The UN Visitor Centre invites all UN Staff and Delegates to bring children aged 5 to 10 to participate in the 2026 UN Kids Day on Friday, 20 February.

Take a Children’s Tour in the UN Kids Corridor, an interactive space where children can learn about the UN’s work through games, quizzes, and role-playing. Children’s tours will be offered throughout the day (9:45 am to 4:00 pm). 

Before or after the tour, children of all ages can participate in many fun and educational activities in the Visitor Centre, on the lower level of the General Assembly Building, including meeting a UN Security Officer, listening to story time at the UN Bookshop, and experiencing virtual reality, among others.

All Visitor Centre activities are free and available all day from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. 

Please note that children must always be accompanied by an adult, including on tour.  For security reasons, children under 5 years of age are not allowed on tour but can participate in the fun activities in the Visitor Centre.
