Sauriermuseum ,Aathal / Dinosaur museum



  • Sauriermuseum
  • Aathal, 8607,Switzerland


  • My son loves everything about dinosaurs and his mom (me) as a big fan of "the land before time" movie,i'm always fascinated about dinosaurs.I remember watching little foot during my primary school years in my grandparents house (at that time it was just betamax available).

    This place is perfect for kids or even adults who are interested and crazy about dinos.



    They have dinosaur skeletons and fossils with all the trivia that you need to know,very interesting and informative.


    They have a small playground at the back of the museum and a big moving dino which is a good entertainment for small kids like my daughter on the picture above.




    During summer you can make barbecue bratwurst and picnic on their playground.

    For all the info. pls. Check their websiet.

  • Basler Kinderfasnacht 2014 / Basel kids carnival


    Basel Fasnacht is the most popular carnival celebration in switzerland every march.
    It's a 3-day non-stop party in the whole city and every tuesday afternoon on the second day of fasnacht week is the one for kids.(Kinderfasnacht)





    Everyone are dress up with different kinds of costumes but the popular one is "Waggis Larve" a traditional basel mask ,It's somehow scary like the one on the picture below but that's one of the reason why Basel Carnival is so popular.




    At first i wanted to bring my kids on the first day but my husband said it's better on the second day since it's for kids so no wild teenagers around and drunk adults lol



    There are floats going around the city and giving small treats for all like sweets,small toys,stuffed toy etc.

    My kids got 2kg. of candies and some other stuff.



    I thought my Kids will get bored easily but no they had sooo much fun getting the candies eventhough we have a lot of sweets at home,i let them experience the joy of collecting candies from the Waggis and at the end they're so proud of what they got.

    Swiss vapeur park,Le Bouveret





    Swiss vapeur parc,Le bouveret

    Route de la Plage, 1897 Le Bouveret



    Swiss vapeur park is an amusement park located at Le Bouveret on the other end side of geneva lake in Canton Vaud near montreux.


    It's a miniature wonderland for kids with different kinds of mini version of swiss trains like those Sbb trains all over switzerland and swiss steam trains.







    We had a weekend trip to Le bouveret to visit swiss vapeur park and swiss aquaparc.It's perfect for a family like us because they're just on the same location.







    It's not just for kids but for the whole family.You pay for a day entrance and you can ride all the trains as much as you want,aside from mini trains they also have mini replicas like castles and  popular churches in CH.


    They have kiosks and souvenir shops inside the park and if you want to bring your own food they have picnic are on some parts of the park.





    I subscribe my son to Sbb magic ticket for kids and as a member we got a discount for an entry ticket in Vapeur park and to other amusement parks. (Magicticket.ch for all the infos.)

    For all the infos pls. Check the link above.






    The good thing is ,it's just across the street from Le bouveret train station for those who don't have cars or for those who want to travel by train.

    And near Le Bouveret Bahnhof (station) there is a BnB La Berg du Lac-Valentin,we paid 100fr. for a night for a quadruple room with breakfast and the owner is very nice but she just speaks in french or maybe a bit english,my husband is speaking french so we didn't have problems at all.


    We love Swiss vapeur parc and Le Bouveret,such a lovely place! We will def. go back again ;)

    And a lot more!




    My son is crazy about cars and this car track which they called Formula VD (Vaud the name of the canton or state) is perfect for kids like him.We never experienced long qeues there  i don't know if it was low season at that time but no long waiting at all.
