💡 Quick Family Tips

• Measure kids at home (in shoes). Height checks happen at each ride; a single wristband from the measurement station is accepted park-wide.
• Many gentler rides have no minimum or only require a supervising companion.
• Download the official Six Flags / Cedar Point app for wait times, maps, and show schedules.
• Bring water shoes / rash guards for the waterparks. Lockers available.
• Dining: high variety (including character breakfasts at the hotel). Look for refillable drink options if buying a package.
• Beach access is a nice cool-down or evening activity after rides.
