Como Town: A Twin Cities Favorite for Family Fun

Looking for a fun-filled day with the kids in the Twin Cities? Nestled next to the beloved Como Park Zoo & Conservatory, Como Town in St. Paul is a family favorite packed with rides, games, and attractions designed especially for younger kids. With its manageable size, colorful atmosphere, and affordable fun, it’s the perfect place for toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary-age children to spend a summer day making memories.

A Kid-Friendly Amusement Park in the Heart of St. Paul

Como Town offers all the excitement of a classic amusement park without the overwhelming crowds or giant roller coasters. Families love that the rides are geared toward younger children, making it an ideal first amusement park experience.

Kids can spin, bounce, fly, and race their way through a variety of attractions including:

  • Tilt-A-Whirl-style rides
  • Mini roller coasters
  • Bumper cars
  • Tea cups
  • Swing rides
  • Train rides
  • Frog Hopper-style drops
  • Kiddie driving attractions

The park’s bright colors and easy-to-navigate layout make it especially enjoyable for families with little ones.

Don’t Miss the Splash Zone

Currently, the splash zone is not open. During hot Minnesota summer days, the splash pad area becomes a must-visit stop. Kids can cool off while running through water sprays and fountains, giving families a fun break between rides. Be sure to pack towels, sunscreen, and an extra set of clothes for the kids.

Games, Snacks, and Classic Summer Fun

Beyond the rides, Como Town also features carnival-style games where kids can test their skills and win prizes. Families can grab classic amusement park snacks like popcorn, ice cream, cotton candy, and more while enjoying the cheerful atmosphere.

Because Como Town sits right inside Como Regional Park, families can easily turn the visit into a full-day adventure by exploring nearby playgrounds, picnic areas, walking trails, and the zoo.

Why Families Love Como Town

Parents often appreciate Como Town because:

  • It’s designed with younger kids in mind
  • The park is easy to walk and navigate
  • Many attractions allow families to ride together
  • It pairs perfectly with a zoo visit
  • It offers a more relaxed experience compared to larger theme parks

For many Twin Cities families, visiting Como Town has become a summer tradition.

Tips for Visiting

Before heading out, families may want to:

  • Arrive early during busy summer weekends
  • Bring swimsuits for the splash area
  • Check height requirements for rides
  • Wear comfortable shoes
  • Plan time to explore the zoo and conservatory nearby

Whether you’re planning a quick afternoon outing or a full day of family fun, Como Town delivers classic amusement park charm right in the middle of St. Paul.
