Question

Is it too crowded to take young children to Six Flags Great Adventure on a weekend?

Answer 1

Keep your kids out of Six Flags...it ruins it for the teens and adults.  Especially Fright Fest...please.

Answer 2

i went on a saturday a couple weeks back and its not too-too crowded considering that since its still summer, no one went back to school in new jersey yet so it wouldnt make a difference whether you went during the week or a weekend.

Answer 3

depends on the number of kids.  I wouldn't take more than two.

Answer 4

six flags is a little... too much for little kids

the rides are pretty big

Answer 5

well. i wouldn't take young children to six flags. i mean do they like big rollercoasters and do you think that they can last a while because if you pay that much money for tickets i think its only worth it if you stay like almost the whole day. im just saying and all, but like if i were you i would take them somewhere else. where they can actually go on TONS of things and everythin

Answer 6

how 'young' are the children?

infant- 10 is all too 'young'.. they can't go on the rides anyway.

it is crowded there on the weekends but mature

pre-teens / teens will be fine.

Answer 7

Not a place for kids rides, more for the teens. Try Bay Beach in Green Bay, lots of kids rides there for .25-.50 each!!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

It depends how many kids you have. Six flags is crowded all the time. If you only have one or two kids it will be easy to keep an eye on them. Get friends to help if you have more kids.

Answer 9

Yes.  Even if your kids are always good at sticking close you will not enjoy it.  Teens run the place on weekends.  Gotta love 'em (because I will have some myself someday) but teens are oblivious to kids and will run into them, curse around them, and since they travel in herds you can get separated very easy.  Wait for a weekday!

Answer 10

if your kids are young enough for the the "kiddie land" it wont be to bad. most of the crowds on weekends are teens and they wont be in the area where the smaller rides are.
