e1513368800316.jpg\" alt=\"toddler walking towards waves Barcelona beach\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/babyonBarcelonabeachsm-e1513368800316.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/babyonBarcelonabeachsm-e1513368800316-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/babyonBarcelonabeachsm-e1513368800316-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/babyonBarcelonabeachsm-e1513368800316-400x250.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<p>Weather permitting, a day trip to the lively Barceloneta Beach with the kids can\u2019t be beat. The waves are gentle, the water warm, the sand is perfect for buildings castles and there are \u2018chiringuitos\u2019 (beach bars) for the parents. Be sure to pack the beach basics \u2014 towels, snacks, sunscreen, hats and bathing suits. If you forget a beach blanket, fear not. There are supermarkets nearby and sarong salesmen who patrol the beach and hawk their wares. This part of the beach seemed to draw mostly young foreign travelers in their early twenties, but in no way did we feel out of place. Some beach goers played volleyball, others tanned topless, while we jumped over waves and dug holes in the sand.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Park G\u00fcell<\/strong><\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21458 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkGuellmosaics-e1513368917905.jpg\" alt=\"mosaics of Park Guell \" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkGuellmosaics-e1513368917905.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkGuellmosaics-e1513368917905-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkGuellmosaics-e1513368917905-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ParkGuellmosaics-e1513368917905-400x250.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<p>Young kids will love the multicolored mosaic lizard water fountain, the Hansel-and-Gretel fairy tale gatehouses, the imaginary forest of 88 stone columns (perfect for running around and screaming at the top of your lungs), and the sweeping views overlooking all of Barcelona. Park G\u00fcell is truly a magical spot. The park is extremely popular and access is limited to a certain number of people every half-hour, so be sure to book ahead online to reserve a time. For early risers, if you arrive before 8 a.m., you can access the park for free. This is the perfect time to capture that beautiful morning light and avoid a mob of tourists photo-bombing your shot.&nbsp;I\u2019ve always found that getting great family photos can be tricky if you DIY. Tired of awkward selfies, I hired a professional photographer from the online service <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flytographer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flytographer<\/a>, which pairs local photographers with travelers looking to capture special moments of their trip. Cathy, an Irish mom of three kids who has been living in Barcelona for the past decade, met our family and guided us through Park G\u00fcell, capturing candid shots of the kids as they explored the iconic architecture. We loved coming home with some beautiful photos to remind us of our time in Barcelona.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>HELPFUL TIPS FOR IF YOU GO TO BARCELONA WITH KIDS:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Get Lounge Access:<\/strong> Getting to Barcelona from our hometown of Denver required a 7-hour stop in JFK. Some would say that killing 7 hours in an airport with two tired toddlers in an exercise in insanity. One thing that made the process better was getting access to the business lounge. I\u2019m a member of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prioritypass.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Priority Pass<\/a>, which allows access to over 1,000 airport lounges worldwide regardless of the airline you fly. Guests under 3 are free, so the kiddos and I were able to recharge and refuel (aka eat a ton of chocolate chip cookies) before our international flight. If you\u2019ve got a long layover and tend to travel frequently, the Priority Pass is a great value (membership plans start as low as $99 a year) and brought our family a much needed dose of luxury to our normally painful layover experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay Connected:<\/strong> To avoid roaming charges and dead zones without service, I decided to rent my own Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot from <a href=\"http:\/\/mobilewifi.telecomsquare.us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Telecom Square<\/a>. A girlfriend recommended it to me as an alternative to unlimited data plans and foreign SIM cards. This tiny device helped me stay constantly connected to the internet, so I could always check my email, update my social media, use my maps to navigate the city and stay in touch with people at home \u2013 all on the go. With plans starting at a flat rate of $6.99 a day, it\u2019s a no brainer, especially when traveling to more remote areas and even on cruise ships (since internet can be so pricey at sea).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Travel Light:<\/strong> Don\u2019t schlep a bunch of baby gear with you \u2026 just rent it at your location. In an effort to travel lighter, I rented a double stroller, toys and a crib from<a href=\"http:\/\/www.backpackbaby.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Backpack Baby<\/a>. This Spain-based company delivers highchairs, cribs, pack-n-plays and more to your hotel or vacation rental. An English-speaking member of their team comes to set up and pick the gear up again after your stay. Such a convenience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay Safe:<\/strong> When it came to taking taxis around Barcelona, I brought a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mifold.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mifold Grab-and-Go booster seat<\/a>, a super light-weight foldable booster that\u2019s small enough to fit in your purse. When walking around, we quickly learned that the traffic signs in Barcelona mean business. A flashing green man or hint of yellow was NOT the time to attempt to cross the street. The traffic lights change quickly, the cars waiting at the stop lights are unforgiving so it&#8217;s best to wait for the next light instead of taking your life in your hands. Don\u2019t count on pedestrians having the right of way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s a city known for it\u2019s bizarre Gaudi architecture, winding medieval streets, epic Gothic churches, wild topless beaches and decadent serrano ham.
