We all know Six Flags is great for tweens and teens, but what can they do there if you have little guys? Well, I will break it down for you now! First up are all the rides in Bugs Bunny National Park (specifically for little kids), then gentler rides in the park, then Hurricane Harbor rides & slides.
Kid Rides:
1.)Bugs Bunny Fort Fun- a huge play structure. Must be 42" to go down the slides, 54" max. There is a person inside who will measure the kids. There are several slides, chain climbers, bars, poles, bridges, mesh floors to walk over, and more.
4.)Elmer Fudd Weather Balloons- This seats 4 people and you spin around and go up in the air. Probably one of the scarier kiddie rides.
5.)Marvin The Martian Camp Invasion- This is a rocket-looking ride that goes up in the air in a circular motion.
Also in Bugs Bunny National Park is the splash pad.
1.)The Train- There are only 2 stops on the Tommy G. Robinson Railroad, one at the front of the park and one at Bugs Bunny National Park, but it's still fun and relaxing to go all the way around Six Flags on the steam engine. You can even ride in the caboose.
2.)Colossus- The 18-story Ferris wheel offers great views of the park and a nice breeze.
5.)Tsunami Soaker- Must be 36" with an adult. Riders sit in circular tubs and spray each other with water canons while turning and spinning in a circle. Passersby can also shoot you and are encouraged to do so! You're like a sitting duck while people spray you and you can't hide. We didn't like it at all.
6.)Shazam- Must be 36" with an adult. A Scrambler ride.
7.)Justice League- Battle For Metropolis- Must be 42" with an adult. This is a 4D interactive dark ride. It's inside and air-conditioned so that's a bonus! You get to sit and shoot lasers at bad guys.
6.)Shazam- Must be 36" with an adult. A Scrambler ride.
7.)Justice League- Battle For Metropolis- Must be 42" with an adult. This is a 4D interactive dark ride. It's inside and air-conditioned so that's a bonus! You get to sit and shoot lasers at bad guys.
8.)The Buccaneer- This ship swings back and forth almost to the point where you think you're gonna go upside down. It definitely makes your tummy do flip-flops!
9.)Rookie Racer- Must be 36". Guests are in the driver’s seat as the Formula 1-designed coaster cars careen along the steel track. This rookie circuit is made up of a series of maneuvers including winding curves, drops, and a horizontal loop that is perfect for thrill seekers of all ages. Another mild coaster that younger kids will be able to ride and enjoy.
10.)River King Mine Train- Must be 42" with an adult. This was the first roller coaster built in this park, and the end is really fun! It's really like a baby roller coaster.
11.)Pandemonium- Must be 42" with an adult. 4 people sit in a car that spins 360 degrees around and around the track. It's intense!
12.)Screamin' Eagle- Must be 42" with an adult. This is a huge roller coaster that has 10-story drops and goes 62 miles an hour.
13.) Sky Screamer- Must be 44" with adult. Very tall swing and the breeze and views are fabulous!
The old "Hooks Lagoon" structure was replaced in 2021 with the one above. There are 71 different manipulatives that kids can play with on the new structure.
There is sand here for the kids to play with and a little shower where they can wash it off. They offer free life vests for everyone to use while they are here.
Gulley Washer Creek is the lazy river. An inner tube is required and they'll hand you one when you are next in line.
Hurricane Bay is the wave pool. You can recognize it because of the 'volcano'.
Big Kahuna is a 5 story raft ride. Must be 42" or taller and a raft is provided.
Wahoo Racer is a 6-lane triple drop slide. Must be 42" with an adult. It's 262 ft long and you go 35 miles an hour!
So that's everything that little kids can do here. It's enough to last all day. My daughter turned 4 in May and was able to do all these things with me this summer. We had a blast!
The big thrill rides include:
1.)American Thunder- 2,700 ft long wooden coaster.
2.)Batman- Inverted looping steel coaster.
3.)Ninja- Looping steel coaster.
4.)Mr. Freeze- Linear induction, reversing steel coaster.
5.)The Boss- 5,051 ft long wooden coaster.
6.)Fireball- This is a coaster loop that just goes in a circle several times.
7.)Boomerang- Launch head over heels 6 times forward and backward steel coaster.
8.)Skyscreamer- 236 ft swing ride at 43 mph.
9.)Catwoman Whip- Unique dual spinning ride that catapults guests 164 ft in the air around & around.
10.)Spinsanity- Lose your mind on this spinning ride.
11.)Supergirl Sky Flyer- Spin and tilt on this whirling wheel.
In Hurricane Harbor:
1.)Bonzai Pipeline- Twin 290 ft looping slides with launching capsules.
2.)Speed Slides- 2 high-speed body slides
3.)Tornado- 132' funnel slide. Rafts provided.
4.)Tube slides- 4 400 ft slides, tube required.
5.)Typhoon Twister- A 2 in-one hybrid, zero-gravity slide complex.
Six Flags is expensive, so we do the Labor Day Flash Sale. You get a gold membership which includes free parking for every visit and we paid about $55 per person for the 3 of us. We got in the rest of last year and all of this year with that. It's normally $36 per person to get in, and parking is $30! So for me and my 2 kids to go ONE TIME, it would cost $138. That's insane. They have monthly memberships too.
