Attended 9th Annual All Kids Fair at Hilton Long Island @ Huntington today for the first time…read more One day event 10-4:30 pm. Advanced and on site ticket same price. $5 per person. Kids 2 and under free. We Got there 1:30 pm. - multiple spots for face painting by different vendors. Most are free it one charged $15 but did a good job. You get what you pay for. - Feed the butterflies- Walk through a tent. Given a spongy stick soaked with sugar water so butterflies will land on it. $4 per person all ages. -one small bouncy house on one side of hotel. A large one at other end of hotel. - Free classes throughout the day. For more popular one you have to stand on line before it starts. See my photo for class schedule - petting zoo includes roosters and bunnies and goats. $1 half cup for goat feeding. Goats were so full that they ignored the food! Later found out you can pull out hay from the hanging net to feed them to save money. - Touch a snake/ lizard/ bunny..... - photobooth - free balloon artist -Food vendors : chicken fingers (3 pieces $5), muffin $2 , wrap $7 , burger and fries $6, shaved ice $3-6, food truck selling funnel cake $8 and fried Oreo etc. - Free popcorn and cotton candy but ran out in the afternoon - advertised as over 80 vendors Pro: -Location is easy to find. Big sign at entrance lawn saying All Kids Fair - Free interesting classes offered whole day throughout including magic show and princess party. - great balloon artists. Detailed doggy with eye stickers and draw on mouth with a red bow. - Free pitchers of ice water with plastic cups in Grand Ballroom - lots of giveaways and free activities. Just long lines sometimes especially bouncy house and face painting Con: -we had to circle around the front parking lot for a few minutes before finding parking. Back lot maybe better - confusing layout and not clearly explained when entered. Event has one smaller room to the left when entered ( one small bouncy house, one person facepajnting, feed the butterfly and a few vendors). Room was small and with ppl standing on line for face painting and bouncy house. There's really little wiggle room, especially with stroller. Ppl coming in and getting out via a bottleneck area. Petting zoo was at the back of the hotel. Third part is at the bigger 'Grand ballroom' which houses a bigger bouncy house, food vendors, more facepajnting, pat a snake And at least 25 more vendors. -Classes were arranged in smaller conference rooms. We attended princess party and the room was definitely overcrowded. Ppl with stroller parked right in front of us and blocked my 3 years old view. She refused to move saying there was no other space. - Princess party was poorly organized despite energetic Moana and Rapunzel. They often looked at each other and think what's next. Dance party music was played directly from a staff iPhone. Not even a Bluetooth speaker. Music was hardly heard. The session was 45 min originally but we left in 20 min. - walkway was full of ppl sitting on floor resting and snacking - tried the chicken fingers 3 pieces for $5. It was little cold and dry. Conclusion: kids had fun despite lines. Wish we had gone little earlier to enjoy more classes. Venue is nice and modern despite confusing layout of the event. Good value for $5 per person. Will definitely attend again next year.

Great establishment for younger kids. Very entertaining for a 3 year old. I think kids from 2-5…read morewould have a really great time. My 8 year old had a good time too but when I came alone with my 3 year old, we had the best time. There's a lot to do and they even provide free coins for the little arcade games (also suitable for small children). I'm really happy this business opened up near us, great job. It was clean and their play supermarket was the most stocked I've ever seen, my toddler absolutely adored the play supermarket. There were carts, 20 different types of fruits and veggies, check out line and kitchen. They also had a really cute little area for kids to dress up in a princess outfit and pretend play hair stylist with doll heads. My toddler and I spent 40 mins just on these two activities, which made me happy bc I didn't have to run around.

It's a lot…read morebigger than it looks from the outside, and has so many things for the littles from a mini carousel, a mini engineers play space, a huge jungle gym area that was very approachable for my 2.5 year old, token games, and a toy kitchen and supermarket. Not sure if the food is standard or not but we also ate Pizza Hut and McDonald's food. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They came by a lot to offer food and drinks and to clean which was really helpful with young kids! They also offer open play which we will definitely check out! The hours are also very flexible, being open until 8pm or so every night.

This is a cool place for kids and adults if you're a dino lover. They have interactive learning…read morespots, some animals to admire (we got to pet a rabbit), and animatronic dinosaurs (not the same as Dinosaurs Alive from the 90s, iykyk). Parking is very small, but not that many people come and go when I go. Admission is $15. Why the low rating you ask? When I did this a year ago, they had you wait in the lobby and gave you a guided tour and explained things, made you hold a snake, and gave you items to hold and touch that aren't part of the free for all it is now. I asked if they can do the guided tour, and we were told they have staff along the way to answer questions...not one human in site! So unfortunate, you guys really need that element back! By the way, I kind of feel bad for the goat that has his pen right next to the trex as big as a house...I've seen Jurassic Park, they are not besties. I'm sure that goat staring him down all day is scared for his life. :(

The bowling alley is located near a LIRR stop which is a few blocks away, but even then, parking in…read morethis area is not hard to find. I have come here twice so far. My kids love it and they have a good selection of lighter balls for those that can't handle heavy balls. The kids bowled with 6lb balls while my wife bowled with 8lb balls. I have come here on a weekday and a Saturday, both times the bowling alley was rather empty which was nice. They have ceiling fans running and ac so it doesn't get too hot. The bowling alley isn't fancy. It's your standard bowling alley, but is a bit dated. However, it does serve its purpose and has 16 lanes. My kids typically bowl 2 games each and that seems to be enough for them. I would recommend this location if you want to avoid crowded bowling alleys.

There was plenty of seating space for each lane. The only issue was that their operation hours change from day to day, make sure you check their schedule before heading there.

This is a tough one mainly because of safety concerns I had. Firstly you have to park very far away…read moredue to construction happening. It sucks but I get it. Here's what went well: I enjoyed the actual zip-lining and my baby cousins enjoyed it to a certain extent. Here's what I didn't like: Workers. Where? For a Saturday there were only a handful of people and there were only a few workers at each platform. Coincidentally not the ones we were at. My boyfriend and his mother were both given the wrong harness size which led to a very uncomfortable experience for them. Mainly my issues with this place is no one was there. At times we were screaming asking for help for the people in front and behind us. It's really scary how deserted it felt. Other major issue, gloves were not required? What? I used to work at a zip line place and much of what I saw upset me. I would look elsewhere when considering trying something like this.

I did the classic ropes course today and it took me just under 2 hours. Overall, I think it's worth…read morethe money. The staff is really friendly and helpful, and the course is actually a lot more challenging than I expected. I have a couple of recommendations for anyone planning to go: I did not do the zip line as an add on, and I really don't think it's necessary; the classic course has six or seven zip lines, and they are all higher than the big one. I wished I had my old weight lifting gym gloves. You're holding on to things for dear life pretty much the whole time, and gym gloves would have counteracted the stress sweat on my palms, and also prevented the callouses I developed. Leave as much as you can in your car, as lockers are $5. I threw my backpack behind one of the container closets where you gear up and it was fine, but it would have been less stressful to have left it in my car. I think this is worth trying if you're not afraid of heights and looking for an unusual workout and adrenaline rush.

The staff was incredibly friendly, too! ¡Esto fue genial después de visitar el museo de bomberos! ¡Los niños estaban súper emocionados por subirse al carrusel y les encantó muchísimo!

Nunley's Carousel is located between the Long Island Children's Museum and the Nassau County Fire…read moreFighters Museum. Google maps took me to the back of the carousel but there was no entrance. Luckily there is a small street to the right and we were able to get to the parking lot and go to the entrance. The carousel is house in a small building where it is protected from the elements. Tickets cost $4 for a single ride for the general public and $3 for members of the Long Island Children's Museum. You can also purchase a 10 pack of tickets at a price of $35 for the general public and $25 for members of the Long Island Children's Museum. The carousel has been restored to its former glory. It is a beautiful sight to see. Some of carousel horses go up and down others are stationary. There are also 2 chariots and even a lion (stationary). The music is classic carousel tunes. The hub in the middle is painted with murals of an older time as is the top of the carousel. The rife lasts almost 4 minutes. A very nice experience.

The prices are reasonable for such a run-down place. Everything is ancient and needs at least some touch-up, but for the price they charge, it is all right. The rentals are ok; some days, you get better equipment if you are lucky. The locks for your personal belongings need quarters; some eat your money and won't work. The ring itself gets overcrowded very fast, and one of the annoying things is some trainers get very aggravated if you ski too close to their trainee while knowing it is public hours. The ice gets pretty bit up very fast!
