Kennett Square
Longwood Gardens
Worth every penny, and worth the drive down to Kennett Square. The children's garden is exceptional — water features kids can actually interact with, a treehouse, tunnel, and enough sensory input to keep even toddlers occupied for two hours. The indoor conservatory is the move in winter. Buy tickets in advance; walk-ups often sell out on peak days.
