#TodayInOaklandHistory September 2, 1950, Children's Fairyland first opened! Admission was 9 cents for children under 12, and 14 cents for everyone else.

In the original design, adults had to stoop down and pass through the shoe, the same as children. Children's Fairyland also once had its own tiny post office.
