I wouldn't bother with the short pump or chesterfield locations of CMoR.  They're tiny and better for small kids.  The Central one is fantastic.  It's also right next to the Science Museum, which is also great.  There is also Canal Park and the bridge to Brown's island, which is an easy and fun place to explore.  Richmond also has some great playgrounds and parks.[/quote]
