There are little baby chicken and ant farm.
There is a quiet building corner for kids.
There is a cafe on-site. But with your wristband you can go in and out all day long, so you can visit any of the many restaurants or Tartu farmer's market nearby. Or go for a swim or a nap, and then come back in the evening.
