Post subject: Five days in Shanghai with 4 year old.

I'll be in Shanghai (currently living in Suzhou) for the first time from Monday to Friday.

Does anybody have advice for child friendly activities (our daughter is 4)?

We plan on going to the Aquarium, but don't have any other major plans.

Thanks.

Science and Technology Museum
Century Park ( driving boat or riding bicycle inside the park, games park (for kids) - kids likes riding the boat so much - just to and back will take almost 1 hour!)
Chang Feng Park (water park with seal show etc. & also the museum for fresh water fishes)
Night walk along the bund (personally I prefer the side in Pudong outside Zheng Da/Superbrand mall), less crowded and with places to eat/sit, good view of the bund on the other side, Yet I don't quite understand but my kid likes at the Tower so much! Also heard that the meseum at the base of the tower is good (no must to go up the tower))
JingJiang amusement park (kids likes the feris wheel and merry-go-round)
Take No. 911 bus on Wai Hai Lu - my kid like the double-deck bus so much and found it very interesting. For me who took double bus a lot in HK I don't think too special about it - may be it is so rare here...
Eat good and many types of food (lunch/dinner) - e.g. my kid likes Japanese tappanyaki so much - probably the way it is cooked in front of the customer which makes them feel so fasinating about this. Many choices of restaurants in Shanghai.

My kid is almost 4 - hope you find the info. useful.
