Find out about the facilities available to you and your toddlers in Spain...
Mothers
with small children will find that there are toddler groups about but these
will vary greatly depending on the region. There is unlikely to be much available
in rural areas.
In
the larger cities and towns and in the tourist areas where there are English
speakers who have relocated to Spain, it is usually possible to find groups to
join.
It is
worth asking at tourist offices and local consulates too, as these tend to
provide all sorts of information of interest to new residents.
Out and about with toddlers
Children
are rarely left at home in Spain so most places are used to catering for them
including restaurants.
Spain
has plenty of activities for those with young children. Again the range of
facilities on offer will depend on location. Most towns have parks which are
generally well maintained as well as swimming pools and other facilities.
To
find out what is available locally the tourist office or the online equivalent
for the area is a good source of information. The demand among non-Spaniards
for child friendly activities means that there are now facilities such as
soft-play areas in some towns and cities.
The
Spanish rail network RENFE allows
under four-year-olds to travel free of charge.
