What is Westgate Kids Club?
Westgate Kids Club is the mall's own jungle-themed play arena on the first floor of Westgate Mall in Westlands, Nairobi. Kids can climb through twisting tunnels, slide into ball pits, bounce on trampolines, tackle a small climbing wall, build with LEGO and ride electronic toys. A separate enclosed section keeps toddlers away from the bigger kids.
Socks are mandatory and children under 5 must be accompanied by an adult. The venue hosts birthday parties — venue hire starts at KSh 5,000, with add-ons like clowns, face painting and puppet shows. It gets busiest on weekend afternoons, so weekday mornings are the calmest time to visit.
Westgate Kids Club sits inside Westgate Shopping Mall, which first opened in 2007 as one of Westlands' premier malls. The mall — and this play area — reopened with upgraded security after the 2013 attack, and today Kids Club is one of the most popular rainy-day options for families in Westlands.
