The most magical day and my daughter barely knew about Sesame Street characters! She’s invested now which I think is great, such a fabulous show if you are going to watch TV.
We arrived a little before 10am, we had pre paid for general parking and got a covered spot that was not very far away. The VIP parking is not worth $40! We did notice there were picnic tables near where we parked so we could have packed a lunch to leave in the car but not sure how you would get your kids to leave the park. It says no outside food but we were able to sneak in a large supply of snacks in the bottoms of our diaper bag. We had my 3 yr old daughter and 6month old so we had a Double Bob stroller.
Sesame Street looked amazing, just liked I had watched as a kid. We got there at 10, opening, and quickly got pictures with Elmo and Cookie Monster. Then hopped on the carousel and a few other rides. My daughter is only 36 inches so she couldn’t do all the rides but there was almost no wait times so she was happy! We went on a Friday and it did not seem crowded even by the afternoon.
Since the park has a lot of water rides we wore swim clothing, shoes and hats. My recommendation is to go over to the lounge chairs by the Elmo Silly slides and put towels on some shaded ones right away. Then you can ride the rides and hit up water once you are hot.
We did Big Birds story time at 11:30, pictures with him and then The 12noon show over at the theater. The show was awesome! I would skip the noon show because it was pretty hot do lunch and make sure you get a good spot for the 2pm parade.
Such a great day! I could see doing two weekdays next time once my kids are 42 inches then they can really get to do all the rides and slides.
