Emirates Red Crescent and McDonald’s UAE launch Ramadan Books campaign to mark the month.

The books deliver several positive messages about the importance of kindness, friendship­s, affability and tolerance, with proceeds going to charity.

Kids Go Free on Yas Island

The summer packages give families access to more than 100 rides and attraction­s at the three theme parks on the Island. When booking a hotel stay for a night or more through yasisland.ae, each child under the age of 12 can stay and play at the Island’s theme parks for free when accompanie­d by a paying adult.

Other outdoor activities and excursions that keep families cool include the Serdal Pearl Diving Expedition; an adventure into the Arabian Gulf where visitors can live out an authentic traditiona­l Emirati pearl diving experience. Family members can also explore their more competitiv­e side and race against each other on the winding track of Yas Marina Circuit’s Yas Kart Zone, which features kids’ sessions for 5 to 7 year olds and juniors’ sessions and teen events for 8 to 12 year olds.
