Legoland will be opening their water park on March 11th for kids to enjoy with their families. Hours for the water park are 11-5. This is a great park for young ones and Lego fans to enjoy. Legoland is about a hour away from Orlando in Winter Haven. Ninjago is their newest attraction. If your guests ask about the ride, it is very comparable to Toy Story Mania at Hollywood Studios except instead of shooting at the targets you use your hands to make ninja-like movements to defeat the villains. The granny apple fries are a delicious treat to get there! Parents would enjoy a stroll in Cypress Gardens located inside of the park. The banyan tree that is there was planted in 1936 and is breath taking to see in person.
There are Lego cities (like Las Vegas and New York City) inside the park and even some Florida attractions like Kennedy Space Center and Daytona 500. There are very few character meet and greets but if your guests ask, let them know it is by the movie theater. This park is great for families with children 10 and under. Since the water park is now open, talk this up with your guests for an easy add on! Chances are you can also add on Kennedy Space Center to your sale since they are willing to travel a bit to see the sights.
