Tradewinds Park and Atlantic Railway

Fun things to do with kids in Broward!

Hi Gang!

Choo choo, all aboard! Who's ready for a train ride? Well you're in luck if you visit Tradewinds & Atlantic Railway located in Tradewinds Park. This is definitely something fun to do with the kids and not very expensive. My son really enjoys our visits here.

The trains run every third weekend of the month from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Here's a list of the schedule and rules for riding the trains (sorry no pregnant women are allowed to ride).  It cost $1.50 per ride per person regardless of age (the tickets are tax deductible). Also it cost $1.50 per person (ages 6 and up) to enter Tradewinds Park.

In addition to the train rides they have model trains set up and a gift shop. Watching the model trains running is always fun for a few minutes. All the staff are very friendly and very much train enthusiasts.

When you're done riding the trains make sure to head over to the stable area. This area has lots of other fun things to do with the kids.

Features:

• Pony rides ($3.00 per ride)
• Bounce house ($1.59 after tax for 15 minutes)
• Playground
• Tradewinds Farm Complex
• General Store (cold drinks and snacks)

All in all this is a nice outing with the family. There is plenty to do to keep the kids active and having fun, just remember to pack some cold water and some snacks. If you plan on visiting here Tradewinds is located in Broward county on Sample Rd and the Florida Turnpike, directions. So if you are looking for so fun things to do with the kids we recommend a visit to Tradewinds Park.
