Which waterpark is best for toddlers?

[1rockinmamato2]

We hadn't considered going to a waterpark, but think we may enjoy it as a half-day "break", so I have no clue really what each waterpark offers. And I wanted to start my research here.

DH and I like lazy rivers, that sort of thing. But, not sure what our kids would enjoy. They'd both be under 3.

I've been to both water parks (never w/small children) and I would say, skip them- toddler would be perfectly happy at the hotel pool, and you would be more relaxed too. Everytime I've been at Disney Waterparks, they have been mobbed, we skip them, lines are too long, just not worth the time.

our kiddos all loved the water park. We prefer Blizzard Beach for the big stuff, but for the lazy river and kids stuff we liked Typhoon Lagoon. Have Fun. We went to BB when dd #1 was just 3 and TP when dd#2 was just 2 yrs old. They really liked it.

My kids seemed to prefer Typhoon Lagoon.
our first year my twins were 3.5 (little one 10 mos)
last year they were 4.5....& 1y10mos

this year we will try Blizzard Beach again

we stay for 10 days, so we/the kids thoroughly enjoy the waterpark breaks

My 2 and 4 year olds really enjoyed Blizzard Beach. It was a nice way to break up the hot June day.

DH feels the same way about staying at the resort pool, but DS5 and DS8 are deadset on doing one or the other. After doing much research (surprise surprise ) We are going to try Typhoon Lagoon on onr of our non-park days. It looks to be a bit more toddler friendly that BB.

Great info - good to know! I have a feeling Daddy and DS1.5 will be doing the easy, baby stuff while the older boys and I strike off for the more "dariing" stuff! Fine with me!
