Weekday mornings are the best time to go, especially now that most of the kids are done with Spring Break. The earlier in the week, the better.

I agree weekday mornings are best, get there right when they open if you can so you can park on site. Although taking the shuttle bus is pretty easy.

Private schools have spring break the week of March 25th and a lot of public districts have Friday off as well that week, so keep that in mind.

Also, not sure when, but the new Children's garden was scheduled to open in April last I heard. You may want to go before that opens as I'm sure that will draw even more people. I know I can't wait to check it out

The children's garden was moved back to October. So no worries about that yet.
