And for anyone with a love for the iconic Danish toy bricks, all LEGO fantasies get fulfilled here. Located about 45 minutes south of the Disney theme park corridor on the site of the former Cypress Gardens amusement park in Winter Haven, LEGOLAND has more than 50 rides, shows, attractions and gardens geared primarily toward children between the ages of 2 and 12 and spread across 150 acres. Lego-themed family play zones occupy ten different areas within the park and include a water park and themed play areas with medieval knights, princesses and dragons all made from LEGO bricks – even water-skiing pirates who careen across water scattered with LEGO figures.New in 2014 and much to the pleasure of fans of Cypress Gardens, LEGOLAND unveiled the Florida-shaped pool and Oriental Gardens that were two particularly beloved areas of the former park.
And in late-May 2014, a new area dedicated to toddlers called DUPLO Valley will open with a scenic kiddie train ride and a water play area with DUPLO farm animals. Schedule your visit to the park's attractions around a handful of 12 or 20 minute shows that play out at stages around the park several times a day.A good place to get your bearings when you first arrive is Miniland USA, where seven themed areas made almost entirely from LEGOS recreate iconic Floridian and American sights such as the Kennedy Space Center, Las Vegas and Manhattan. Trade minifigures you've brought from home or bought onsite with LEGOLAND employees called "Model Citizens." And do save some time to soak up the natural beauty of the lakeshore location and 30 acres of gorgeous botanical gardens here.Biggest Thrills: Geared toward younger children, LEGOLAND calls its soft-adventure thrill rides "pink knuckle" experiences, so you don't have to worry about the little ones in your entourage getting too frightened. That said, there's a handful of fab thrill rides to get their adrenalin pumping here.
In the LEGO Kingdoms area of the park, the Dragon Coaster is an indoor/outdoor steel roller coaster that rolls through an enchanted castle and brings kids flying past a fire-breathing dragon. In Land of Adventure you'll find a cool old-school style wooden roller coaster called Coastersaurus that curves and speeds around a life-sized dinosaur made of LEGOS.Bring older kids to LEGO Technic for the park's most intense thrills on the coaster called Project X, where you'll feel the power of maneuverability and sudden braking aboard a life-size LEGO Technic vehicle. Young adventurers love the flying feeling that comes with a ride aboard Flying School, a floorless steel roller coaster that speeds along a suspended track. And kids ages 6 to 13 can try their hands at driving, too – at the Ford Driving School they steer their own "cars" shaped like giant LEGO bricks and get rewarded with a commemorative driver's license at the finale.Iconic Rides: Miniland USA is the park's core attraction and it's easy to get lost here for hours explored the nine themed LEGO brick-built destinations that recreate with fascinating detail iconic places such as Las Vegas, the Daytona International Speedway, Manhattan (include mini versions of Grand Central Station and the Bronx Zoo!) and the entire state of Florida, from the southern-style mansions of the Panhandle to the character-filled playground of Key West.Based on the Cartoon Network series "Chima
," the World of Chima has an interactive family-splash-battle-boat ride that gets everyone fired up called The Quest for Chi. And in the LEGOLAND Water Park – an attraction within an attraction with a wave pool, water slides and an interactive playground – the highlight is Build-A-Raft River, where families can personalize their own LEGO tubes before setting float down a 1,000-foot-long lazy river.Special Events: Fourth of July is a fun time to be at LEGOLAND, with Red, Brick & Boom (July 4 – 6, 2014) – an Independence Day celebration during which you'll wear 3D glasses that render the fireworks display all the more intense. During weekends in October, visit the park for Brick-or-Treat, when costumed characters at themed stations throughout LEGOLAND hand out snacks and treats. On weekends throughout December, Christmas Bricktacular sees the park gussied up for the holidays with a 30-foot tree made from 270,000 LEGO bricks (Santa scavenger hunts and meet and greets with toy soldiers made from LEGOs are also scheduled).
And on Dec. 31 every year kids can ring in the new year with Kid's New Years Eve, with fireworks, a dance party and a giant LEGO "brickdrop" that happens at the kid-friendly time of 7PM.Favorite Characters: Characters don't have the same renown at LEGOLAND as they do in the Disney theme parks, but kids still get excited for the chance to shake hands and have their photos snapped with Cartoon Network stars of the Legend of Chima series, Laval the Lion and Cragger the Crocodile (find them roaming the World of Chima). Bring your youngest kids to the Fun Town Carousel Plaza to meet LEGOLAND's version of princesses, the prettied up LEGO Friends Olivia, Andrea, Stephanie, Emma and Mia. And head to LEGO City for encounters with the Emmett and Wyldstyle, the stars of the new full-length animated film "The LEGO Movie."Dining Around the Park: From all-you-can-eat options at the Pizza & Pasta Buffet and burger and fried chicken restaurants with counter service to specialty snack shops hawking things like Granny Smith apple "fries" dusted with cinnamon sugar, hot dogs, waffle-style popsicles and ice cream galore, count on a fairly typical spread of theme park-style fare from the park's dozen or so restaurants and snack stalls.
