I highly recommend this for good, old fashioned family fun. I have been taking my kids to see the jousters, jestors, swashbuckling pirates (the boys love them) and swordfighting exhibitions since they were in strollers.
Kids under 8 are free, and there is a children's area with storytellers, facepainting, free crafts and other activities and rides.
I recommend the turkey legs and italian gelatos in the food court, and of course the home-made root beer and cream soda guy.
The costumed characters are fun, so stop and talk to Robin Hood, or chat with the King and Queen.

I was planning on going but it looks like I'll be out of state.
