It's an indoor play space, with several different options for entertainment. There's an area full of huge foam building blocks for building structures. There's a craft space with all kinds of different crafts to do, such as mask-making, card decorating, etc. There's a dough space with rollers and cutters. There are tables for trains, tables for building blocks (like Lego). There's a huge kitchen pretend space with lots of food and appliances and the like. And then, there is a huge indoor climbing structure, complete with rope ramp up, a big curling tube slide down, and all kinds of interlocking tubes. If that's a little intimidating, there's a smaller structure for smaller kids, too. There's a place for eating. You can bring in your own stuff, or they sell really inexpensive snacks ranging from chips and the like to applesauce and yogurt. It was a good mix of healthy and otherwise, including lots of bottled water, etc. PPH can host your kid's birthday party, and they really set up a great event. I attended a birthday party there for a 3 year old girl, and it was ROCKING! I'm sure all the kids slept well. The place is set up well for parents, such that you don't have to hover over your kids all the time for fear of them wandering off or being stolen, and such that you can relax a little bit. The owners are wonderful and friendly, with that perfect mix of non-intrusive but still attentive. They keep things tidy and the crafts refreshed. Oh, did I mention that the place is incredibly clean and bright and new-feeling? It's not a dingy mall spot. So, if you're looking for something different than a fast food playground, this place is great. Stay as long as you want for $8 a kid (parents are free), or get a Pack of six visits for $36 (saving $12). Pretty decent, considering you don't get hit for bad food, and it's so well attended and stocked. Check it out yourself!

The littlest one had a bit of trouble getting around as all the surfaces of the actual playground are steps and a little tall, but the two year olds had a blast! This is a wooden "castle style" playground similar to Action Cove in West Newbury or Field of Dreams in Salem NH, but this one is by far my favorite. The entire park is enclosed with a fence which is especially helpful because the castle part is kind of like a maze. It's very clean (though I didn't see a trash barrel which would be helpful.) And best of all they have painted things really cool. One section has a big wavy slide set as a dragons tongue and the head of the dragon is a huge mural painted on the outer wall. They also have a farm section with a play tractor and a sandbox connected to a silo that allows kids access to the sandbox. There are about a half dozen slides and swings, and a nice section to sit and have a snack. The only pitfall is that this park is not handicap accessible at all. They have a ramp at the main entrance and tables you could put a wheel chair up to, but the rest of the park would be impossible to navigate and the area near the tables wouldn't be accessible to a wheel chair either.

Hidden and on up high is a larger pond that must be filled with fresh water fish. Lots and lots and lots of shade. Perfect area for a picnic. Very very clean and safe.

The natural playground was such a cute start to our day, then we walked the trails. The views were beautiful with things that kept our boys busy along the way so we could actually enjoy the walk (a wigwam display to learn about native Americans, an old boat display that my toddler loved, and binoculars to view an osprey nest). I would recommend bug spray for the outdoor activities. By the time we were done outside, the indoor exhibits had opened and the facilities were impressively maintained and engaging. My boys loved learning about horseshoe crabs from the friendly volunteers. My toddler loved playing in the little fisherman's section. This was a surprising highlight of our trip and we look forward to visiting again in the future!!
