Speaking as a parent, it really isn't a kid-friendly place. If one wanted
to bring a child to do something, I'd recommend picking an off-day so it's
quiet and easy to supervise. Having more than a few people around would be
distracting to both a child and whomever is supervising, and there are far
too many hazards around for distraction.
