Interact with Animals
It’s no secret that toddlers love animals! Pigeon Forge is home to a number of great attractions that will let your kids get up close and personal with some friendly critters. Here are a few toddler friendly destinations with animals:
The Old Mill is a great place to see ducks and geese. These fowl frequent the Little Pigeon River and are accustomed to being fed by visitors. Special duck food is available at The Old Mill General Store for around $0.25.
If you’re looking for more exotic birds, be sure to visit Parrot Mountain and Gardens. This unique attraction is home to hundreds of beautiful parrots that will delight your little ones with their singing, dancing, and talking.
The horses who star in the Dolly Parton’s Stampede Dinner Show appear in front of the theater each day for visitors to meet. There is no charge for stopping by to see these incredible animals. We’ll have more information about the Dolly Parton’s Stampede show later in the blog.
