Kids' Berlin
Attitudes to young children in Berlin can strike outsiders as oddly
ambivalent. While the city has a large number of single-parent families and
excellent social services provisions, Berliners aren't too tolerant of kids in
“adult” places, such as restaurants or bars, and though the city boasts a
higher proportion of lakes, parks and woodland than any other European
capital, there are few o
cial attractions in those places directly geared
towards entertaining children. If you're bringing kids, be prepared to do
Berlin versions of the obvious things - zoos, museums, shops - rather than
anything unique to the city. In addition to browsing the selections that we
have covered here, you should also check the “Kinder” sections of listings
