Visiting an amusement park, attraction, or waterpark is a great way to spend your vacation, and a bit of planning can go a long way! Here are some useful tips to consider before your next trip. You should also call the facility you plan to visit or go to their website for specific information prior to your visit.

Amusement Park and Attractions Safety Tips:

Obey listed age, height, weight, and health restrictions.

Observe all posted ride safety rules.Keep hands, arms, legs and feet inside the ride at all times.Remain seated in the ride until it comes to a complete stop and you are instructed to exit.Follow all verbal instructions given by ride operators or provided by recorded announcements.Always use safety equipment provided and never attempt to wriggle free of restraints or other safety devices.Parents with young children should make sure that their children can understand safe and appropriate ride behavior.Never force children to ride attractions they don’t want to ride.

If you see any unsafe behavior or condition on a ride, report it to a supervisor or manager immediately.

Waterpark Safety Tips:
Dress appropriately, including water shoes, a hat and loose shirt for when you’ve had enough sun. Monitor how much sun children, especially toddlers, are exposed to.

Apply waterproof sunscreen before leaving home (reapply throughout the day) and drink plenty of fluids (avoiding those heavily sweetened or with caffeine).

Make sure non-swimmers and weak swimmers have a life vest. Bring your own if you are unsure of availability and fit.

Children in diapers should be dressed in swim diapers to minimize leakage. Change diapers only in designated changing areas.

Read the sign at every waterpark ride and obey its rules and experience-level guidelines.

Follow the lifeguards’ instructions and signal them if you see someone in trouble.

Like visits to Amusement Parks and Attractions designating a meeting place is always smart in the instance some one is separated from your party. The buddy system is an excellent way to ensure no children are left alone.
