Storytime for children ages three to five is offered on most Mondays at 10am and 10:45am. Call or check the website for a schedule.
A Family Value Meal is served daily at the Terrace Restaurant, and reserved Breakfasts with the Easter Bunny or Santa are featured seasonally. The Gardens Shop and Greenhouse offer tempting toys, books, and garden tools for children.
