Paultons Park with baby? And what it's like in the summer holidays?

Has anybody taken a baby to Paultons/Peppa Pig world and know whether they're allowed on the really basic rides that are just a car/train/boat sat on your lap? I know there are no height restrictions on a lot of the rides but still don't know whether they let a baby on. He will be 10 months old.

Also, does Paultons get really awful in the holidays like e.g. Chessington does? We took DD outside of holidays and found the astonishing trick of going to the rest of the park first, which was practically empty, and Peppa world in the afternoon which was then practically empty despite having been all 30min queues all morning but is it like this in school holidays too?

My friend went last summer holidays and took her 3 month old on some of the peppa pig rides. She went the first week of the holidays and said it was no busier than when she went earlier in the year.
i have been at May & oct half term and it was nothing like chessington. I did find the peppa area got very busy later in the day but the max we waited was 20 mins.

We went last year when my son was 3 months old. It was fine, most things he could go on with us if I remember rightly but he did sleep through most of it to be fair 😂 we did accidentally end up going on a bank holiday though and I can’t lie the queues were pretty horrendous and our 2 year old did struggle a bit with all the waiting. We might have just been unlucky though because everything we’d heard/read said you never have to queue long

I took mine when they were small, I think the youngest must have been about a year old and he definitely came on some of the rides.
I'd agree that it's best to do the rest of the park early and then go back to Peppa Pig later in the day when the rush has died down.

I like Paulton's Park for toddlers, it's a hoot hoot.
