Cool Off at the Fun Spot Splash Pad. There comes a point during a Florida summer day when the Go Karts are still calling, the rides are still moving and the midway games are still waiting, but everyone needs a few minutes away from the heat.
That is when the Splash Pad starts looking very good.
The Splash Pad gives families a place to cool down without bringing the day to a stop. Kids can run through the spraying water, play with the interactive features and get completely soaked before heading back out for more rides, games and family fun.
There is no height requirement, so younger children can enjoy the Splash Pad without having to measure up first. Older kids usually join in too, even if they begin by insisting they are only going to stand nearby.
Take a Break From the Florida Heat
A full day at Fun Spot can include Go Karts, coasters, family rides, arcade games, midway prizes, food and plenty of walking around the park. During the hottest part of the year, the Splash Pad gives families a chance to cool down before getting back to everything else.
Interactive water toys and spraying features give kids plenty to do, while the soft, slip-resistant flooring makes the area more comfortable for younger guests.
Some children test the water carefully with one foot. Others run directly into the biggest spray they can find and return completely soaked.
Parents often say they are only watching. That usually lasts until the first badly aimed spray.
A Good Stop Between Go Karts, Rides and Games
The Splash Pad fits easily into the middle of a park day. Families can stop after a few rounds on the Go Karts, cool off before returning to the rides or let younger children play while everyone decides what to do next.
It also works well for families with children of different ages. Younger kids get an attraction with no height requirement, while older children can cool down before returning to the coasters, arcade or midway games.
A short stop at the Splash Pad can make the rest of a hot Florida afternoon much more comfortable.
Splash Pad Fun for All Ages
The Splash Pad has no height requirement and is open to guests of all ages.
That makes it a great choice for younger children who may not be tall enough for some of the park’s larger rides. Older kids, parents and grandparents can also join the fun, although some adults may later claim they were only splashed by accident.
The Splash Pad has a maximum bathing load of 25 people.
