Toddlers and under-5s

SEA LIFE is wheelchair and stroller accessible, and children aged 2 and under enter free with a paying adult; Wendy visited with a family ranging from 9 months to 64. On both golf courses, children aged 5 and under play free with one paid adult admission per child. In the park, the junior rides include PAW Patrol Adventure Bay and Rugrats Reptarmobiles, and Toddler Tuesdays is among the seasonal events.

Ages 5 to 12

The Crayola Experience listing says children aged 3 to 12 get the most out of it: naming and wrapping a crayon, melting crayons into charms, 4-D art. The park’s family rides and Moose Mountain’s moose, steam train and biplane suit the same ages. The family attractions page compares the smaller five.

Teenagers

The Escape Game recommends ages 13 and over. Under-14s must be accompanied by an adult, and under-18s need an adult to sign the waiver. The park’s thrill rides include SpongeBob SquarePants Rock Bottom Plunge, Avatar Airbender and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shell Shock. After 3 pm, under-16s need an adult aged 21 or over. The escape room close-up describes the seven rooms.

Adults and mixed groups

An escape room game takes up to eight players, and a booking may be paired with other guests; Anthony mentions meeting new people. Rock of Ages sets 18 holes to music from the 1950s to today. Reviewers of the Museum of Illusions are split: Shynovia found it challenging but fun, and Louise found one visit enough. Its ticket is non-refundable; see the illusions close-up.

Wheelchair users

Moose Mountain Adventure Golf is fully wheelchair accessible. SEA LIFE and the Museum of Illusions are wheelchair accessible. In the park, some rides cannot take guests of certain body sizes because of the restraint design. For The Escape Game, wheelchair access is a question for the operator. Guest-service desks rent wheelchairs.

An hour or a day

SEA LIFE, the escape room and each golf course take about an hour. Crayola Experience takes three to four hours, and the wristband can fill the day. The timing page builds these into half and full days.

Local tip

Mixed-age groups can split on Level 3: Crayola Experience is in the south-east corner, and The Escape Game and Rock of Ages are both on the east side.
