Not what you asked, but can I put in a plug for Dutch Wonderland? So much better for little kids and way less expensive.

Knoebels is also a much better option for small kids. I’ve taken my nieces to Hershey Park and Knoebels and it’s not even close.

Knoebels is free admission. You can either pay for tickets for kids to ride or buy an all day pass for the kids for like $15/piece. You will spend far less money and have far more fun. I prefer Knoebels to Hershey Park as an adult.

Edit: As someone else pointed out prices for kids ride all day passes have gone up since I took my nieces in 2021.

Damn. The last time I took my nieces was May 2021 and they were super cheap.

My Son went to the school. We got in for free, whenever we wanted. I was sooooo tired of Hershey Park after 4 years, lol, but it's hard to think it costs 50.00 a day now, crazy! It's almost like everything gets more expensive over time ... Hmmm.

I goto Knoebels 2 or three times a week and just sit, and people watch. I live literally minutes away and come and go. I also had season passes to Herswhen I lived in Palmyra. I'm never going to spend that amount of stupid money again

My ex wife and I would get the season passes with the dining pass for Six Flags….for just the two of us it was close to $500….and that’s not factoring gas/tolls to get there either

Ittta! We went there a couple of times with our younger kids. Hershey is better for bigger (taller) kids as most rides there have a height requirement.

That was a 1 and done with each of my kids. They loved it but never really liked going back after the first or second Time.
