Kids love to play, explore, and learn new things. Exposing young minds to the bigger world (the world outside their school and home) is one of the best things that can be done to encourage their inquisitiveness. So, where can you plan a quick holiday from Delhi with the kids? Thankfully, there are plenty of kid-friendly places in and around the city; ideal for a day trip or weekend getaway. Listed below are some of the best weekend getaways from Delhi, which include amusement parks, wildlife sanctuaries, farms, resorts, and other fun places.  

Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary

Plan a day trip to Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary and take your kids away from the buzz of the bustling city; closer to the soulful chirping of birds and other calming sounds of nature at Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary. About 360 bird species and 380 floral species call this park (renamed Keoladeo Ghana National Park) their home. One can spot birds such as herons, pelicans, eagles, cormorants, cranes, storks, bulbuls, babblers, hornbills, geese, ducks, shovellers, etc. in the woods and wetlands here. Do carry binoculars and help your kids identify different species of birds. Winter is the best time to visit Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary, as you will get to spot those migratory birds that flock here in huge numbers in winter. So, if you are flying to Delhi with kids from Nov to Feb, do visit this bird sanctuary.
