I was invited to go to LegoLand and experience their cool, new 4-D show that just came out. Clutch Powers 4-D adventure. This is such a great show! He is the newest character from LEGO!  It is a 10 minute show that includes  amazing 3-D effects with real rain, wind, and a wonderful surprise, that I won’t tell you, but trust me, it’s SOOO awesome!

It’s action packed and fun from start to finish.  My kids (3,4 and 12) have seen a 3-D movie before, but not like this.  The little ones kept taking off the 3-D glasses that they provide.  A little word of caution: There is a part of the movie that features a “godzilla” type monster.  We had a 2 year old in the group, and did get a little scared.  My 3yo took off her glasses by then and did not want to put them back on.

BUT!!!!  They said the LOVED it… so, go figure.. You can check out my Whrrl story here.

After the show was over, we had the rest of the day, to explore LegoLand.  This was out first visit to the park, and what a memorable time it was!!  The park is perfect for kids of all ages. There’s something for everyone. My 12yo was able to ride most of the rides.  Some ride were perfect for his age, others where perfect for the little ones in our group.

BTW, in our group were 3 moms (including myself) my 12yo and 6, yes I repeat, 6 niños under four. How we did it, no lo se, but we did…lol!

Here are some pointers and tips when visiting the park:

• LegoLand is VERY strict with height requirement. VERY strict.  Which is good, don’t get me wrong, but in some rides, (little “dumbo”type rides) my 12yo was not allowed to ride with my 4yo.
• It’s better to go in even #’s.  Some, if not all, rides are 2 seaters. This is hard if you go alone with your 2 kids.( we found out the hard way!)
• They have hills, not big hills, but still, they are hills….prepare for that.
• There are other shows that look like a lot of fun. Great when the weather is hot!

If you plan to make a trip out there, don’t forget to check out the aquarium!  It’s amazing!!!! (:
