What parents say
"Very fun attraction and interactive experience. The shop at the exit is tiny, but has lots of figment merchandise. The ride queue isn’t anything special, and neither is the ride, but it is very enjoyable. The interactive experiences at the end are fun, but sometimes don’t work. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a nice break from the crowds. (Wait times for the ride are also usually low)"
