Families with little ones that love the show Daniel Tiger know all too well the excitement a trolley and a “ding ding” can elicit. But the Connecticut Trolley Museum in East Windsor offers the perfect mix of education and fun each season and has something for kids of all ages, not just the preschool set. Autumn is an especially great time to visit the Trolley Museum because the trolleys—which you can ride as many times as you want—make a visit extra picturesque with fall colors passing outside the trolley windows. But there’s a lot to enjoy all year long.

For more train adventures, see our list of train rides your preschooler will love and find out what's along the Hartford line that will fill a day with adventure. Or, work your way through our list of 50 Fall Things to Do in Connecticut with Kids.
