Fun things to do with a 13 month old and 5 month old in the area?

My BIL and SIL are coming from South Carolina in a few weeks with their 13 month old son.  We have a nearly 5 month old son.  And my other BIL/SIL, who are about 23 weeks pg with DC #1, will be visiting from IL, too.

DH and I are trying to rack our brains for what we can do with young children like ours.  I think Dutch Wonderland, Hershey Park, Lake Tobias, etc wouldn't be age appropriate for a 13 month old and def. not a 5 month old.  DH is worried about his brother and wife without kids yet because he thinks they'd be bored if we went to a kids-oriented place.  I told him that I don't think it's a big deal and that they'd understand.   I thought Lake Tobias because it's inexpensive and I had fun when just DH and I went there a few years ago.  :) 

We're in York but are willing to go to Lancaster, Hbg, Gettysburg, etc for something to do.  TIA!

    Maybe not hersheypark, but what about Chocolate World? I took my son when he was a year old and just loved it!

    I second Chocolate World. Also, Zoo America in Hershey. We took my daughter to both on her 1st birthday and she enjoyed them.

    For the adults rather than kids, but you could do battlefield tours in Gettysburg. My LO just loves being outside and around people, so she would enjoy that, too.

    The Hands-On House in Lancaster might be an option for you. You can paint pottery down in Red Lion. The local factories usually have tours you can take (Utz, Snyder's, Wolfgang's) The Barefoot Farm in Dover is a good place. The Turkey Hill Experience in Colombia might be a option, too.

    For the adults, the Harley Davidson tour. Or if you don't mind going a little further away, head to Balimore. Port Discovery, the National Aquarium, are just two places that come to mind. 

    Hope that helps...
