Perhaps football is one of the boys' favourite sports, and they love to play soccer in their spare time. Interestingly, some become famous footballers whose appearance on the field is accompanied by an enthusiastic roar from the fans. If that's what your son's dreams look like, the best gift would be a tour of the Barcelona Football Club museum and the official Camp Nou stadium. For those indifferent to the sport, it's an opportunity to be impressed and fall in love with football.
The Museu Del Fútbol Club Barcelona is a state-of-the-art museum. So as not to have to tell visitors how Barça win, they have created a video compilation of the game's best moments. Huge interactive panels show famous goals, awards and other highlights from the club's history. Countless sporting trophies are also on display. Around the grounds are documents covering the club's more than 100-year history.
Barcelona's Football Club Museum also has an exhibition dedicated to the players' belongings. Visitors whisper the names of the players whose jerseys or boots they have seen in the museum windows in admiring whispers. And the most incredible collection in the sports museum is the work of Spanish artists, including Dali and Miró.
There comes a time when visitors move from the museum halls to the sports locker room, pass the area where the players answer questions from journalists after the game, and get into the reporters' box. From there, a magnificent panorama of Camp Nou Stadium opens up. But the most exciting moment is stepping through the tunnel into the stadium. With a capacity of almost 100,000 people, what kid wouldn't be thrilled to see himself stepping onto the field as a player? But for now, we must content ourselves with a guided tour of the stands.
If your child (or father) is a serious football fan or even a Barça fan, the Camp Nou Museum gift shop offers a T-shirt, a ball or other memorable and valuable gift. Agree that travelling to Barcelona with your child can be one of the most memorable excursions, especially if you're growing up a footballer or a real fan.
