This little park was so sweet! It was about a 5-10 minute walk from the children's museum and made a lovely combo for a day with kids in NOLA. Our kids were 8 & 10, and while I think overall Storyland is aimed at kids in the 4-6 age range, our kids were very happy there and had a LOT of fun discovering everything. Our 10 yo in particular was OBSESSED with the remote control pirate ships. I'm not sure if this is how it always is, but when we were there, they were pay-to-play, but someone had loaded them up with tons of credits so everyone was playing for free. My 8yo loved the Jack & the Beanstalk part -- you can climb REALLY high and then go down one of the longest tunnel slides I've ever seen.The place isn't huge, but it's laid out in such a way that it feels bigger than it is. Everything is based on a fairy tale. That said, there are some components (primarily the interactive components that have a tech/electrical element) that were broken and out of service (and seemed like they'd been that way for a long time). If those were fixed, I think this would be a 5-star place!

Cute place. This part of City Park is not free, but for a mere $6 per person, you and your entourage can enjoy some small scenes that will take you back to the times of fairy tales and nursery rhymes.My kids enjoyed walking around the very interactive scenes. Although they have a weekend amusement park, it wasn't open on the Tuesday we were at City Park. However, my kids didn't know any better and had a lot of fun telling me the stories the scenes corresponded to.It's a fun place to spend an hour.

After paying to visit the nearby amusement park, there was a gate that led to Storyland. It's normally $6 per person. The concept is fun with many different children book-themed areas like a climbing structure leading to a giant slide that's Jack and the Beanstalk. Funny mirrors are part of the Alice in Wonderland section.Despite a fun theme, it's a little rundown and there's not enough to do to keep kids engaged for a long time. If it was free, it's fine, but not for $6.There are restrooms so that's a plus.

Such a fun place to visit to with little ones and also nostalgic for the adults. We were visiting from Texas and wanted a kid friendly attraction to visit while in town.

I didn't realize there was so much to do here. We probably wanted to go to the theme park but it was closed. So we decided to come here. I was with a preteen and a 5 year old and both enjoyed their time here. Of course the 5 year old did not want to leave. I had to bribe her to leave. I climbed up the jack and the beanstalk experience because the 5 year old was afraid to do it alone. It was so high up when I finally made it to the top. I can definitely see why kids don't want to leave this place . I arrived pretty early and we were some of the few people there. An hour in the place was packed. It's an inexpensive good time for the kiddos

This place needs a good cleaning and paint job. Wouldn't visit again. It's $6 per person and no amusement park on the weekdays, only weekends. We went on a Tuesday.

This is truly a must for visitors to New Orleans when traveling with young children. It's not a lot at the particular story land park however the Childress museum is within walking distance amount a playground & an amusement park which I'm told is only open on weekends. Nice nostalgic storybook & I have to mention that it's geared to younger children also

My 2 year old had a lot fun. We went on a weekday so it was almost empty. A lot of available parking. Security at the front desk was very friendly. We spent about 2 hours total here since our toddler want to go through the entire park twice and the ticket cost was pretty cheap. Definitely worth going!

Great place for littles to come play! I read many reviews that this place would only be enjoyed by toddler age children. My girls are 8 and 10 and they absolutely loved the place! We stayed for about an hour, but honestly could've stayed longer than that. It's six dollars to get in and was so worth it for us!
