Tips for family bonding at Legoland? Planning a trip to reconnect with kids

Hey everyone, I'm planning a family trip to Legoland to try and reconnect with my kids. We've been so busy lately and I feel like we need some quality time together. Has anyone been there recently? Any tips for making the most of our visit and really bonding as a family?

Legoland is awesome for family bonding! We went last summer and had a blast. My tip: plan some downtime between rides to just sit and build together at the various Lego stations. It's a great way to chat and create memories.

This is great advice! We did the same thing and it really helped us slow down and enjoy eachothers company 😊

How crowded was it when you went? Trying to figure out if we should go on a weekday or weekend.

We went on a Tuesday and it wasn't too bad. I'd def recommend a weekday if possible!

Legoland can get expensive real quick. Make sure to look for discount tickets online before you go. Also, pack your own snacks and water to save some $$.

Pro tip: get there early! The first hour or so is usually less crowded, so you can hit up the popular rides without long waits. Great for keeping the kiddos excited and engaged.

This is so true! We made the mistake of sleeping in and regretted it. Early bird gets the worm (or in this case, the shorter lines) šŸ›

Honestly, I think Legoland is overrated for family bonding. Have you considered a camping trip instead? Nature has a way of bringing families together without all the commercialism.

Not everyone's into camping tho. Legoland can be great if the kids are into it. Different strokes for different folks šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Fair point. I guess I'm just old school. Whatever works for the family!

Hey guys, I found a method to get someone on the phone when you need to call Legoland for any reason. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Check out this video for more info: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

Sounds kinda sketchy. Is this legit?

Totally legit! I was skeptical at first too, but it saved me hours of hold time. Worth every penny imo.

$20 just to make a phone call? That's crazy expensive!

I get it, but think about how much your time is worth. For me, not being stuck on hold for hours was totally worth it.

Here's my comprehensive guide to making the most of your Legoland trip for family bonding: • Plan ahead: Check the park map and make a loose itinerary. This helps avoid decision fatigue and arguments. • Involve kids in planning: Let each family member pick a must-do attraction. This gives everyone something to look forward to. • Take breaks: Schedule downtime for snacks, rest, and casual Lego building. These moments often lead to the best conversations. • Participate together: Don't just watch your kids on rides. Join in! It's more fun when everyone's involved. • Capture memories: Take lots of photos, but also spend time without phones. Maybe buy a small Lego set to build together later as a trip memento. • Stay patient: Lines and crowds can be stressful. Use these moments to play word games or tell stories. • End on a high note: Plan something special for the end of the day, like watching the fireworks together. Remember, the goal is quality time. It's not about doing everything, but about enjoying what you do together. Have fun!

Great tips! I'd add: bring a small first-aid kit. Nothing ruins family time like a blister or headache.

Am I the only one who thinks forced family bonding is cringe? šŸ™„ Let relationships develop naturally instead of planning "bonding time
