Recs for San Antonio with younger kids

We've got a trip in mid-March with a couple of families with kids (6 to > 1 yr, but most preschool/toddler) to San Antonio.
I know there is lots to do in San Antonio, but I wasn't sure how much younger kids would enjoy all of it. I'd like to know what others think about places like Sea World, Lego Land, The Riverwalk area, etc. as entertainment for smaller kids.
Some suggestions for good places to eat that can easily accommodate a couple of young families like this would also be appreciated. I am personally looking forward to some good Texas BBQ.
Thanks for the help!

Boat ride at the Riverwalk is good for kids although it's really just a canal at best. Food down there is overpriced at best, tourist shakedown.
Mi Tierra can accommodate a group and it's not far from the Riverwalk. They're a bakery too for the kids.
Lots of great food options at the Pearl complex, used to be Pearl brewery now converted into a retail complex. Water fountains and stuff for kids to play in.
Sea World is good. Six Flags Fiesta. There's an amusement park catering to smaller children called Morgan's Wonderland.
Not any good BBQ on the Riverwalk that I know of. A couple good places are Smoke, Two Bros BBQ Market, Blackboard, Alamo BBQ Co...not near the real Alamo. Btw, if you've never been to the Alamo don't bother. It's super boring no matter your age.

Pinkertons just opened a second location in San Antone. The original in Houston is really great so I imagine that one would be too.

The San Antonio Zoo is a great zoo. Natural Bridge Caverns could be neat depending on ages and interests.

Just took our two boys there (7/6), def recommend Seaworld and Six flags. The riverwalk was OK at best, good if you are just wanting to waste time. I do not recommend legoland, thats $100 you will never get back. Pretty much 2 rooms, 1 set up as a city and the other is a room with legos thrown around and people letting their kids act the arse.

Check out San Pedro Springs Park. Huge park close to downtown, has a clear cool natural spring and the city made a natural springs swimming pool out of it. Great park and place for kids to romp and tire themselves.

Check out the "doseum"- its a children's museum with a ton of interactive exhibits. The wife and I had as much fun as the kids. It's also very close to the zoo, which is probably one of the better zoo's I've been to.
