I have two daughters, both under 3 years old, and I’d like to take them to the racetrack at some point. I’m just not sure when. It’s somethng that I always look back on as good memories with my own dad and both of my grandfathers. I’d love for it to be something that I can share with them.

What is a good age to take your kids to the track for the first time? And what is a good track to do it at? I’m in New Jersey and can pretty easily get to Parx, Delaware Park, and Monmouth Park. Parx is the closest but my initial inclination is to take them somewhere nicer than that.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

Delaware has the nice picnic grounds where lots of families congregate..

Monmouth is family-friendly as well including the miniature golf course.
