Q:
Will 8 years old be too old for this ?
A:
No, my 9 year old loved it!
Q:
Any suggestions on what times and days during the summer that would be least crowded?

Definitely avoid Fridays. Other days of the week are fine.

Are there any affordable options for lunch within a short walking distance?
A:
They have an affordable cafe inside. About $6/kids meal & $10/adult for sandwich/drink. They also have the milk bottle outside.
Q:
Is there much to do for an 18 month old? I’m wondering if the cost is worth it at his age or if we should wait a year or two.
A:
We took our then 15month old grandson with his nine year old cousins, and he had fun. I don't know if he was by himself if he would have had as much fun.
Q:
What is the admission price

I think these responses are correct. They might give discounts to Seniors or to people who are members of Educational Groups.
