Within TV, riding around on the golf carts, playing shuffleboard, pools, the nature preserve off of Moyer Loop, or visiting the squares.
Our granddaughters loved Fun Spot America. I think it's good for maybe 8 to 14-year olds. A bonus is that if your grandkids are old enough to go on the rides by themselves, there is a nice air conditioned building with food and lots of tables. Also adults do not have to buy tickets if they do not go on the rides. Fun Spot feels clean, is well-maintained, and feels safe.
