If it’s a Saturday/Sunday the Eli Whitney Workshop offers several projects for kids. I’d say 3 years and up. We built catapults and rubber band powered cars on our visit.

If you are into boardgames, we are a couple with a 4yr old looking for other couples with young kids. The adults can hang out with boardgames and the kids can enjoy playing together.

To me, New Haven is more a destination for its food, so eat, lol

Skate New Haven has a cool covered ice skating rink. If Shoreline Trolley Museum is open- has great trolley ride and exhibits. Others will say IT climbing place, too. For carnival junk food heaven go to Fest Faves. Tuesday nights there’s a weekly planetarium show at the yale place, but never been.

Tough this time of year. Yale U has many interesting sports teams, so does Albertus Magnus and SCSU. Kids like going to basketball games etc. My favorite is watching Squash, the Yale Whale for Hockey.

Edgerton Park greenhouses

Brooksvale Park in Hamden has chickens horses sheep etc and a playground.

The Yale art gallery is free. I took my daughter even as a toddler just for a look around, since it's free there's zero commitment you can just dip in and out according to their attention span. Then go get ice cream at Arethusa across the street after!

Dinosaur State Park in Rocky Hill is open. It has a easy short walking trail and some dinosaur exhibits, good for maybe 2 hours, educational and 80s retro vibe to the place. Easy 30ish minute drive up 91
