We decided to take our three children (4, 2, & 7months) for a day out to Legoland. Not having any experience on what it was going to be like this is what we found.
Arrived just before 11am, queued for ages, but by using a compination of Airmiles and Nectar points, we were able to get in without paying a penny (saved around £60).
When we got inside there were people selling drink bottles, it was not until later in the day I found out that buy one of these and get free refills all day long, so later I paid the £5.00 for one of these bottles, and filled it up six or seven times - bargin?
We made the first mistake of the day, not knowing the park, and took the right hand path which took us down to the main park, if we had known we would of taken the left hand path which would of taken us past the model village and straight to Duplo Land, where our girls would have enjoyed all the rides, and been the right size for them. Also there is the amazing splash zone, where a quick change into the swimming costumes and they were happy for ages. But we did not find these until late in the day.....
The rest of the park is good, for children a few years older. The rides look good, queues were around 1-2 hours. Not that much space on the paths around the park, so be prepared to be pushed around a bit on busy days.
Look out for the shows, that are dotted around the park, and find the quiet grass area near to the Orient Express Train, very good spot for a picnic lunch. Did'nt buy foor in the park as it was expensive, but we had an advantage as we could take our food in under the pushchair.
A good day out, expensive unless you can get some money off vouchers, expect to walk and queue lots, and I would recommend not suitable for children under 5.
