Widget Play Area

If you’re doing a mall run with kids in tow, this little play area is honestly a lifesaver. It’s free, which already puts it ahead of half the options in Erie, and it gives the little ones a chance to burn off some energy while you catch your breath. Nothing fancy, but that’s kind of the point — it does exactly what a mall play spot should do. Parents around here have figured out it’s worth factoring into the shopping trip rather than just stumbling across it.
