Post Punk Kitchen Forum

Hi. This fall, I will be stopping in Philly for a few days before heading to the in laws in Harrisburg. I have two girls under the age of 2 and am looking for kid friendly to do and eat. I am also taking this time to check out the city to potentially move here in a couple years as it is close but not too close to the in laws and has more vegan options compared to St.Pete, FL. What are some nice suburbs to live and raise kids in?

Hi there!

I live just outside Philly in Ardmore (Haverford Township) which is nice neighborhood for families! We also have great schools. Mt.Airy is also an area that's very kid/family friendly.

Here's some fun ideas-
The Please Touch Museum https://tickets.pleasetouchmuseum.org/
Smith Playground http://smithkidsplayplace.org/
Academy of Natural Science http://www.ansp.org/

Kid friendly places to eat-
I don't eat in Center City often because with two kids (ages 6 and 10 months) can be a challenge! We do like going to Blackbird Pizzeria though since there's a park right across the street!
Singapore Chinese and Harmony are both kind to children.
You can go to the Franklin Fountain and get a vegan ice cream cone with the kids! http://www.franklinfountain.com/

Hope these tips help! Good luck.
