Mission space - occupying kids not tall enough to ride

[peacefrogdog]

Two of my kids are not tall enough to ride Mission Space. While my oldest rides with either myself or my wife, what can the younger ones do? I know that there is a ride version with less motion - does the height restriction apply to this version?

Also I've read about the space playground. Is this at the end of the ride? Can you get to it without doing the ride?

There's lots of fun hands-on stuff in Innoventions East, which is very close.

There's enough to keep little ones busy for quite a while. I always having trouble getting my grandkids out of there!

The height requirement is for both sides.

No need to go to Innoventions - in the exit area - go into the gift shop area of Mission Space and right past that is a room with interactive games, benches and more to keep the others occupied.

The riders will exit into that room and it will be easy to meet back up.

The area through the gift shop is where the playground is also. It is nothing fancy, like a McDonald's type playground, but enough to occupy the kids while you wait.

I agree with Traveliz. My DS had a blast there a year ago. It was hard to get him to leave. Here is a picture of one of the parts of the area, that we are talking about.
