My baby was able to enjoy time here with cousins who are older. There are 300 interactive areas and new events all the time! My toddler nephews love the market and restaurant are on the third floor. Things to know: It can get pretty busy - especially if there are school trips. If you want to come when it's less crowded, I recommend weekdays at opening. Food is available at the coffee shop and cafeteria areas. There's an amazing nursing room on the third floor as well. There are free Friday events (check online) The membership is so worth it in my opinion!

WOW !!! Way more than expected when looking for something to do with an extra day in Phoenix area…read more Decided to visit on a whim (saw Free, Trains, Park). Really glad we did as we spent the better part of the day with no kids/grandkids (hope to bring them one day) enjoying the park. The locals are really lucky to have such a gem near-by to enjoy. So many things to enjoy from a train ride ($3) per ride or you can buy a day pass for $12 which includes the Carousel (pretty sure). There is a shaded playground and splash area (free) with picnic tables located throughout the park. We saw several parties going on at different covered areas (assume u can rent), and there is the Family Circus pavilion with tables near the snack bar Snack Bars (2) - one building and one in a Caboose near playground. The prices are really reasonable and a nice menu (chicken tenders, corn dogs). The ice-cream sucked us in with "Superman" which takes me back to childhood in the mid-west. Prices were great and the Staff even greater as they were super friendly (could be a name of a new ice-cream flavor). Tables located inside if needed to beat the heat. There is a gift shop with unique items to the park(t-shirts. stickers, stuff animals, puzzles etc.) a museum with the history of the park & the Family behind it. We spent the best part of the morning walking around the park, riding the train and exploring the miniature train building which in itself is amazing and beats some that we paid to visit. They have all the sizes on displays that I am sure a lot of spouses are happy that they are there and not in the basement or family room. These dioramas are intricate and beautifully done for each gauge of train with historic scenes to cool pop-culture ones. You could walk around a dozen times & probably see something you missed each time. They definitely spend a lot of time, money & energy to keep it up. Restrooms located throughout the park, easy free parking and a lot to see & do, if you have kids or grandkids or just a big kid yourself.

I've been bringing my grandkids to this park for years but will absolutely NOT return. We came for…read morethe splash pad but quickly left after a gust of wind carried several of the shade umbrellas and their iron stands across the pad, one of which slammed into my granddaughter, pinning her against a concrete wall. Aside from a couple of skinned knees, she was apparently okay but traumatized to the point she refused to get off my lap. Surely a park catering to small children would ensure the equipment was safe. Aside from several other patrons who rushed in to help, no employee came for 10 minutes and then took another 10 to bring an ice pack. To top it off, the bucket dump ( best part of splash pad) was not working and when we went inside to let them climb, I had to pay $6 just to sit and watch for an hour. Never again!

Give people the option to avoid... please.

We have gone to the Phoenix Zoo three times over the years. This was the first time bringing our…read morekids to enjoy it. There are a lot of great animals at the zoo. Most seem to have comfortable exhibits as well. The orangutans are our favorite exhibit to visit as the four orangutans are fascinating to see up close. They can be seen wandering their yard climb on the activity's or inside avoiding the heat. The animals of Arizona section is really well done. Much more walkable than much of the rest of the zoo and provides ample shade for guests and animals. The zoo is pretty hilly in many sections including the farm and the Sahara exhibits. Be prepared to walk a lot. There are restrooms and zoo stands around, but many were closed on a Wednesday. It is a fun zoo, but definitely harder during the summer months to fully enjoy.

Anyway, I wouldn't advise to picnic in this park since it's pretty bland but there is a park up the road that I found a bit better with heavy traffic due to the tennis court and in which, one feels a bit more safe walking in. There's a Starbs in front of it and other fast in and out restaurants .... not fast food but. yogurt, and pizza grab n go type. There's parking but this park again, not my vibe!

There will almost always be a group of kids running around-sometimes they are appreciating the exhibits, other times they are just running up and down the stairs.

There's a lot of cool stuff to learn and they display it in a way that makes it fun and interactive for kids.

Once 7pm rolled around, they opened the doors and we were let in in a single file line. We sat towards the front and the view was still great. The employee greeted and welcomed us all and he gave us a quick rundown of what we were about to see. The show started and only lasted about 40 minutes. The music was good only because it was Bad Bunny playing but the visuals were boring. It was literally just a PR themed screen saver and random collages put together. Seats were comfy though and the huge screen itself is pretty cool. I would love to see a movie here! For the price of $25 per person though, I expected a little bit more from the show.
