We’ve all heard the slogan,
“the happiest place on earth”.
Disney, Universal, Canada’s Wonderland, and other theme parks provide great family fun and entertainment.

Before going to a theme park
over your vacation, there are some things to consider, such as:
- Price
- Tickets
- Food and drinks
- Souvenirs
- Crowds
- Can be very busy, so safety may be a concern
- Waiting in lines, some offer an express pass but this will come at an additional cost
- Need patience for lines and parking
- It will be loud, with screaming kids and crying babies
- Weather
- When the weather is nice, there will be more people
- Bad weather (thunderstorms) will not be as busy but some rides will be shut down
- Can be difficult finding a place to get out of the sun or rain. Seating can be hard to find.
- Age
Theme parks have something
for all ages, but that doesn’t mean that you should take your toddler. Everyone
can still enjoy themselves but it will limit your choice of rides and it can be
difficult maneuvering a stroller. Also, your children won’t remember it. My
parents took me when I was young but I don’t remember anything, besides my
Fifel doll. If you’re going to take your children, take them when they will be
able to remember the park. Children should be at least four but eight is a
great age. At this age they can do more rides, walk around the park will less
complaining and remember the day.
