kitabell said... I took my 14-month daughter and myself (7-8 months pregnant at the time) to Winter Wonderland while her dad snow boarded. There was a sign saying you needed a wristband to enter but there was no one there to enforce it (which didn't really matter), but there was also no one there monitoring or helping in the childrens/family zone either. We had no idea where to get the tubes or tabogans from as this was not explained beforehand and had to sort of figure it all out ourselves. Then there was no escalator like with the lower zone for snowboarding, to use to take the gear up to the top so I had to drag the tabogan in one hand while pregnant and holding a toddler yet to walk in the other. Later on I noticed some kids using the lower level escalator ramp thing that the beginner level snowboarders/ski people used to get up to the tabogan zone by sneaking across and then walking the last part but I did not know if this was allowed or okay and we had finished by then anyway. Overall I can see this being a fun experience for older kids, but definitely not catered for young families and could do with workers nearby checking bands, and navigating such as where tabogans/tubes were and how to safely get up whether that is using the escalator or not.
