Things to do with kids in Hamilton

Start with the age of your youngest, because that decides the night. Things to do with kids in Hamilton sort themselves out once you know who can ride what. Funvilla Ancaster runs Toddler Tuesday for ages 1 to 3 with one adult free, and Flying Squirrel on Upper James has a Kiddie Court for children 6 and under plus a sensory-friendly jump on Tuesdays.

Kids 7 and up can take a 10-minute junior kart race at Hamilton Indoor Go Karts on Cavell Avenue, with a printed lap sheet to bring home. For something cheaper, University Lanes in Dundas has a Kids Bowl Free offer and glow sessions on weekends.
