  • Fairytale Town Educational Programming

    Since opening in 1959, Fairytale Town has welcomed families from all over the world through Humpty Dumptys gate into an enchanted realm. Today, we are welcoming our fourth generation of visitors into two and a half acres of magic and fun that have stood the test of time.A nonprofit children's storybook park and education center, Fairytale Town is home to three-dimensional playsets based on favorite fairytales and nursery rhymes, a family of barnyard animals, interactive learning gardens, two performing arts stages, and an off-site adventure playground. Significant physical improvements and innovative programming have established Fairytale Town as an important destination that promotes quality family time, play, creativity, imagination, learning and fun.Fairytale Town remains the only literacy-based park that serves children in this region. Year-round special events and educational programming introduce literacy and creative experiences to approximately 250,000 visitors each year. Park attractions include King Arthurs Castle, the Giants Foot from Jack and the Beanstalk, a Pirate Ship, Robin Hoods Sherwood Forest, Mr. McGregors Garden, and the Mother Goose Stage. Numerous slides are situated in playsets throughout the park, including the Old Woman Who Live in a Shoe slide and Owls Tree House slide. The Crooked Mile is the hands-down favorite set!Now when childrens activities and entertainment tend to be commercial and passive, Fairytale Town is a physically active, imagination-stimulating alternative one that is needed more than ever.
