Free time ideas
Free time is the ideal time for children to learn and play. Young children can be introduced to music at the escoles bressol (kindergartens), spend time at family centres, or enjoy cultural activities at Barcelona’s libraries, civic centres and new media learning centres. Enjoy the resources that the city provides so that your children can make the most of their free time.

Shall we go to the park?
Barcelona’s parks and squares have more than four hundred and fifty play areas so that children can enjoy playing outdoors. Use them as places to meet, relax and have fun.
