Hello,
Anyone ever been to Thomas land Drayton manor as a single parent with two little ones?
9months and nearly 3 year old.
I really want to take my nearly 3 year old who is Thomas mad, but would I be able to take them both on the rides? Would the 9month old be able to sit on my knee?
Thank you.

I tried this in CBeebies world and no, not one single ride. Everything was one adult to one child. Luckily I had my 12yo daughter and niece too to help but they were off on the big rides most of the day so it was a bit of a nightmare for most of it

There are a few rides you could go on but it is very few. Most require bums in seats even the slow ones. They do have a toddler ticket so you could go for £25 but still it could be disappointing for your 3 year old. Our 4 year old loved the rides there recently. They do have a brilliant play area near the zoo if you do go, we didn’t find it until day 2 in the rain and wish we had gone day 1.

I went when my big son was 3 and his little brother less than 1. Little 1 could go on maybe half the rides, so it wouldn't be a waste of money but the big one would definitely be missing out on the most fun rides

I'd wait until the little one was 2+

Thank you for all your replies.
My parents are going to watch the baby for a couple of hours so I can take the nearly 3 year old. Such a shame, I feel awful for not taking her but I'll take them together when the 9month old is a bit older.

Thanks again :)
