The interactive education and entertainment center is a scaled-down town that enables children to experience how adults view and participate in the world. KidZania’s paved streets are lined with shops, offices, restaurants, factories, a bank, a hospital and fire station. Inside more than 60 workplace settings children between the ages of 4 and 16 can live out their dream job fantasies with 80 role-playing activities to choose from. At the start of the visit, children are given a map and are free to walk around the city and work at any of the available jobs.
During their job shifts they wear uniforms and when they’ve finished are paid in KidZania’s own currency.
