Best Place to Go in Lancaster (not Thomas train)

We did the Thomas train last year.

What could we do for one afternoon for 3-4 hours? Boys age 2-5.


Thanks!

I would say Dutch Wonderland.

We went last summer, and my boys ages 3 and 6 loved it.

I've heard good things about the train museum there - people said they liked it better than Thomas (I personally was disappointed by the whole Thomas experience myself).

I think it was called Cherry Crest Adventure Farm.. we spent about 2-3 hours there with our 2 year old and could have easily spent more with an older child

Ok, then I would say the Turkey Hill factory. We stayed about two hours and my kids had a great time.

if you don't mind a 45 minute drive Hershey Chocolate World is a fun time. A giant food court and gift shop with a free chocolate tour ride and you can make your own chocolate bar for like $15
