Seaworld: good for 3 yr old?

[Jolie11]

Is Seaworld worth it for a 3 year old? On the website it doesn't look like he will be big enough for any of the rides. I think he would like the shows though. What is the balance of shows to rides? Or in other words, is there enough for a 3 yr old to do at Seaworld?

I think so. Depending on when you go they have Sesame characters meet and greets and a character breakfast. They also have seasonal Sesame shows. In Shamu's Happy Harbor there are some kids sized rides and a huge play area. There are also a couple of splash areas.

I took my dd for the first time when she was 4 and she LOVED it. Shamu was a huge hit. She would have stood by the big windows and watched the whales underwater all day if I had let her LOL.

My son is 22 months and he had a ball there last month. Your child will probably have even more fun. My trip report is a few posts down. Visiting the fishies.

Absoultely! Think of SeaWorld as a giant aquarium/zoo; what kid doesn't love an aquarium. Also, Shamu's Happy Harbor is a giant play place for children, several rides and playground to run and play on.
