Thanks in advance!

There is a maximum height for the various things. Bigger kids can still play in the nets and do the rides, but the other things have height restrictions.

I've tried looking online several times for maximum height restrictions but haven't had any luck.
But...
a list of rides is here:
http://www.seaworld.com/sitepage.aspx?PageID=45
If you search for them on youtube, you'll find videos of older kids riding, even if they're not accompanied by a young sibling (at some amusement parks you can only ride certain rides if you're with a young child).
Also, older/kids adults are permitted on these same type rides at other amusement parks. *If* there are any maximum height restrictions, they would not be for safety issues, but for controlling the number of people in line.
Please note that I haven't been to Seaworld yet so I truly don't KNOW one way or the other. There *could* be ride height maximums per the previous poster. But from just looking at videos and ride descriptions, I would *GUESS* anyone could ride. I've been trying to find an answer same as you! Please post what you find out when you get back from your trip!

And just to share...
For the rides that aren't in Happy Harbor, this site http://www.family-vacation-getaways-at-los-angeles-theme-parks.com/Sea-World-Rides.html has the best ride descriptions I've found. These are from San Diego, not Orlando, so rides won't necessarily be exactly the same, but it gives you a general idea.

The 14 and 11 year old should be fine, I (16) and a friend (18) rode the majority of the kiddy rides to kill time while waiting to go line up for Believe, they didn't turn us away.

I wasn't referring to the rides having maximum height requirements. When I was younger, there were different things that you could climb on (something like a pyramid with 4 sides and ropes on each), a moonwalk type thing, a trampoline type thing, and probably some other things that evade my memory that all had height maximums. I wanted to say it was like 48 inches, but I think that may be too much. I can't be sure since I stopped going on the different things when I was young since I was a tall child.
