Are any of the activities in the $15-20 range? I don’t want to spend $40 for a 45 min activity… my kids are ages 4-11.
They’re really set on going but I already spent plenty on other trips this week.
Help!

They had free shows today. And tomorrow also. Everything is expensive.
Seqrxh online to see what larger actives can cost less. Ans also there is a 10% off for chol hamoed on the parks and other activities.
Took the kids today and we all really had such a great time. Yet... It wasn't cheap.

Nickelodeon is fun to walk around, even without going on rides. You see characters and fun to look around.

Ride on animals not too expensive.

Toys r us to look in.

I think that it's very mean to take kids to an amusement park but not let them go on any rides.
What you can do, is pay per ride or buy a points pass, and have each kid go on rides worth to $20.

Free shows, the ride on animals are $10 for 10 minutes, toysrus has a slide from the second floor and is fun to walk around, you can get small prizes for a few dollars, the arts and crafts place might have cheaper options didn’t have time to check it out.

Do they still have the pay per ride option in the amusement park? Has anyone tried recently?
What arts and crafts place?

They do have it. I find it very expensive to do that.
I personally wouldn't take my kids somewhere that they can't do.
The animals are really fun. And there are two shows tomorrow.
Its possible.

It might sound funny but I went to Toys r Us today and it was definitely the cheapest attraction there. Let the kids each buy something in my price range and we spent about an hour there. If you top it off with ice cream even better.

It's still not a cheap trip but much cheaper than, say, the aquarium. And they had a blast.

Yes, you can pay per ride or buy a points pass. Each ride is 3-6 points. For $20 each child, every kid can go on 3-4 rides.

Are there rides satisfying enough for an 11 year old?

Actually the cheapest and fun thing to do there tomorrow if you keep Chalav Stam. Kof K has a temporary certification on like a dozen popular places. So if you buy one thing from cinnabon and one thing from dunkin' donuts and one thing from Red Mango it can be a lot of fun.
