A cool part of Storyland is getting to hear the stories. You can purchase a plastic key that when inserted into these boxes at various stations, will begin the story being read. The park has been upgraded since I was small and each story can now be heard in either English or Spanish...your choice.

Slides are good for kids of all ages!
Lunch at the wonderfully retro Chicken Pie Shop. A vintage spot in Fresno's Tower District with old fashioned lunch counters and great food.

Happy Birthday Cadence!
