I want to tell YOU about my fun time at Legoland with my family!!!!When my family took a vacation to central Florida recently, we decided to check out the brand-new Legoland Florida theme park.

Years ago, another park called Cypress Gardens sat here, and the Lego folks have done a wonderful job of preserving the feel of that park, while building on the Lego experience. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking.

As you probably guessed, the park seems to be built from Legos, and most of the rides and attractions reflect that. We loved taking in Florida in Legoland-miniature, which shows the vast variety of things the Sunshine State has to offer.  It was fascinating to see all of the things that could really come to life courtesy of Lego bricks – from the skyline of New York City, to small town America. There were great exhibits depicting Star Wars, Las Vegas, and so much more – some of them were even interactive. One push of a button and part of the city came to life. Pretty awesome!

The amusement park has a number of rides along with some smaller-scale roller coasters. This is a great park to bring younger kids up to those aged about 8-12.  Older kids will find the Lego driving experience pretty cool. Kids learn the rules of the road and then get to spend five minutes driving around a Lego town, complete with stop signs, etc. At the end of the ride, they get their own driver’s license! For tiny tots, there are also a couple of nice playground areas for a bit of a break from the hustle and bustle of the park. My little one’s favorite was located in the Lego Kingdom’s area, which is, of course, made of Lego, and devoted to castles and knights – every little Prince’s dream!

One of the things that definitely appeals to me as a Frugal mom, is that they allow outside food to be brought in – something that is nearly unheard of nowadays. There are plenty of picnic spots throughout the park, and the park itself is nicely shaded overall.

Adjacent to the main Legoland park – and with a separate admission fee – is their waterpark. And as I mentioned at the top of this post, they have preserved part of the old Cypress Gardens Park, and this area is a very peaceful getaway from all the brightly colored bricks in Legoland itself. This area is nestled in the trees on a lake. We also really enjoyed the water ski show, which is another “throwback” to days gone by.

My bottom line: This park should definitely go on the “bucket list” of any Lego aficionado. Be warned that there are lots of shops and places to spend your money on Legos, including an entire store devoted to the new Lego Friends for girls. We enjoyed our day, and the kids certainly gained new appreciation for all the things Legos can build – so if you have a future architect or a Lego Creator, check out Legoland in Winter Park, Florida.
