Hi guys! I have a question about the Goofy's Barnstormer ride in Toontown. All 3 of our kids (ages 4,4, almost 3) meet the height requirement for this ride, so all 5 of us planned to ride it. My original plan was to have Dh ride in the same seat as DS2 and then have our 4 year old twins in a seat together. I would ride in the seat in front of or behind the twins. But now I've read on a few threads they will not let kids under the age of 7 ride in a sit without an adult. So, does this mean we'll have to take turns riding with the kids one at a time??? Or is it possible to fit an adult and two small children in one seat?
Thanks!

I don't know about if they won't let kids under 7 ride alone or not, but I know I would feel uncomfortable about it. My DS was (a large) 3 when I took him and I held on to him.
 
Not sure about the age thing either, but I would also be uncomfortable with 4 y/o kids riding alone. Last trip our twins turned 5 while there and we rode with them... and were glad we did. They will be nearly 7 this time and I'm still not sure they'll go alone.
 
Thanks guys for your replies!!

I'm a bit "pooh sized".....but do you think dh (average sized) and the twins will all fit in one seat together? Then I could sit with ds.

Thanks!
 

Last time we went, I had my 3 year old and 4 1/2 year old. I rode with both of them in the same seat. They were going to let my 4 1/2 yo ride alone, but he didn't want to, and I didn't want him to. It was a snug fit, but we all were comfortable (we rode about six times in a row!). Your dh and kids should be fine.
 
The logistics are always a challenge, but I wouldn't let my 3 or 4yo ride alone either. It is a really fun ride for them, but still quite fast and "zippy"....
 
This was the ride they would not let my dd's ride together with me in the seat behind them as my youngest was 6. The three of us fit fine, dd6, me and then dd8. Children under 7 must ride with a "responsible adult" as well as meet the height requirement :)

We also rode as three on BTMR, Splash and just about every other ride as I was the solo adult and my 8yo didn't want to ride alone. So don't worry and have a great trip.

I agree...
