What To Pack For A Day At The Amusement Park With Kids

Ah, the excitement of a day at the amusement park! The laughter of children, the thrill of the rides and the aroma of carnival food fill the air. But as any parent knows, a day of fun requires a bit of preparation. From packing the right gear to keeping everyone energised, there's a lot to consider. In this blog, we'll guide you through what to pack for a day at the amusement park with kids.

Essential Gear for Thrill-Seekers

If you're gearing up for a day of heart-pounding excitement on rides like the Skydiver or the Sizzler, preparation is key. The right gear can make all the difference in how much you enjoy these adrenaline-pumping experiences:


  • Secure Footwear: Opt for closed-toe shoes that won't fly off mid-ride.
  • Sunblock: The sun is unforgiving, especially when you're queuing for rides.
  • Quick-Dry Clothing: Perfect for water rides like the Splash Down.


These items will ensure that you and your kids can fully enjoy the thrill rides without any hiccups.

Snack Attack: Prepping For A Day Of Fun

When it comes to spending a day at an amusement park, keeping your energy levels high is important. After all, you'll want to make the most of activities like Mini Golf, Archery and Go-Karts. Here are a few suggestions on what to pack to keep the family going:


  • Protein Bars: These are not just for gym-goers. A protein bar can give your family the quick energy boost needed to tackle the next ride.
  • Fresh Fruits: You can consider packing bananas, apples or grapes. They're not only nutritious but also come in their own natural packaging, making them easy to carry around.
  • Refillable Water Bottles: Hydration is key, especially under the sun. Bring refillable water bottles to stay eco-friendly while quenching your thirst.

Navigating The Park: Maps, Apps And More

Make the most of your day at the amusement park with a bit of pre-planning. Here's how you can stay ahead of the game:

Park Maps

Having a physical map can be a lifesaver. It helps you plan your route to make sure you hit all the must-see attractions. Additionally, it's a great backup to have in case your phone battery runs low.

Mobile Apps

Many amusement parks now offer mobile apps that provide real-time updates on ride wait times and show schedules. These apps often include additional features like restaurant menus and event notifications, making them a handy guide for your day.
