This site is full of solid advice. Takes hours to read it all. I bet you could just knock on a neighbor's door at Leavitt Park and ask somebody to join you for an hour or two. Look in the yard first to see if they have toys suitable for your kid's age group. An hour with somebody pointing out makers and other highlights is worth many hours of reading here. Playmates for your kids? Priceless.
Coming from the SE, the bay in front of Leavitt Park looks pretty wide open. For some reason the horseshoe of buoys marking a huge shallow rocky area has a big opening on that side. You can drive right in. Oops. A local can line you up with a couple of landmarks and a "do not cross" line, so you will be safe even if the buoys disappear in the sun.
NH is the only state where safe passage requires headway speed when within 150 feet of another vessel. The buoy system is unique too, but easy to learn if you back it up with landmarks and a chart.
Have fun.
