We brought my 4 year old here and didn't end up staying. You buy a card with points on it and each activity/game is a number of points. There were only a handful of people there when we visited. I presume they cater more to birthday parties than individuals.

We love it here. The pool is huge so even if there are a lot of people there, it doesn't seem it. There is an extra fee for the pool but it is only $2 for adults, $1 for children, and children under 5 are free. The zoo is cute. The larest of the animals being the bears. Along the way you can read about the tress and the history of the Hudson River area. We haven't gotten around to hiking around the lake, but plan to go back in the fall to do so. There is also a playground and merry-go-round for the kids. A lot of people also come for the day to cook on the grills and picnic.

Your admission to the lake includes the "Saturation Station" which is a small water park area with a few slides for the older kids/adults, and areas for the smaller kids to run around. The amusement park area is old, but cute for the kids. There is an arcade and food you can purchase. You can also take a boat ride and watch a show.

Beautiful flowers, steams, a waterfall, a bridge to cross, gardens to sit in and relax, this is a fun place for both kids and adults alike to explore. Bring your camera because you can capture some breathtaking photos here. It is so very peaceful here!

This mall has a number of kids stores including Lego, Disney Store (many of the others in the area have closed), Build-a-bear, Robotgalaxy, as well as many kids clothing stores. There is an IMAX theater, an ice rink, and Krazy City. Not just a place to shop! Be warned that it is very difficult to find a parking spot during the winter!
