Butterflies are attracted to the color white; dress appropriately for the Butterfly House... if you're 7 it's terrifying.
David WardSeptember 5, 2010
Don't be fooled by Membership benefit of no waiting in lines. You still need to wait in big lines for Monorail and other major attractions!

KIDTIP: Stroller access not so easy from subway & very long ride. Consider zipcar from any points NOT on the upper west side.

Magical still even as an adult :)

I don't recommend the chicken caesar salad. Chicken taste like tuna. Also chicken strips have no chicken in them. So bring your own lunch!!!!!

Don't go in here past 3, everything closes at 4:30.
Angela LeeJune 22, 2013

Better for older kids than small kids/toddlers since it's so big. Food is expensive and service is slow.
