- DUPLO® Splash Safari: There is a designated space for toddlers and other little kids. It’s a shallow water play area lined with little slides and LEGO® DUPLO® animals larger than life, – perfect for introducing them to water play in a safe and fun-sounding manner.
- Red Rush: This is a family raft ride that accommodates up to 6 people. It carries you down a long, winding track for a very thrilling ride that everyone in the family can enjoy together.
- LEGO® Wave Pool: LEGOLAND’s wave pool is more or less suited for the little ones, with milder waves is fun for paddling and cooling off without being dangerous and overwrought.
