There is a nice kids playground down near where the carriage rides start from (between the Settlement Trading Post and the Trails End/Crockett's Tavern buildings).
Here's a photo to help.

Boating into the Fort drops you at the marina dock at the top of this pic to the right of where teh white beach sand ends at the top. The red circles are where you get the carriage ride. The blue circles is the playground I spoke of. I had a camping site in loop 100 (closest to this area) and I could hear the 'squeak-squeak-squeak' of the swings at that playground. The kids will love it.
Different picture a little further south. The red thin line is the Settlement Playground again.

The blue circle area in the second picture is the new Tri-Circle-D-Ranch horse barn where the MK, FW, and ponies are kept. You can walk thru some stalls during open hours. The thick red line is the pony ride track (the parent leads the pony with the kid in the saddle - trust me, the pony knows the route so it's not hard parental duty). Small fee for the pony ride.
Now that we're in daylight savings time, the campfire singalong starts at 8pm. Songs at 8, movie starts about 830-840p. I will post that schedule.
Good luck on wherever you decide to take your ride.
