It really depends on exactly what your child wants to do. Does he/she only want to ride an elephant, if so I would recommend Taro, just outside Ubud or if they want to see other animals then the Safari park is a better idea. I have been to both but only ridden the elephant at Taro. I had a great time. The ride took about 40 minutes. We went out of the park, along a jungle path, past other animals and house, and then back to the park where the elephants take you into the pond and then out of it. You do feed the elephants some sugar cane, see them perform and if you want enjoy a buffet lunch. Lots of details on the Safari park in the archives. I hope this helps, Cheers, Stormy
