CBeebies land/alton towers

[SweetPeaPods]

We have the opportunity to go to Alton towers in a couple of weeks. I would be on my own with my DD3 and DS1. Anyone that has been recently will they be able to go on anything? In the summer we went to a fair and they wouldn’t let DS on the ferris wheel and therefore DD couldn’t go on as she couldn’t go on her own so I’m a little worried it would be a big waste of time. TIA

Due to height restrictions you will find it will be the same issue as your experience of the fayre. If 1year old doesn’t meet the height then you will have the issue of the 3year old having no one to accompany them to ride as some rides require an adult if they are below a certain height

Most of the rides have no height limit if accompanied by an adult (the ones that do, a baby wouldn't be suited for anyway). The issue is that the rides require one adult per child (if they're under the height restriction for riding alone). So I'd say it was a waste of time until DD is older and taller, so could be "unaccompanied" while you take DS.

You'd only really be able to go to the shows, the park and Jojo and Gran-Gran's house, from memory. DD might just scrape the height restriction for In The Night Garden, meaning you could be "the adult" for the baby and she doesn't need one but everything else has a height limit of 1.1m or more for riding alone, I think.

Good to know thank you!

For cbeebies land it’s a lot about the theming and the shows so they will have fun but like others have said you may not go on many rides.
