Best Options to entertain a 2.5 year old?

We%26#39;ve already lined up Sesame Place, Please Touch Museum, and the Franklin Institute. Any other ideas?

Best Options to entertain a 2.5 year old?

Your child is probably too young for the FI. Consider the Academy of Natural Sciences instead. Outside In, on the 3rd floor of the Academy, is especially nice for toddlers.

The Reading Terminal Market is another favorite spot because of all the activity, food, music (there%26#39;s a piano at one seting area and other live music at Friday lunchtime) and just a really good vibe. My kids have always been happy to go there.

Depending on your child, the Philadelphia Museum of Art may be a good choice. My daughter always loved it, my son at 2 1/2 was too rambunctious.

Definitely agree on substituting the Academy for the FI. The dinosaur area and the diaramas should also be entertaining. As I recall there is an area where you can ';dig'; for fossils. Also, there is a butterfly room.

The Philadelphia zoo is another possibility.

Ditto on the zoo or Nat Sciences versus the FI. Even though they are more kid focused, the FI is still targeted for ages 6 and up in general.

There%26#39;s a park near Old City called Three Bears park, if you just need somewhere to let off some steam (depending on where you are staying)

Three Bears is on the 300 block of Delancy. We love it!

The seasame street place and the philadelphia zoo just be careful outside of the zoo area its a bad part.

The Adventure Aquarium in Camden is right across the river. My little one loves it.
