The Uni Zoology Museum and Natural History Centre is a great place for kids. Also the Cruickshank Botanic Gardens is one of the City's Hidden Gems:

If you are heading to Kintore, the Tyrebagger Sculpture trail is just off the main road:

Again, a few minutes from Kintore is Kemnay - With Fetternear Estate, which is worth a stroll round:

Yes, that is correct. I did a photography course and this was one of the locations I visited. It is like a time capsule in the centre of Aberdeen and I met a few locals who had some very interesting tales. I have not seen those old funfair amusements for many years. :rotfl::rotfl:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lfIgu23kms
Cadona's Amusement Park is a bit more high tech (and expensive!) these days.
