A farm park designed for ages 0–8, where adults without kids are not admitted: step into the pens to feed lambs and calves, see newborn piglets, spend two hours in the summer Spray Park, and there are pedal tractors, a huge sandpit, and hayrides — New England's paradise for little kids.

💡 Tips
Admission is not cheap (around $30 per person, check the website), but it genuinely fills most of a day. Open May through October; in summer bring swimsuits, towels, and sunscreen, do the animals in the morning and move to the spray park when midday heat hits. About a 1-hour drive, perfect for a car nap.
