My oldest is 5 and he loves it. But I think they only have those things on Sundays. Maybe they could do them for Saturdays too.
I am not saying that this would be the ideal thing for kids to do all the time. But we are talking about cheaper means of entertainment. I'm just saying that there are/could be other ways to entertain people/kids at racetracks to draw them in on days when they don't want to spend lots of money to go to places like amusement parks, baseball games etc.....

I live in Central Jersey I have takin my kids there a bunch. It's ok certainly no better or more fun then Dornbrook park in Colts neck which is free.. It's an ok attempt to lure mom and dad to the track and schlept the kids.. Too me its fool's gold.. Five year olds will like any park...Monmouth Belmont or Dornbrook as long as they have stuff to play with.. But its the park they are there for not the track.. Look if people are interested in entertaining the kids they go to Point Pleasant not Belmont because Andy Serling is in a dunking booth.
