There are 4 children in my family, and they all love Coney Island. From the rides to the pool, every time we go there for the day, it's a great family experience. The staff there is attentive and helpful, the environment is clean. The food choices are pretty good (can't beat Skyline and a beer!) and if you buy a summer pass, the cost is low for the entertainment received.
PROS: Low cost entertainment for long summer days
CONS: $$ for food purchased there
