Switzerland | Happiness In Grief

Life in Switzerland with a toddler (and a dog)

I feel very lucky to call Switzerland home. More specifically the french speaking part of Switzerland - 'La Suisse Romande'. With amazing views of the Alps, the Jura and Lac Leman, this little part of the world is stunning and I never tire of the views. I wanted to share here some of the fun things to do in this part of the country with kids.

Swiss Life

Swiss Vapeur Park

Otherwise known as the train place in our family. This is a perfect place to with kids of any age really. My little guy enjoyed it when he was just 1 year old, but i'm looking forward to taking him back soon now he's older and can do a bit more.

Aquatis

We've been to this aquarium a few times now and it's always a hit. It's a nice surprise to have a tropical area with different types of animals including monkeys! They are always a favourite! Plenty of interesting exhibits and several interactive areas for the kiddos.

Indoor softplay

There aren't too many to choose from in the area, but our personal most visited is 'Kids Fun Park' in Etoy. It's great for ages 1+ with trampolines, plenty of ball pits and bouncy castles. Plus tonnes of things to climb up and slide down. There's a small food outlet onsite.

Signal de Bougy

Signal de Bougy is a place close to my heart. I've been going there since I was little and have made many special memories there. With a big park suitable for all ages, mini-golf, 'accrobranche', animal park and restaurant - there's fun to be had for all.
