Kids Kingdom

  

Where Young Hearts Reign
     
 

It had been a long voyage filled with great adventure and now it was time to return home. Captain McMeeny's thoughts turned to the streets of Bristol and all the good times she had there in the past, and all the fun she would have upon arrival. She paced her cabin anxiously, trying to contain her excitement.

 

From upon the deck came a loud cry, "Land..."

The ship heaved violently and a thunderous crash filled the air. "...ho..."

 

Rushing up onto the deck, Captain McMeeny found that she was certainly at home in Bristol, but her ship was a little further inland than she would've chosen. With a sigh, the captain began to calculate how long the ship would take to repair.

 

Now, after crashing their ship, The Broken Oar, into the middle of Bristol, a swarm of hapless pirates have taken over the enclosed play area known as Kids Kingdom. Leaving no time for delay, Captain McMeeny, with the help of the brave lads and lasses of the Kingdom, will need to scurry to straighten up before the Queen's visit.


Time slips away when you step into the magical realm of Kids Kingdom. See eye-to-eye and play with childish abandon alongside younger visitors to the Faire shire of Bristol. Learn to dress and speak like a pirate with the crew of the Broken Oar, enjoy the comedy of the Cutlass Cooking Pantry Parley show, relax with enchanting music, explore creativity with children's crafts, or be knighted by the Queen!

 
     
   
     
 

Knighting Ceremony
In Kid's Kingdom children reign supreme. But when the Queen herself comes to visit, that is truly a special moment. The foundation for the Knighting Ceremony starts at 4:30, before the Queen's arrival, as the children are prepared to meet the most noble personage in all of England. Then, beginning at 5:00, an actual audience with Her Majesty where the Queen takes time to interact and speak to each child before making them a Lord or Lady of the court of Queen Elizabeth.
