Our family motto is try most things once. So we sign up for lots of different activities and events and some of them we love. Below are some that we have tried locally and recommend.
Morris museum
We love this small and sufficient museum, it has lots to do from toddlers up to adults. The toddlers come first with the music room filled with things to interact with for kids (and adults) of all ages. Its other collections include costumes and textiles, fine art, decorative art, dolls and toys, natural science, geology and paleontology, and anthropology. They have programs and events running at various times in the year and various times of the day. Their summer camps are very popular and affordable. They also have a donation night where for the cost of a donation you can enter for free.
I've also heard great things about the Zimmerli museum but for one reason or another haven't tried it yet.
Imagine that Museum, Florham park. Not really a historical museum but a hands on activity center. It is specializes in pre-school age and young school children. Kids love playing here.
We've also heard about the Princeton Art museum family Saturdays but distance has prevented us from experiencing this program. Let me know if you've tried this museum.
The Children's Museum in Bridgewater. The Children's Museum has educational exhibits and programs and this museum may travel from location to location. Young kids love this and it is stress free and suggested donation so very economical. I'd say kids from 3-10 might like this museum.
