Many families wait to Universal Orlando Resort until their children are older so they can enjoy the thrill rides and Wizarding World of Harry Potter. However, there is still plenty for toddlers at Universal Studios Florida. Check out our list of the top five experience for toddlers at Universal Studios Florida:
1. A Day in the Park with Barney: Any toddler or preschooler will love this 25 minute show with their favorite purple dinosaur! Your little ones can meet Barney, Baby Bop, and BJ in this musical show where everyone is encouraged to sing along and clap along. You never know what surprises Barney and his friends have in store for you.
2. Play Areas: Universal Studios Florida is home to two play areas for little ones, Curious George Goes to Town and Fievel’s Playland. These play areas are the perfect spot for your kids to get their energy out, stretch their legs, and take a break from the stroller. There is plenty of water fun to be had here, too!
3. Universal’s SuperStar Character Breakfast: Your family can start your day with breakfast with Dora, the minion, SpongeBob, and more! Plus, your breakfast includes a reserved viewing area for the afternoon parade where your kids can sing and dance as their favorite characters pass by.
4. Animal Actors on Location: What toddler doesn’t love animals? Your little ones can see some exciting animal actors in this live 20 minute show that even sometimes needs audience participation. You can see a number of animals that fly, crawl, hop, swim or slither.
5. E.T. Adventure: Your family can board a flying bicycle and help take E.T. back to his homeworld to save it. You will fly through the woods, over the city, past the moon and soar across the stars together. At the end of your journey awaits his magical planet, filled with unforgettable creatures who greet you in song… with E.T. himself there to thank you personally.
