While the cousins were visiting from Canada we went to a place called Kidzania. Mashallah it was a really neat place and the kids really enjoyed themselves. Its basically a mini kid sized city where the kids get jobs, make money and spend money. There are many different types of stores or community places such as hospitals, gas stations etc. liked how each station had staff working there and would walk the kids through everything. Adults were actually not allowed to go inside the stations (but could still fully see everything). I think its really good for kids, especially when homeschooled, to get the opportunity to learn with other adults. Inshallah we'll go back one day, the boys really enjoyed it, and so did I. = )

Asalamualaikym this seems like a brilliant place for kids to learn and experience 'real life'. Wish we had the same here.
