Yes, kids love glass — especially when color and fire are involved. Keep routes short and curiosity high.

60‑minute family loop

  • Millefiori, filigrana, and one chandelier room → quick demo → gelato.
  • Build a scavenger list: a fish, a flower, a spiral cane, a tiny bubble trapped in a diamond.

Demo etiquette for families

  • Stand back from the bench line; listen to safety notes.
  • If little ones get nervous near heat, watch from the side or ask for a cooler vantage point.

Breaks and snacks

  • Murano’s canals have benches and shade; cafes on Fondamenta dei Vetrai are reliable for quick bites.
