Fun at the Farm
I am obsessed with the funny farm! Visit with hundreds (if not thousands!) of rescue farm animals. Warning: they do wander freely so watch out! But they are all so friendly. There is no admission, you just pay a small charge to feed them. My girl has...
Funny Farm Rescue & Sanctuary
Zimmerman’s is a great place to go with littles. Hitch a ride on the tractor to get a pumpkin, visit the country market, and best of all for the kids, they have a MASSIVE play area that is so so much fun. I have to pry my kiddo out of there when it’s...
Zimmerman's Country Market
Creamy acres is second to none in family activities! They have something every season, for everyone! My personal favorite is their night of lights Christmas drive, but they have stellar fall and Halloween attractions as well!
Creamy Acres Farm
Rainy Day Activities
Okay, I’ll start by saying I personally LOVE aquariums and Camden’s Adventure aquarium is one of the best (there is only ONE on the east coast I rank higher). It’s not only for rainy days, but it’s certainly my go-to. Plus, at the end of summer presc...
Adventure Aquarium
Eat and Play and Dave and Buster’s, Gloucester township! We love it here, for all ages. The food is great and the kids love having their personal pizza delivered by the robot! Plus there are plenty of games for any age. Even my 3 year old has fun
Dave & Buster's Gloucester
Another big winner for rainy day (or any day!) fun! This has got to be my girls number one place right now. Trampolines, giant ball pits, obstacle courses, and arcade games. It’s also very inexpensive, especially for small children. They even have a ...
Funcity Adventure Park
Check out events at boardwalk hall in Atlantic City! We like to snatch up Disney on Ice tickets here rather than the bigger cities. It’s less expensive, and less stress to get to!
Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall
Bowling is a much underrated activity for those rainy days. Everyone can have fun knocking down the pins,grabbing a bite to eat, or playing in the arcade.
Bowlero Turnersville
Paint your own ceramics! While kids and breakable things doesn’t always go together, this can be fun for the whole family! It has a peaceful atmosphere and super friendly staff!
Fahrenheit Ceramic Studio
Fun in the Sun
I have loved Castaway Cove as long as I can remember. I will say, this is probably more for the 10 and up kiddos, as there’s not a ton of kiddie rides, but it is well worth it and there are a few rides and activities for those extra little ones!
Playland's Castaway Cove
Ocean City, NJ, the epitome of family fun at the shore. Beach, boardwalk, shops, rides, water park… the list goes on. Be warned, in the summer months there is so much traffic it can be difficult to navigate, but it really is so much fun for everyone....
Ocean City
This is the most diverse and expansive playground I have seen in this area! They are always adding things, like a new toddler section, a splash pad, new equipment, making it a top tier playground. It’s so large that even in busy days everyone has roo...
Fasola Park
Want an all in one family fun day? This is your place! From rides and go-karts and games to water activities to quick eats, it’s a whole day of adventure for All ages.
The Funplex
In the summer months you can catch a rodeo at our nation’s longest running Rodeo right in Woodstown, NJ! Grab a snack, enjoy the show! There’s also Cowtown Cowboy Outfitters next door that has a great selection of western style clothing, toys and dec...
Cowtown Rodeo
Scotland Run is another favorite! We love hosting parties here, but you can also play, fish off one of the multiple piers, or kayak! In the summer months there are free kayak rentals and lots of fun activities and programs for kids
Scotland Run Park
You read that right! Check out this very kid friendly restaurant for a lunch outing where the kids can enjoy plenty of playground time
Teenie Hut Jr's
Twinkiss in Clayton is second to none! While their specialty is ice cream, they offer quick service food like hot dogs and pretzels. Grab some quick dinner and play in the big play area to work it all off!
Twin Kiss Drive In
Local History, but Fun!
Take a walk along the Delaware river at historic Red Bank Battlefield. This battleground has been beautifully transformed into a park with lots of history loaded in. Watch for local events like butterfly festivals and family history days!
Red Bank Battlefield Park
Take a tour of the Battleship NJ on the Camden waterfront! This could really be rain or shine, as most of it’s inside, but you will get some deck time as well. This gorgeous piece of history is well worth the visit. Small children may not have fun, b...
Battleship New Jersey
