Question

Hi,

Our family of 6 (my husband & i and four children aged 2, 6, 8 and 9) are taking a vacation to Six Flags in Arlington...so i am wondering....what is the best piece of advice anyone can give me on going to Six Flags...Thanks!!!

Answer 1

best advice..dont go..wait ill your kids are older.

Answer 2

I have no idea what your family can ride because I don't have kids, and I don't know the heights, but I think this would be the kid rides (8, and 9).

They have La Vibora (Bobsled coaster outdoors. Go on it before it rains. It can't work if it rains because it's too slippery.), Runaway Mountain (This is a roller coaster indoors that doesn't go upside down.), Runaway Mine Train (It's an Arrow western ride outdoors.), Shockwave (It has 2 loops, and 3 airtimes on the ride.), and Judge Roy Scream (It is an out and back wooden coaster that is a little hard to find, but please find it. It's a little rough, but it's really fun.) as coasters.

Than they have a small ride (non-coaster) that goes upside down called Acme Rocket. They have a Superman Power of Tower ride that goes up and down (drop tower), white water rafting ride, a Shoot the Chutes water Aquaman ride, a Chance Trabant ride that goes up and down towards the front of the park (Mexican hat ride).

I don't know if they are able to go on Titan, Batman the Ride, Mr. Freeze, and Flashback. I wouldn't go on Texas Giant. I believe it's the worst coaster I've been on. It will beat you up. Good luck if you want to try it, but I'm warning you about it.

If you can get on these other rides (which I don't know if they can), Flashback is a little rough. Mr. Freeze is just an awesome ride along with Batman the Ride. I think that Titan is the tallest ride in the park. I think it is boring, but other people probably don't think like I do.

I love Six Flags Over Texas, and I hope you enjoy it very much.

Answer 3

Go early in the morning, and go on a weekday.  Six flags is awesome but you usually end up spending the whole day in lines!  They have these express things that are kind of like when your waiting to get seated at a restaurant, also.  You check in at the line and carry your buzzer around, and when it's your turn it alerts you.  However, this can be very pricey and I believe you need one per person.

Have a great time!

Answer 4

get on of those two kid seater wagons that have a canopy. I have seen them at parksway that way the two little ones can ride and when one gets tired he or she can lay down. ALSO it give the greatest place to put your stuff. all 6 water bottles and 6 cups, bring a small cooler the best is the soft ones not the big clunky igloo and fill it full of gummys, fruit snacks, beef jerky, things like that. 10 years ago Disney had Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on Tom sawyers island for $6!!!! OMG! make a few of those for the little ones too, plus crackers and cheese things and pretzels, sounds like fun. Hope this helps you guys have fun. oh btw they wont say anything about the cooler because of the babies, oh almost forgot even though it may be hot in the day bring a small lightweight blanky for if one gets tried it gives comfort more than warmth.

Answer 5

Go early in the morning, say 9 to 10-ish, and on a weekday it's less crowded then. As for the rides, nothing too extreme (but you  obviously knew that already). Maybe you and your husband can split up, you with the younger kids, him with the older kids, that way you can take 2 and 6 on the kiddie rides, and your husband can take your kids on the older kid rides.

HAVE FUN AT SIX FLAGS!!!! IT'LL BE GREAT!!!

Answer 6

get there asap. start off going on whatever big rides you want to while the lines are short. then do lunch at your car - you know tailgate it - bring sandwiches, etc. it is very expensive there. then spend the rest of the day going on kiddie rides, and seeing shows.

Answer 7

go on medusa with the nine and six year old if they are tall enufe

Answer 8

Get a babysitter for the 2 and 6 year old and leave them at home. That will allow you to get the most out of your day.
