Things to Do with the Kiddies At Ballpark Village
Published on April 23, 2008
— Solve one of the greatest mysteries of Ballpark Village, and have the little ones measure the depth of the crater: If acceleration due to gravity at the Earth’s surface equals 9.8 meters per second squared, and you hurl a six-year-old over the edge, how long will it take before he reaches the bottom?
— Generate wind power for Crappie's kitchen: Stand at the water's edge and play "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" on the harmonica.
— Teach your kids about symbolism: Float dollar bills on Ballpark Lake...and make a wish.
