    There’s a chill in the air and it’s the best time to take a stroll in the park and enjoy the greenery and fresh air.

    Jumeirah Beach Park
    Jumeirah Beach Park: A perfect spot for your next grilling station is on Jumeirah Beach Road, near the Dubai Ladies Club. Jumeirah Beach Park is a popular place because it’s so family and community friendly. However, the rules must be followed. Setting up the BBQ on the sand is not allowed and proper, designated spots must be used. Image Credit: Shutterstock

    Sustainable City farm
    Sustainable City farm: At yet another park/farm that makes you forget that you’re in a desert, enjoy a fun-filled day with educational and exciting animal interactions. You, and your children, can feed the ducks, while acquainting yourself with the other non-human residents of the park, including donkeys say hello to the donkeys, goats and even peacocks. This place can be perfect if you need to get that winter-break energy used up with the mini-maze and upcycled tyre swings. Image Credit: Sustainable City
