Stop for a minute and step back in a time where no modern conveniences are there to distract you. Hang out with your kids and enjoy hands on activities and games together. Take your time no one there is in a rush to move you through. And don't forget to pack a picnic lunch as there is a picnic shelter right outside the gates for you to enjoy beautiful Point Defiance Park. Your day pass allows you in and out privileges so relax and enjoy at your own pace.
