What interactive museums or educational attractions for kids can families visit on the island?

If you’re travelling with children and looking to mix learning with fun, the Science and Technology Museum in Palma is a brilliant place to start. Its hands-on exhibits invite kids to explore everything from physics to biology through playful experiments and interactive displays. Younger visitors are often drawn in by the engaging workshops designed to make science accessible and captivating.

Beyond Palma, the Museu de la Mar in Port d'Alcudia offers an educational dive into the island’s maritime history, with interactive exhibits that help kids understand traditional fishing and seafaring life. For a change of pace, the Ferrocarril de Sóller railway is a delightful blend of adventure and history – riding the vintage wooden train through the Tramuntana mountains becomes a learning experience about early 20th-century transport. Throughout the year, many towns host family-friendly events, like crafting workshops or nature walks, which encourage children to engage with local culture and environment hands-on, so keep an eye on local listings when planning your trip.
