Suffolk County Farm in Yaphank
eta- West Meadow Beach is awesome for little ones at low tide. It's very shallow and they can look for/catch little hermit crabs.

Regal movie theaters ( We go to the Ronkonkoma one) does a free family film festival every Tues and Wed at 10am featuring childrens movies....Even though your DD is a bit young, you never know she may like it and since its free it's a great way to get her used to the movies !

Next week Barnyard is playing and the following week ET
