Masjid Putra (with kids)
How Kids-Friendly is Masjid Putra?
What makes it 77% Kids-Friendly: School-age children may enjoy wearing the loaned robes, exploring the huge hall and running in Putra Square, yet parents must supervise silence inside and there is no staffed play or child toilet.
Positives:

- Free robe rental: The mosque provides robes at no charge to cover shoulders and knees before entry.
Challenges:

- Boat life jacket sizes: Check in advance that the operator has child-sized life jackets for ages 3–12.

Entry is free. Robes given free for all visitors and non-muslims. Polite and helpful. Beautiful Pink mosque. Allowed to enter in a small restricted area to see the mosque interior. We took a walk around the mosque and view was beautiful. Must visit if you are in KL or near Putrajaya.
