I bring my son here when we need to change it up a little. It's big enough for my 2-3 year old to run around and burn some energy on the rides. As an adult I can recognize that it needs some TLC/updating but the kids don't care and it gets the job done. I'm glad it's close to home and serves a purpose. Sure it'd be nice if it was fancy and new but I'm sure the economics don't warrant that. If you've ever owned a business it's about choices and I think they're doing a good enough job to have me go back again.

Came here on an end of the school preschool fieldtrip with my sons class. I want to say how amazing this place is, but it’s really not. Even as a mom of young boys, it’s just not great and definitely not worth the money. I’d MUCH rather drive to the zoo, Gilroy Gardens or Santa Cruz beach Boardwalk for rides with the kids.
The rides here are soooooo small! And short ride times. We did every ride in 45 and that’s with line wait times and stopping to talk with friends.
Something key to know is an adult can only ride on a few rides and most rides need another kid as a buddy or an adult. However roller coaster only can take 3 adults and then they won’t even fill up the coaster, so long wait times. Same with other rides. Only so many adults allowed per ride. This place is for small children. To me that just doesn’t make sense. How can this be targeted for small children, yet if my husband and I want to ride the ride with our young boys we will have to wait for the next ride to do that.
We will definitely not be back. Again, we’d much rather prefer to drive to the Oakland zoo, gilroy gardens or Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk for ride fun with the kids.
I guess this place is ok if you are single parent, or your spouse is working and you are taking a single young child.

This place is great for small children. It's like a mini theme park with mini rides for the little munchkins. Great way to spend the afternoon. Good for birthday parties.

We had a great time at Pixieland! We have a three, four, and five year old and every one had a blast. My eight year old was not with us, but she would have loved it too. We did the Monday morning unlimited rides for $10 from 10:30-12:30. We rode every single ride more than once, and in some cases, several times. Small place, which I think is great. Food and drinks are pricey, but what do you expect. There are height requirements for the rides, and, depending on your kid's height, they may need an adult or a "buddy". We appreciated that the staff would let one of our kids ride next to an older child from another family instead of requiring that our second adult ride. The kids really loved it. We'll definitely go back.

We took our 4 year old granddaughter to Pixieland in November 2012. This is an ideal amusement park for children from ages 3 to about 9 years of age. It is not overwhelming as some larger parks are and the cost is reasonable. There are only about a dozen rides and our granddaughter rode every one of them at least once. The staff was courteous, helpful, ensured that safety rules were followed. The park has a covered area that can accommodate picnics and other group activities such as birthday parties. I would highly recommend Pixieland for children from 3 to about 9.

Great fun place for the kids. They are small, but fun. Like the rides and proximity. Dislike: tickets are required for parents to accompany their little ones.

Bring your camera because your kids will be all smiles on these clean, well-maintained rides. This place seems to really care about the kids' experience. They cater to the smaller crowd, but it is really fun for the whole family.

Pixieland is a small amusement park that has 7 rides for kids up to about 10 or 11. there are 5 coin operated rides for little ones. Its train goes out around the nearby park and pond. After a visit to Pixieland, you can take a picnic to the park. You can buy duck food at Pixieland to feed the ducks in the pond. Theres a snack bar with hot dogs, etc. and picnic tables at Pixieland. They do birthday parties. We've taken our granddaughters there twice, and had a wonderful time. Check their website for coupons and more info. The place is clean and well run. Bring your camera!

Took my 3 year old granddaughter to Pixie playland. She had a great time, lots of rides to try. The playland has been there for as long as I remember. Definitely will be going back next summer

I have always loved the idea of this little local amusement park in Concord. It was always so easy to bring the kids there, or the grand kids. Also has a duck pond for feeding ducks. A true gem hidden in Concord!!

Is this amusement park too small for a 7 and 9 year old ?
Written 6 July 2016
SuzieQ has a good answer. Kids are so different. My kids enjoyed it most during pre-school and Kindergarten years and stopped asking to go around 2nd grade. It is pretty tame. Nicer atmosphere than any rides at fairs or a carnival. I don't ever remember any unsavory patrons. It's a bit like stepping back into time!
