I maintain a membership to the gardens as it is a fantastic place to take the kids to play in the kid's area, then picnic in the grass and I even get to look at the latest exhibits--a win win for all!

Pack a lunch, bathing suit and swim diaper.
We head straight to the children's area. He loves the fountain area and the kids exhibits. We can spend 2 hours just in that area, find a grassy spot for lunch and he has had a blast - and Mommy has too!

The exhibits are really neat - but I don't think kids under 2 will enjoy them as much. The grounds are beautiful and we love to eat at their outside cafe - near the water. The sprinklers in the summer are also a great hit with the kids. My kids just enjoy running around the grounds and playing on their cool playground. Buy a seasonal pass and you'll save money

Need to find a retreat from city life - traffic, smog, noise? This is definetly the place to go. It is such a peaceful place, so serene and relaxing - even with kids in tow!
There is so much to do and see - hands on exhibits, flowers, wild life...
Also, provides great photo ops for pictures of the kids or family!
