    Have yourself a fun time at this park! I visited "Storybook Land" with my mother, and 5-year old nephew on a Saturday afternoon on April 26th, 2025. It cost $104.97 for three PreSeason discount tickets. We drove almost two hours from Newark to Egg Harbor Township because we heard great things about this place. It's known for having a fairytale-themed park with lots of creative statues and interactive sets that represent popular fables like "Mother Goose" and "Goldilocks and The Three Bears." The location is smaller than most parks I've been to, which is good for little kids who want to run to every ride. In a span of two hours, my family and I got on everything minus a couple attractions. There is ample parking for cars, and the entrance is bold with its large sign and white and red castle. The park played Disney music, which was soo cute! I remember hearing soundtracks from Mulan, Cinderella, and The Little Mermaid. None of the rides felt too scary for kids, even the roller coasters weren't extreme. There's also rides where kids can feel like they're driving a car, and a train that shows you the entire park. My favorite ride was "Bubbles the Coaster" and "The Rockin' Tug." The only issue with this park are the food selections. The lunch that my family had here wasn't good- at least from the cafe right next to the exit/gift shop; everything from the cheeseburger, french fries, and cookies tasted stale and more on the cold side than the hot side. I wouldn't recommend ordering food here, but everything else was great. I don't think I'll visit again only because it's so far from where I live, but this was a good one-time experience that I was able to have with my family. If you're in the area, I would encourage you to stop by and feel like you're in a magical world!

    Great rides for toddlers & children. No long lines but maybe because we went on a Wednesday. They even have water splash park. They also have a peacocks and turkeys. Staff are all accommodating and polite and the park is very clean. A Jersey kid's dream

    Finally took my kids here after being on my list to check out for awhile. The park is fairytale themed with setups depicting various nursery rhymes such as mother goose, jack and Jill etc. This a nice, smaller, amusement park with rides aimed at younger kids. There are two roller coasters but they are more kiddie like. I would compare it to Dutch Wonderland in PA. I liked that this park is more low key than the bigger amusement parks. My kids, who range from age 1-6, loved it. We spent a little over half a day here and were able to hit everything. The lines were not bad at all and we went on a weekday in the summer. I got our tickets off Groupon which was a much better deal and what made me finally pull the trigger on going. Parking is free. I was glad to see the park is very shaded because we came on a hot day. There is also a small splash pad to cool off at. We ate lunch at their cafe which was fine but on the pricier side (like in any other amusement park). I would probably opt to pack lunches if we go again which is a nice option to have. Overall, I would defintley come back. This is a sweet little amusement park and I appreciated that it was clean and not overly crowded. Perfect for the younger age group.

    Storybook Land had been on my radar for over a year, but we just didn't have time to prioritize it. Then, a friend gave us a ticket for my son's birthday gift, so we finally visited this September. The park is very clean, safe, and kid-friendly. I appreciate the greenery and it was incredible how many hanging baskets of impatients they had! It added such floral color and cheeriness to the park, but what work and expense to buy and maintain (for those unfamiliar, impatients are annuals so they need to be re-bought each year). Anyway, my mom friend and I admired and were impressed by this thoughtful detail. I was angry to be misled at the snack shop when told the fries are NOT batter dipped before paying $8 for them, only to be given BATTER DIPPED fries! They honestly deserve to lose a star for this but above mentioned flowers canceled out this perturbance. But BEWARE THEY SELL BATTER DIPPED FRIES and we had a gluten-intolerant child in our party so that's dangerous and a liability to misinform customers! The rides were all animals, cartoons, or other kinds of kid themes, bright colors, and eye-catching. The rides entertained our party of 4 kids, age 5-12, and they went on all of them as a group. Even the most intense rides (and I was a little surprised at the drop tower type ride, and the speed of the roller coaster) were fun for our younger ones, thrilling, frankly. As part of admission in the fall, we got to do a hay maze, and decorate a free pumpkin with face stickers, a nice touch. All the staff I encountered were friendly (though food service was misinformed), and the roller coaster guy let the kids ride consecutively a few rounds as long as no one new wanted to get on. Pretty sweet! All in all a great day with friends in a fun place!

    There are so many great things to say about this place. Parking is free! Admission is affordable! The park is the cleanest park you will ever go to. The landscaping makes me jealous that my yard isn't as beautiful. Food prices are a little high for what you get but still way cheaper than the other amusement parks. We also don't come for the food and there is the option to bring your own. The staff is friendly and well organized. The lines for the rides move really fast. All the rides feel safe and are also very clean. I'm beyond impressed with Storybook Land. The whole park seems to be shaded so you're not roasting in the sun. Even the bathrooms were spotless. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed it here. It's my second time here this year and our sons 5th. Season passes for us next year is a no brainer. What a pleasant day at a pleasant place surrounded by pleasant people.

    Yes. There is plenty to explore and enjoy at their age. It will be new to your little one and nostalgic to you. Our family enjoyed our time there.

    Is this place good for an 8 year old child with Autism?

    Yes I think it is -

    What is up with the music here? It reminds me of a scene from The Wire (the season where they focus…read moreon the teachers) where one of the teachers talks about turning up the heat in the classroom because it keeps the kids tired and groggy. That's honestly what I think they're doing with the music here. They're trying to sedate us. Don't get me wrong. I love some good '90s/early-2000s R&B. But when I'm splashing around in a wave pool with my five-year-old, I'm not sure I need to hear: Sparkle - "Be Careful" Brian McKnight - "Anytime" Brian McKnight - "Back at One" 112 - "Cupid" Joe - "I Wanna Know" Boyz II Men - "A Song for Mama" Like, I love the sappy, nostalgic stuff from the BET Best of Planet Groove album as much as the next person but maybe not while I'm standing waist-deep in a wave pool trying to prevent my five-year-old from wandering into the deep end. At one point I genuinely thought: Are you trying to put me to sleep, or are you trying to make me reflect on my first girlfriend? Because it was working. I'm standing there thinking about how we used to eat at the Kmart Cafe before the Birds game on a Sunday afternoon in ninth grade. Ahh, life was simpler then. Now I'm trying to explain to my kid that he cannot go any farther into the wave pool because he doesn't know how to swim. Does he understand? No. Does Brian McKnight understand what I'm going through? Apparently not because he's serenading me like I'm sitting alone in my bedroom staring at an old photo album. I'm just asking for a little more BPM. I'm not saying turn the place into Disney Jr. radio but maybe we can at least move the R&B selection from "Anytime" to something with a little more bop. Give me "Honey". Give me "I Get Lonely". Give me early 90s Janet. Give me literally anything that makes me feel like I'm at a water park instead of recovering from a breakup in 2002. The music selection is so bizarre and noticeable that it actually became one of the defining parts of my experience. At some point I started wondering if I needed to be evaluated for some sort of condition. The fact that I'm writing this review probably means I do. As for the rides: my five-year-old absolutely loves them. He'll pretty much go on anything except the two rides tucked into the corner of the park. One lifts you way up into the air for a nice view of the park and the other spins you around real fast. Everything else is extremely tame. My eight-year-old daughter will do everything and is gradually getting bored with a decent chunk of the ride section of the park. She absolutely loves the rock-climbing wall and rope course, though, and would probably spend the entire day going back and forth between those two if I let her. She also loves the entire water park. One big tip is if you're local, keep an eye out for the Black Friday season-pass sale. They usually have a fantastic deal and if you're planning on going at least twice over the course of the year, I'd strongly recommend just buying the season pass when it goes on sale over the holiday. I believe it's around $80 per person for the season pass, give or take $10. I honestly don't remember the exact price. Friends of mine who went recently said they paid around $50 per person for a single day. I do not think it's worth it at that price. Overall the kids love it, there's plenty to do, and the water park is adequate for kids. Just be prepared for the possibility that you'll spend your afternoon fighting the waves while Brian McKnight emotionally transports you back to a relationship you haven't thought about in 20 years.

    THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ LOTS of super fun construction-themed rides and cool machinary activities (e.g., excavator operation, crane operation, driving tractors, etc.) for all ages that you just don't find at other amusement parks. + Very manageable layout and park size for kids. Not a huge park at all. A lot of the rides/activities are next to each other. + Water park is surprisingly huge and spacious with 3 pool areas, including a giant water slide, lazy river ANDDD an impressive wave pool that is loadddds of fun. ++++ Life-jackets are provided for free to kids. ++++ PLENTTTTY of adirondack chairs are available for park-goers to sit on and move around freely. + Multiple areas to buy food with typical amusement park pricing. ++++ Food sold includes burgers, hot dogs, corn dogs, cheese pizza, chicken sammies, giant pretzels, chicken tenders, quesadillas, nuggets, deliccccious soft serve ice cream and much more. ++++ Souvenir Cup purchases come with free soft drink refills on the day of purchase. $15.49 for a souvenir cup, while individual soft drink purchases cost around $4.50 (as of June 2026). + Multiple covered picnic tents to provide relief from the sun. + Big private parking lot has plenty of spaces. + Private parties can be booked here. THE NOT SO GOOD ----------------------------- - Activities, such as driving or operating heavy machinary, can feel repetitious when jumping from ride to ride. - Admission tickets are pricey at approximately $50 a pop. - Only open until 6 PM daily, but the water park does open at 10 AM, with the ride park opening at 12 PM. Wish they were open a bit later. MIXED THOUGHTS ---------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Visited on a scorching Sunday in early June and it was busy, but not overly so. No waits for any rides/activities. Plenty of space and seats in the water park and dining pavilions. Definitely could get busier during the summer when school is out, but early June was perfect. CONCLUSION -------------------- = Loved that the park wasn't overly crowded. The water park was surprisingly large and fun. The rides park was fun, but the construction-themed rides/activities definitely felt repetitious after a few. The price of admission could be a littttle more affordable as well.

    Kept seeing the ads and decided to take a road trip from MA to visit here. I will say my son who's…read morepreschool age really enjoyed his time, which was what mattered the most, but we were incredibly disappointed with the staff and the photo pass, specially at the Elmo meet and greet (8/29/26). The park posts the scheduled times and locations for meet and greet opportunities and you can pay ahead for you to get your photos for the entire day digitally. Thinking this would be a good purchase, we did that, but quickly regretted it for $50! This was our first family vacation and destination trip for my son. We drove 6 hours and stayed nearby so we could have a full day at the park. Our main objective was to get him to see Elmo, who he loves. We weren't sure how he would do with the characters, but he ran right up to Elmo (and all the others) seamlessly which was great surprise to us. We took a family photo from the staff (after we were explicitly and rudely told they would not use our personal phones to do so) which I thought nothing of since we had the photo pass. We went to the kiosk around the corner and after 15 mins of the girl looking for the photo we had taken 2 mins prior, she realized the photographers were cutting people off and it was uncentered, so now not only do we not have any photos at all to show for this magical moment for our family ,we also had nothing to show for the hefty price tag. The girl rudely told us to get back in the line which we had already waited in and we told her that was unacceptable since this was clearly their mistake. Several people behind us saw this interaction and had the same exact thing. They eventually let us go first when Elmo came back from break and treated us as if we were acting entitled and the girl who was messing up everyone's photos very rudely pointed her fingers at us saying "you have no more than 30 seconds" as if any of this was somehow our fault. The photo was ok but not what we envisioned and that entire interaction wasted almost 40 mins of our day and I felt so incredibly mistreated, especially since we had paid for the photopass. What I will also say about the photopass was that despite doing everything they told us, exactly NONE of them showed up in the website as I was told they would and I had to go to customer service to have them uploaded. In this day in age with AI and modern technology, their whole photosystem being based on antiquated websites and the photographers giving a clipboard and some kind of handwritten notes wither photos to manually add them to a queue is unacceptable, especially if they want to act like this is Disneyworld and families can't use their own devices. I'm going to be reaching out with this feedback specifically and asking for the $50 back because it felt almost fraudulent for how poorly executed it is and that even the employees at the main service desk agreed but also are trained to not be able to resolve concerns. Many other people were having similar issues, including one who had paid for a season pass and said they had no pictures from every visit all year, so I felt validated in my frustration. Overall, my son had fun, the rides were mostly great for young kids and all the other character meets went flawlessly and created core memories for him. I'm not sure if this was just an abnormally busy day here for the end of the season, but I had a lot of interactions with other parents who were astonished at how slow the lines for all the food stands were with a single person working all of them and that barely any employees had any sort of empathy for the clientele this park attracts. Others I talked to that regularly come said they never saw it like that. They need to have some compassion and understanding that they're entertaining young kids and get their act together on the digital photos if they're going to continue to budget for mass advertising on social media to drive traffic from far away like us.

My 2 year old son had so much fun and went on one of the roller coasters 6 times!!! The food was great, the staff were all friendly, and the lines for the rides for the most part were okay. The carousel was the longest. The downside, it's expensive. $40 to park was something I couldn't imagine being that high. We tried to budget as much as possible so my family of 5 only got 3 refillable cups of soda and only the kids ate, and it was well over $100, then Dippin Dots for them 3 for $40. Then the gift shop which I'm not even sure what that cost, I'm afraid to look at my bank statement lol. Overall I would be very excited to bring my family here again, just be aware that this is an expensive trip!
