Universal Studios or IOA for 1 day only?

[flinkerfrosch]

I have 1 day only to do US or IOA in May? What would be the best park to do with a 7 year old (7 year old is a real thrill seeker) and a 5 year old?

Thank-you!

Your best bet is to check the height restrictions on the various rides, and choose the park which has the most things they can ride. I'd lean towards Universal Studios myself, because it seems there would be more for them to do. Hard call though. If they love Dr. Seuss, though, that's at IoA.

That's a great suggestion, thank-you!

Both parks look so fun!

We're coming back in Oct, so we could do the other one then.

Do you happen to know how busy mid May is? And if there are better days to go then others? I was thinking mid week?

Thanks again!!

The crowd calendars show all of may as slow period, so it really should be fine any day - we're going right in the middle of May ourselves!

Is getting a park hopper out of the budget or the time constraint. We've done both parks in one day. However we don't have small children with us, but I tend to be rather pokey if that helps.

Or if they were sure they were coming back in October, a Power Pass that would cover admission to both parks for both trips. Along with possibly 1 annual pass for free parking/Discounts.
