[quote=Anonymous]This is the PP from S.B. For other family-friendly activities in town:
- Natural History museum (small, but enjoyable-- it's fun to romp around in the creekbed below the museum, too-- and it has a reciprocal relationship with the ASTC consortium of science museums including the Maryland Science Center, if you happen to have a membership there)
- S.B. Zoo is not big but is beautifully situated on a hill overlooking the ocean. You can feed the giraffes.
- The Ty Warner Sea Center is out on the wharf and has fun touch tanks in addition to other exhibits. 
- Fun playgrounds are at East Beach near the beach volleyball courts (you can also eat right by the sand at the East Beach Grill) and at Kids World on Santa Barbara Street near Arrellaga
- My kids love roaming the Rose Garden across from the Mission-- we bring a frisbee and a picnic and collect rose petals that have fallen from the bushes
- The breakwater marina, near Ledbetter Beach, is a fun place to walk out and look at the boats and dodge splashes from waves that come over the wall. When the tide is low you can also walk out the little beach at the very end of the breakwater.
- There's an incredible doll museum that we discovered a few years ago; it has odd hours but is worth checking out because the collection is fabulous. www.quinlanmuseum.com/visitor/location.html
- A short drive south of S.B., off Santa Claus Lane, is the Padaro Beach Grill, an outdoor restaurant with a gigantic sandbox and train tracks that run right by the restaurant, with the beach on the other side of the tracks. My kids love it. Good foot, endless entertainment in the sand and waving at the Amtrak trains when they go by.[/quote]
