Fun Things to Do with Kids in Lancaster County

There are an abundance of things to do in Lancaster County, but what about fun activities aimed specifically at kids? Whether your interests lie in eating or activity, opportunities abound. And the opportunities here in Lancaster are unique - you won't find them anywhere else. Read on for a great list of fun things for kids to do in Lancaster County.

It begins and ends with ice cream

Lancaster County produces more dairy than any other county in the state, so it should come as no surprise that we have awesome ice cream. Whether you like the good, thick, creamy delights of a dairy, or soft serve/frozen yogurt, you will find it at one of the many ice cream parlors in Lancaster. Here at VLPA, our favorite is right here in Strasburg - the Creamery, part of Strasburg Shoppes. For more on Strasburg Shoppes, see this previous blog post.

Cool Attractions for Kids in Lancaster County

After indulging in some wholesome ice cream, it's time to let the activity begin. While we wouldn't recommend hopping on a roller coaster right away, Dutch Wonderland truly embodies its slogan, "WHERE KIDS RULE". Another fun spot in Lancaster County for kids is Village Greens Miniature Golf, ranked as one of the top 10 miniature golf courses in America by Sports Illustrated. (Editor's Note: Be advised that due to a bridge repair on PA-741, getting to Village Greens during the summer of 2015 from the west will require using Penn Grant Road. See Google Maps for specific directions). Come late summer into the fall, there truly is no place quite like Cherry Crest, which offers "Agri-tainment", centering around its giant corn maize. See why people travel from all across the country for some corn. For more on the corn maize, see another previous blog post.

Timeless Fun Resonates in Lancaster County

Although Lancaster County is rapidly growing in terms of its technological advancement, earning it accolade from Google, a lot of timeless, classic fun remains. Nowhere does that manifest itself more than in the unique array of roller skate rinks, bowling alleys, and community swimming pools. Some are public; some are private. All have great opportunities to step back in time and enjoy entertainment from the pre-smartphone era. Three of our favorites are below:


And one more opportunity for timeless fun ... the storied tradition of fruit picking. Although most Lancastrians don't have their own farm any more, many farms - such as Cherry Hill Orchards offer patrons the chance to pick their own fruit - apples and strawberries are two favorites, but different farms have a plethora of options. Picking fruit in Lancaster County truly is a one-of-a-kind experience.
