The first weekend of 2014 arrives and this year the coincidence has wanted it to be also one of the most magical for children. The children have waited twelve months to see the Magi again and as they have been good they will surely be surprised when they wake up on January 6.
Many are nervous thinking about the arrival of Melchor, Gaspar and Baltasar so to channel that energy until the arrival of His Majesties of the East we are going to propose a few plans and getaways to make the weekend of Reyes with children.
Museum of Miniatures of Besalú (Girona)
In this peculiar exhibition hall you can see the smallest Magi in the world, although you will have to equip the children with a magnifying glass as if they were apprentices of Sherlock Holmes. The Museum of Miniatures of Besalú leaves no one indifferent, it is a real hidden gem in a beautiful town.
Buildings built with LEGO in Madrid
Tomorrow Saturday is the last day of an exhibition in which you can see some of the most emblematic buildings in the world built with LEGO pieces. In the headquarters of the College of Architects of Madrid you can see the Big Ben in London, the Empire State Building in New York, the Sydney Opera House or the Puerta de Alcalá from 12:00 to 20:00 hours.
Santa Catalina lighthouse in Lekeitio (Bizkaia)
If you are in Euskadi, a great family plan can be to visit the Santa Catalina Lighthouse in Lekeitio. You can spend a few hours enjoying beautiful sea views and then make the children feel true sailors in the navigation simulator in the old house of the lighthouse keeper. Nature, good views and fun are guaranteed.
Sierra Nevada (Granada)
If there is a desire for mountain and snow, one of the best destinations in Spain is Sierra Nevada. In addition to enjoying one of the most complete ski resorts on the peninsula, a few kilometers away you can visit the picturesque coastline of Granada with great beaches and coves such as Motril, Almuñecar or La Herradura.
Jurassic Museum of Asturias
A perfect place to combine the didactic and playful facets. The building seen from the air has an appearance of dinosaur tridactyl footprint. The models, information panels and exhibitions are of the highest level. The most interesting thing for children is paleontology workshops in which they are allowed to feel like real explorers.
Three Kings Cavalcade in Alcoy (Alicante)
And I couldn't close this recommendation from plans and getaways to make the weekend of Reyes with children Without a ride. In all the cities of Spain they are special, but in this city of Alicante it is more. The Three Kings Cavalcade of Alcoy, considered the oldest in the world, is perfect to enjoy as a family. The children will be enthralled watching the royal pages perching on the windows and balconies of the houses with long wooden stairs to distribute toys and gifts.
