slo’s FRIDAY 2/3 poll - Universal Studios Florida

[CdnCarrie]

I have been to USH several times (grew up in Southern CA) but have never been to USO even though we live locally. My husband and I would love to go but there is zero for our kids to do and I would have to pay for two of them to get in and sit around all day so that’s not going to happen as much as we would like to check it out.

Why can't they do anything? I always thought UO was amazing for young kids - wonderful playareas, Barney show (is that still there), all the Seuss stuff. My kids went many times as young children and never sat around all day.

Kid zone is gone (ET is the only thing left, no Barney, no play areas, no woody woodpecker kid coaster) so in Universal Studios park the only thing my kids (6 (has special needs both physical and neurological), 3 and newborn) can do that I’m aware of is the stationary seats on minions. Not sure the baby can even do that.

The 6 year old is taller than the 3 year old and can obviously do more but they aren’t appropriate for him at this time.

They can do Hogwarts Express, and then in IOA there is a playground in Jurassic Park, One Fish Two Fish and the carousel in Seuss landing. That’s not worth the entrance fee for our family. It may be worth it for some but we can’t justify it at this point. Maybe in a few years

Have only been there once, a few years ago, and we enjoyed it as first time visitors (with no young kids). Mainly wanted to see the Harry Potter areas. Saw both parks in two days (and Disney parks on other days of the same trip.)

I have been a couple times, pre-Potter, and it just wasn’t my thing. I am not into thrill rides at all, and their rides aren’t always as size inclusive as they could be. Also, I am not a huge fan of a lot of the movies behind their attractions, including Potter. I am not saying it’s a bad park, it’s just not my cup of tea.

Once, 1989. I just haven’t made it back

I’ve never been but would like to go.
