Legoland - some quick questions

[supergolden88]

My daughter's holiday scheme is planning a trip to Legoland this week. She is 5 but rather petite. Are there restrictions in place (height/age etc)?

Do you think it would be something she would enjoy? My guess is yes yes yes....

There are restrictions for children below 1m. I think the next bar falls at 130cm. So she will be big enough for the small children rides/family rides but too small for a few things

They'll still be loads for her to do....just need to make sure that they will split the kids up by age so she is not hanging round with the others while they queue...I have a 6 and 4yr old and had a pass last year. Most of our trips we made a point of not queuing for anything and they still had a fantastic time.

I was planning on taking my two for the worlds most expensive day out(this ob includes the gift shop which they would have eyed up upon entering the place)I hope it will be ok for little madone he is nearly 3!!! soon find out I guess.

Get a Q-bot and jump the queues - just did so on my 5th visit and it completely transformed the experience. ?15 a person.

Just come back from 2 for price of 1 ticket, with a hotel visit. Pleasantly surprised. There is a lot for them to do, from 3 to 7 year olds. The younger rides are not that busy and my 4 and half year old was happy to queue for the bigger rides. The staff were great and really made the day more plesant. I, despite my initial reservations, am now a fan. Lovely grounds and very small child friendly.

(Quick tip when driving there - take the alternative route to legoland when you hit Windsor - really pretty and saves you sitting in traffic!)

Enjoy!

Jim_the_chin, I'm sure q-bot is the way to go, but ?15 per person ON TOP of the already outrageous prices (?41 for adults and ?31 kids) just seems like daylight robbery, esp for the younger kids (under the 130cm limit). AND it extends the waiting times for those in the queues. Several times we got to the front, my son was all excited, and we were told "hang on, sorry, we've got some q-bot guests".

I know that Legoland is always heaving, and obviously they can charge what they like, but the q-bot cost on top of the entrance just seems a bit greedy. A fiver maybe....

You dont pay for qbot for under 3s

Use tesco vouchers to get in then

Buy the qbots

That's what we do

Sorry, another question not an answer...

Do you have to go on the rides with your children or can you just wave them off?

(My kids are 2 and 4 and I'm pregnant so don't fancy even gentle rides!)

[Fuschia]

Quite a few rides require an adult to go with small ones

It is a great day out, but height is a restriction.

We took our 3yr old along as a treat and she had a great time, however, we did go on every ride with her.

We also took them to Chesington which was great but again we went along and went on each ride.
