We take our grandkids to Storybook Land each year-and they LOVE it! The grounds are beautiful and the displays are so creative! For ages 1-about 10, its the best! Adjacent to it, there are activities for those over age 10, such as go-karts, mini golf and bumper boats. A great place that includes beautiful camping sites as well! Kudos to a town the size of Aberdeen for creating and maintaining this excellent family park!
I wish I would have had my toddler with me, he really missed out! But my adult sister and I had a blast at this cute, yet slightly creepy at times, park attraction. It was a blast seeing all the nursery rhymes that were portrayed and the features associated with each one. Beautiful walking trails, and it was fun to see the buffalo and goats. Art is in the eye of the beholder, but some of the statues look straight out of horror movies, I think it added to the experience. If I am ever back in Aberdeen with my son, I would definitely bring him here!
Absolutely loved Storybook Land, our grandkids had tons of fun. Cant wait to go again next year. Free entrance and parking, 1 card for 10 rides only $17.50, not bad at all. Yellow brick road needs a touch though but great place to spend the day.
I had tons of fun and the place is giant. Theres so many things to do however not everything was turned on and running when we came. I understand with covid, however if thats the case I dont see why it should be open I guess. But it was still fun :)
We took our children who are ages 11, 9, 7, and 3 years old to Storybook Land, and they loved it! The theme park offers free admission with affordable ticketed rides. Many local hotels offer a coupon booklet that has coupons for the rides which makes the rides even more reasonable. There are also plenty of interactive attractions to enjoy for free. Expect to spend between 2 to 3 hours at this park.
Without a doubt an absolute must. Extremely friendly, staff is phenomenal, grounds are flawless. So far were 2 hours in and having a blast. Everything is extremely cost effective. Do not miss this opportunity!!!!
Love this place & park.if you have not been there yet you should stop in and check it out. They having camping on the grounds for your RV, 5th wheel or tent or rent a cabin if you like in the parks campground areas. Storybook land is inside Wylie Park.
Adults and children can enjoy the animals, outdoors and all the statues alike. Went with 2cof my adult children and had fun being a kid again.
Great place for kids and adults cheap place to camp ITS A BLAST!! Will definitely go back.
I love to go here with my great uncle great park
Very fun...had lots to do great place for small children ..and not get bored
Actually i just cruised over there to see if they were open. They are, the train was running. They do have the animals on exhibit. The go karts and mini golf was open. While I didnt go through Storybook land today I will always give them 5 stars for the many wonderful memories from when my girls were little to the memories from the many visits with the grandkids!!!
Hours of fun. Storybook Land is a unique park with tons of interactive figures from your favorite childhood storybook. Everything is very well kept and they have even added several new attractions since we were here several years ago. This park is free except for the rides but even those are not to expensive. Kids got to see figures like Jack and the Bean stalk, Cinderella, Wizard of Oz, Black Stallion, Old McDonald, Winnie the Pooh, 3 Little Pigs and so many more. They even have a small wild animal exhibit, bike trails and a small train ride that take you around the park. The train and the newer roller coaster was a favorite for the kids. Well worth your time!
I have been to this place many times its always great to go back.though some of the attractions do need quite a bit of fixing up
Must take your little kids cause its really neat! Plus Aberdeen SD is actually one of the last places on earth its that awesome!
Very cute place if you have kids and cute little photo opportunities recommend it and please donate when going
Super cute. My kids are 11/7 and it was fun to walk down memory lane of the stories we used to read them!
Awesome. A must do for any age group
Feels like stepping back in time to the 50s but that is part of the charm. Daughter loved the zip line addition on the Yellow Brick Road.
This playground park is free! Its better then Rapid Citys because there is the Wizzard of Oz area. The amusement park rides are cheap like $1-$2 (theres a kids train ride, teacups, carousel, balloon ride, and kids roller coaster.) There is a small maze, toddler park. Large castle, animals, tons of slides and small structures to play in, small wadding pool, concessions, gift shop, restrooms, waterfountains, and picnic areas!
Always a good trip. We try to come up 3-4 times in the summer my daughter loves it there.
The new roller coaster is fun. We always love seeing the baby animals in the petting zoo.
This place is great for families with young children, We took my 11 year old niece and she enjoyed it. Lots of playgrounds and they have 5 rides and also have an area with animals.
Highly recommend Wylie park for anyone of all ages, camp grounds with tent sites and four different sized cabins for rent, there is a beach for swimming and fishing, Go carts, bumper boats, bike rentals, and the famous Storybook Land, also an assortment of wild animals.
Favorite stop when we come here. Zip line is a great addition
Always a fun time, a must have each summer.
A large area to move around in and easy to maintain a good distance from others
Our family enjoyed this place and will definitely visit again! Great spot for young or old children. Takes you back to your childhood.
We make the long drive at least once a year. So much to see and do and it’s free.
Funny day,only wish the train was running..Great place for familes...
I love this place so glad its there for you and me, and everyone I only have to say this when you walk in at the beginning, Everyone should stop and read the big sign too help you to remember that everyone is still a child at heart .GREAT PLACE
Great place to take the kids without spending a lot of money. Free to get in just pay for rides and snacks.
Awesome place. Free admission. Very friendly staff.
Amazing! Well worth the trip. Very fun for the kids.
Lots to do, great for our littles! Ages 5,4,2
Amazing walk in beautiful surroundings and statues. Great family venue.
I loved it...I dressed up as Rapunzel and went there
ALWAYS a FAVORITE place to go when the Grandkids visit! This time we timed it to include lunchtime! A Great time was had by all!
Had fun just me and my boyfriend walked threw everything made some memories
Storybook land is a free to enter park open from memorial day to labor day. They offer concessions and and have play equipment the kids can use.You can purchase ride tickets for the train, carousel, small rollercoaster, little tikes train, teacups, and balloon ride.Keep an eye on their website for special events and activities for the kids.
A wonderful place to spend the day with the family. We enjoyed our day, and I bet you will too!
Highly recommended! So much free entertainment for the whole family. Definitely booking a weekend again this coming summer
Great time other than picking the hottest day of the year to come
Always love bringing the kids here..
This was hands down the best thing ever! Fun for all ages. Petting zoo was the kids favorite. My hubs and I loved the Wizard of Oz, especially Dorothys house. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience
Kids loved it and I had fun myself... Very unique place with nostalgic value.
I love this place! A pleasant escape back to my childhood. So many fond memories were made here.
Very cool place, not saying it’s outdated, just your kids most likely won’t know a lot of the characters. maybe you won’t even know some of them! but still a very cool idea and place.
Great place to flash back to your childhood
Free Admission! Free Parking! Very cute and fun. So many cute little storybook characters. The Wizard of Oz experience is wonderful. Super clean park. Live animals in a mini zoo. Petting zoo too. Careful on Jack and Jills hill. My daughter fell over the side of the slide and bumped her head on cement. We were close by and nearly caught her, but she was fine. The irony of that story. Haha. Plan a few hours, this isnt a tiny wayside park. Worth the stop. Kids ask about it alot. Get there.
Happen a great time here.
Small amusements and rides great family place or just a good place to take a stroll for free. Friendly people and staff!
Wonderful place! The kids had so much fun!!!!
Great place for kids, cheap ride tickets.
Ive lived in South Dakota for most of my life and never visited Storybook Land before... so glad my husband and I spontaneously decided to stop in on our way through Aberdeen today! So much thought, detail, and craftsmanship here - and WAY bigger than I ever imagined!! Lots of fun!!
I think its fun for the hole family
So fun! Follow the yellow brick road to Oz! Be a part of fairy tales, explore the castle and ride a train. Lots to see and do.
We took our whole family and everyone had fun! From the 2 year old all the way to 55 year old. There is stuff for everyone to do. The adults remember all the old nursery rhymes, the kids play with everything. Cant wait to go back again!
So much fun! Need more than one day!
So much fun, great exploring and good exercise for the whole family! The rides are inexpensive and we could spend all day here because the park is so big
Nice outdoor park. Plenty of areas to keep children entertained. Has story book attractions, small maze, carousel, live animals, train and food area
Was nice and clean and lot of fun
Well taken care of and family friendly
Love the colors, play equipment
Such a fun place to visit with the kids. I love that entry is free.
I thought the train ride was nice! I think twenty dollars is a lot of money for a handicapp cart, and they only have one. If you have kids it is a great afternoon. The rides are 2.25 each well worth it, considering the entrance fee is a donation.
Well kept, low cost, young family fun.
Its still storybook land I think they should add some things
Absolutely love storybook land! No admission charge, rides are cheap and very nice, daughter loves it. We drive from Fargo every year. Well worth the drive!
Ive been going to Storybook Land for almost 40 years and still love going. My kids think it is just a magical as I did when I was young.
I love this place! Great for all kids! I didnt care for the gift shop or employee working there. Very stand offish. They could have sold me if the worker had cared enough to assist me.
Best day trip in Northeast South Dakota! So much to do and see. Really worth the drive from anywhere. Lots of fun for the whole family/kids of all ages.
Family favorite! Free! Fun! We absolutely love it here. We spend a lot of time here in the summer and it never gets old for any of us. Sometimes we just walk through the front part, sometimes we also do the Land Of Oz. Sometimes we throw in going to see the animals or start there before we get to tired. Then of course we also have to ride the rides sometimes! There is a fun carousel with lights and music, a spinning high balloon ride, a little train ride, a teacup ride, a small roller coaster, and my favorite, a train ride around the park. There may be more I am forgetting as well since they are spread around the park. The rides are very reasonable.The food is not the best here, so we pack a lunch which no one makes a fuss over bringing in food. The snacks and drinks there are fun to get though! We like to bring a wagon or stroller for the kids, but they do have some to rent.The Storybook Land Festival they have in July is super fun to go to. They also have shows in the castle, as well as regular activities for kids there. I could keep writing, but I think you get the picture. Go! Even without kids just to have a nice walk. You will love it!
Great place for people of all ages. Must see place with a activities/rides that are affordable!
The best thing in Aberdeen. We love Storybook land and have been visiting here since the 90s. Im so glad its been kept up and taken good care of.
Favorite park for me and my whole family. The expansions are great and was great seeing all the new features.
Such a cool place to let the kid run around. Lots to do and see. Awesome family experience.
Such a Fun place to go with children!!!
Always a great time with family at Storybook Land. Cost friendly too! We travel 5 hours to visit here every year. Definitely worth every penny.
My daughter and I had a ball. The staff members were friendly and helpful. The park was well maintained, clean, and so much FUN! Our favorite part was the tornado in Dorothys house.
Love it! A very fun and peaceful day!
If you are in NE SD and dont go to Wylie/Storybook, you have missed out. Go for a day at the very least. Its a stop for all ages.
I thought this would be naff, but it’s quite fun and best of all - FREE!
Awesome new playground by the Land of Oz!
Fantastic park! Great place to take the kids. Tons of themed playgrounds and other attractions, good facilities and the groundskeeping is top notch!
Free. Great place for kids and adults looking for a walk down memory lane. Great photo opportunities. Will be returning
Great food and wonderful place for kids
