However, approach it for what it is: A PARK FOR CHILDREN. Yet, I am in my 50s and still had a nice time at Legoland. I enjoyed the Lego exhibits and other ways how the lego theme is applied to rides and environments in the park

Originally Posted By SafariRob Our family used the Lego Club Magazine BOGO coupons a couple of years ago. Here's the catch. The coupon is only good for one BOGO deal. You CAN, however, use more than one coupon. My family of seven had to use three coupons. We bought three tickets and got three free. (Our youngest was under three and free at the time.) Make sure you have enough coupons to cover your family. Ask around, ask friends, ask on Craigslist, etc. We got there late in the afternoon and bought the tickets. We were able to do Sea Life Aquarium that afternoon and then Legoland itself the next day. It was great. This was in 2012 so I don't know if they changed the rules. Have fun!

But I feel it's my duty as a the mother of a Legomaniac to go, at least this one time while he is still young (6) and still sooooo into Legos. So I'm trying to get in the mood.

Originally Posted By CuriousConstance Thanks Yooky. Every ride I look at is like, really?! Oh well, at least it'll be something new and my kids will enjoy it. We plan on going to the water park/water play area for sure. I can see us spending most of the time there. My kids LOVE swimming/water play.
