KidZania Kuwait
The exciting kid-sized metropolis in Kuwait, kicks off its much-awaited KidZania Games Program in partnership with Kinder Chocolate and Kinder Joy. Children can now engage in a series of fun and challenging sports activities designed to encourage participation in indoor sports and various sporting disciplines.
The five-week program that runs until 26 October 2019, will feature a combination of innovative sports activities including torch relay, foam archery, foam weightlifting, rhythmic gymnastics for girls, basketball and football fields that are filled with fun and are extremely engaging and super exciting. The interactive setting will test the participants coordination and team-work skills, as well as their ability to remain patient while completing the task in each activity.
All enterants get a Points Card along with the Games Pass. For every activity they complete, they will receive a KZ stamp on their card which they will need to carry along at every visit. Winners will be chosen based on the card having the maximum number of visits and points. The visitor with maximum visits and points will be awarded KZ Games All Star 2019 (GOLD MEDAL). Consequitive winners will be awarded the KZ Games Silver Star 1st Runner Up Player ( SILVER MEDAL) and KZ Games Shining Star 2nd Runner Up Player (BRONZE MEDAL) based on number of visits and points collected. Pass holders who successfully complete six games and collect stamps for each of them win a certificate of participation as well as a gift from Kinder Chocolate.
Commenting on the program, Fernando Medroa, Vice President of Leisure and Entertainment at Alshaya Group said: “We host the KidZania Games Program annually as we aim to reinforce the importance of sports in a child’s holistic development. Children today are faced with numerous barriers that hinder them from engaging in sports such as digital distractions, lack of safe play places, and fear of trying. We not only address these challenges by highlighting sports as a means to get kids active but also to teach significant life lessons that help them develop character-forming values.”
At the end of the program, KidZania will host a medal distribution ceremony that will be attended by dignitaries from Kinder, KidZania Management, VIPs and PaZZport holders.
KidZania Games provides an ideal mix of learning, entertainment, fun, and physical activity in an interactive environment. The program is combined with learning in a way that aids kids mental, physical and social skills.
About KidZania:
Much more than a children’s museum or family entertainment center, KidZania takes interactive entertainment and learning to an entirely new level by combining role-playing with real life. KidZania creates a children-centric city experience designed to educate and inspire 4 to 14-year olds – from arriving at the airport, to visiting a city center to exploring the city streets. We replicate the real world in a safe and self-contained over 7,000 square meter children-sized city. As in the real world, children choose activities – such as being a police officer, doctor, journalist or a shopkeeper – and earn money which they can then spend or save. KidZania operates just like a real city complete with buildings, paved streets, vehicles, a functioning economy and recognizable destinations in the form of “establishments” sponsored and branded by leading multi-national and local brands. The facilities are designed to educate through experience, fostering the development of life skills, but from a children perspective – it’s all about fun.
KidZania, Inc., headquartered in Mexico, is privately held. This award-winning concept is recognized globally for its unique blend of entertainment and education for children. The first KidZania opened in Mexico City in 1999. There are currently 27 KidZania attractions in total including Monterrey, Mexico; Tokyo, Japan; Jakarta, Indonesia; Koshien, Japan; Lisbon, Portugal; Dubai, UAE; Seoul, South Korea; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Cuicuilco, Mexico; Santiago, Chile; Bangkok, Thailand; Mumbai, India; Cairo, Egypt and Istanbul, Turkey. To date, more than 20 million kids and parents have visited the facilities globally. The trajectory continues with more facilities in development, including locations in Singapore, Russia and the United States.
KidZania Kuwait is a (7,000 square meter) facility, located in The Mall – The Avenues and is operated by Alshaya.
