The Rainbow Nation is home to 42 public and private game reserves, including Africa's largest, Kruger National Park. There are three options in particular which are particularly kid-friendly:

Pilanesberg National Park - arguably the safest safari option out there. it's also very affordable. The accommodation is fenced-in, and there are many amenities for children since most visitors are families with kids. There’s no sense of wilderness as in more common safari locations, but families can still easily spot the "Big Five."

Shamwari Game Reserve - If you're willing to pay a bit more, apart from guaranteed "Big Five" sightings, there's a special “kids on safari” program, parents may also take advantage of a babysitting service should they decide to have some alone time.
 
Madikwe Game Reserve - In this private game reserve specially adapted for kids, children under four can go on a unique “jungle drive,” whereas a bit older kids can engage in “children’s safari” which in addition to wildlife spotting including teaching survival techniques and bush medicine.

Then of course South Africa is also home to several vibrant cities with a lot to offer families, including Durban, Johannesburg, Pretoria/Tswane, and especially colorful Cape Town (and at this last, don't miss a day trip to its nearby beaches and the colonies of adorable penguins at the Cape of Good Hope!).
