You will not stay alone. The Gran Canaria Families with Kids (6-12) community is already waiting.

Parents of primary-age kids in Gran Canaria compare notes on the international schools, trade after-school activity groups for surf, judo, and art, and share where to take kids on the rainy afternoons that Las Canteras Club and a beach club in Maspalomas solve nicely. Birthday-party venues get passed around before anyone has to ask twice.

Organized, resourceful, shares a useful link before you finish typing the question.
