Warmest welcome in Scotland, rain or shine

Glasgow is a city that runs on friendliness, and that applies double when you've got kids. Strangers will hold doors, help with buggies on buses, and strike up conversations in soft play. The West End and Southside have the densest concentration of family stuff, but there are decent parks and groups right across the city. Kelvingrove, Pollok Country Park, and the Botanic Gardens give you proper green space without driving anywhere.

The Riverside Museum is the go-to rainy day option. Free, pushchair-friendly, and toddlers love the old vehicles. Kelvingrove Museum is similar and has a good cafe. Queen's Park on the Southside and Kelvingrove Park in the West End are the social hubs for parents on decent days. Glasgow's library service runs loads of free sessions. Bookbug is the big one, and it's in almost every library. There are baby groups everywhere, from church halls to community centres, and you can fill every morning of the week if you want to.

Places Families Go in Glasgow

Riverside Museum

Free transport museum on the Clyde with a recreated old Glasgow street. Toddlers like climbing on things and there's loads to touch.

Pollok Country Park

Huge park with highland cows, woodland trails, and the Burrell Collection. Easy to spend a whole morning here.

Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum

Free, central, and the hanging Spitfire alone keeps kids staring upwards for five minutes. The mini museum area is designed for small hands.

Glasgow Botanic Gardens

The Kibble Palace glasshouse is warm and green year-round. Good for a walk when it's too wet for the park.

Areas We'll Cover in Glasgow

The parent community is massive and incredibly welcoming. Glasgow parents don't do cliquey. You'll get invited for coffee after your first baby group. The city also has strong Gaelic-medium provision if that's of interest.
