Amusement parks just aren’t the same these days. The vintage carousels and Ferris wheels of old are long gone and replaced by modern versions that look exactly the same no matter where you go. Luckily, there’s a place in Texas where nostalgia abounds and childhood forever lives on – Kiddie Park in San Antonio.

Established in 1925, Kiddie Park is the oldest children’s amusement park in the entire country.

Renovations have been made, but for safety purposes only - not for modernization. All of the original rides are still there!

From an old-fashioned Ferris wheel to a vintage, hand-carved Hershel Spillman carousel and everything in between, you’ll enjoy every minute of nostalgic fun.

The concession stands will remind you of evenings at the ball park as a child, serving up funnel cakes, nachos, hot dogs, and all the other classic eats.
