The range of activities in Phuket for children continues to grow. Any time of year, rain or shine, you will find adventure activities, playgrounds and action tours to suit any age of youngster.

Here are a few suggestions split by age categories so you can find something to suit you and your clan, and maybe even find some time to enjoy yourself too.
