It's not just the shopping that makes West Nyack's Palisades Center a destination spot for families (though, seriously, who can resist four full floors of restaurants and shops?). Palisades Center is also an entertainment complex that lures patrons of all ages. From indoor play spaces larger than many elementary schools to carnival rides and extreme ropes courses, this gigantic mall has something for kids with every interest—with plenty to entertain parents, as well.
In addition to tons of family-friendly entertainment, the center hosts an annual outdoor carnival and a variety of free community events, including free activities for kids throughout the summer and on holidays. Read on for our rundown of the best kid-friendly attractions at the mall.
