🧸 Kids

At the tail end of the 2026 Chuseok holiday we took the kids to the Iksan Jewelry Museum and the Dinosaur Theme Park (Dino Kids World) right next door: traditional folk games, an invited exhibition of jewelry shaped like Hangeul letters, and an outdoor playground with a giant slide, a life-size Brachiosaurus, buried fossils, rope webs and zip lines. Hours and closing days from Iksan City's official pages.

Our Chuseok-holiday visit to Jeonju Dreamland, the small amusement park inside Jeonju Zoo: smaller, less scary rides that lower-elementary kids loved, no separate admission and no day pass — just cheap ride bundles — ticket prices, opening hours that end before the zoo's, and a heads-up for thrill seekers.

Our family's Chuseok holiday visit to Jeonju Zoo with the kids: enclosures packed with animals, a full loop past elephants, snakes, bears, birds and monkeys, park-like paths with restrooms everywhere, meerkat and parrot GIFs, admission (adults 3,000 won) and hours from Jeonju City's official guide, and Dreamland inside the zoo for using up the kids' last bit of energy.

Our family visits to the Starlight Festival (별빛축제) at Seoul Science Center in Nowon on November 29–30, 2025: telescope sessions, constellation talks, hands-on programs for kids, smooth operations, and night-sky viewing at the mercy of the weather. With hours, parking fees and directions.

Our visit to Noljasup, a forest-themed adventure park in Dongducheon, northern Gyeonggi-do: a climbing area where staff help even a first grader and a kindergartner, a trampoline-like net zone and a sunny outdoor air bounce. Weekend lines, plus hours, prices, height rules and parking from the official site.

Both our kids caught the flu in the same week, so we took them to Magok Tuntun Pediatrics in Magok, Seoul: a children's clinic with an inpatient ward, weekday hours until 23:00, weekend and holiday hours, and a whole floor of space. Opening hours, parking and how to get there.
