Meal plan one day trip to SW with three kids under 6.

[mommaofthree]

Hi, we are planning a trip to SW for a full day for Spring Break. We have three kids, ages 5, 4, and 17mos. We will be there for at least lunch and dinner. Maybe breakfast too... We are definitely planning on getting meal plans for my husband and I but I have a few questions:
1. Would it be worth it to get the meal plan for our young kids?
2. Can you bring ANY drinks or snacks into the park at all? (fruit snacks, goldfish, crackers, etc?)
3. All of my kids are big "snackers" but obviously don't really eat a ton at meals. Could we just get two adult meal passes, and then share with our kids, or are they pretty strict about that?

Thanks in advance!!

The SeaWorld outside food and beverage policy is found here:

http://seaworldparks.com/en/seaworld-orlando/park-info/food-and-beverage-policy/

"Restaurants and concession stands are located conveniently throughout the park. Large hard or soft coolers, glass containers, food, drinks and picnic lunches may not be taken into the park. Guests with special diets, baby formula or baby food may bring their items into the park".

The All-Day Dining is not intended for kids to share with the parents, unless they are under 3. I suppose you could cheat the system (I'm not sure how many "dining police" are actually out there) but its not something I would personally do. Your family of 4 would only be $89.96 plus taxes for all-day food and beverages. That's a really, really good price. And big meal eaters or snackers, your children will find lots and lots to eat.

Thank you! Definitely not into trying to cheat the system... just didn't fully understand the policy. Thanks for the feedback! We are excited!

Something you might want to look into is the Play & Dine special, where you get free all day dining with a full priced ticket:

Your 17 month old would be free.
