Activities to Do with Children in Halkalı

Three stops for spending time with children in Halkalı: Çamlık Picnic Area, the early childhood program KindyROO and the Atakent Culture and Arts Centre.

Halkalı is in İstanbul’s Küçükçekmece district; a lively neighbourhood that is easy to reach by metro, metrobus, Marmaray and bus lines. In this article we have gathered three enjoyable activities you can do with children in Halkalı.

Halkalı Çamlık Picnic Area

This 26,000 square metre area in Küçükçekmece, where you can spend a lovely time as a family, offers modern playgrounds for children. You can take walks, ride bikes and be surrounded by nature. In the barbecue areas you can enjoy a pleasant day grilling with your children.

KindyROO

Located across from the Küçükçekmece Municipality building, KindyROO is an international early childhood program where children from six weeks to six years old spend time together with their parents. With its different themes, children learn while having fun; they develop hand-eye coordination in the workshop areas and socialise in the market and cafe areas. The program gives children confidence and space for free decision making.

Atakent Culture and Arts Centre

Formerly known as the Halkalı Culture Centre, this venue offers many theatre and cinema performances for adults and children alike. Through various children’s activities it contributes to socialising and the development of manual skills. By following the activities organised by Küçükçekmece Municipality, you can spend quality time with your children.

In brief

  • Halkalı, with its easy to reach location, is well suited to family activities.
  • Çamlık brings nature and play together.
  • KindyROO and Atakent stand out for early years and arts activities.
