I looooove amusement parks. Growing up in LA I went to Six Flags Magic Mountain most often because they offered "twickets" which let you come back for free or a couple bucks. I also LOVE roller coasters!
Disneyland and Universal Studios were also always a blast.
Now I can't wait to go to Harry Potter World! Alas that probably won't happen until the kids are a little bit older.
Which amusement parks are your favorite?

I LOVE roller coasters but I think my body can't tolerate them anymore. I actually haven't been to one in about 5 years. Funny, my mom recently admitted to me that her greatest regret is being unable to take us to Disneyland. So sweet! I told her not to worry about it because when I was a kid, I didn't even know what Disneyland was! If anything, I want to go now as an adult!

I live by bush gardens and Disney so we used to go a lot. I'm a sucker for magic kingdom, can't beat Peter pan and space mountain!

I love riding the rides. I can't wait until my baby is old enough to go to Disney World. My parents and friends have all agreed that we will go in a couple of years (3 years) to bring our kids to Disney.

I love amusement parks and so does my husband. We love roller coasters. Six Flags over Texas is pretty great.

LOVE! I have been to Disneyland 3 times. Just took DD in Jan. It was a BLAST. Growing up we just had a small one near us in MN. Nothing too big and exciting compard to six flags or Disneyland/world.

I love Disneyland (moreso than Disneyworld). I love roller coasters and all sorts of rides and I love how much detail Disney puts in everything. Everything is so tight there - the trees look exactly right, there is fake "dust" on decorations in Haunted Mansion type rides, and "dirt" on the Indiana Jones rides. I really love the detail work they do. I also love the corndogs at Disneyland!

My husband loves amusement parks way more than I do. He can go on the Tower of Terror at Disney like 10 times in a row. I can only do it once. I do like roller coasters. I have noticed that I've been getting dizzy when I get off of them. I think it's because I'm getting older. Also, I do have pretty bad motion sickness.

I love coasters!! Disney World is a favorite of course! I can't wait to take the kiddos. When I was older I used to go to Cedar Point ("Americas Roller Coast") in Ohio multiple times a summer because it was just a few hours from my house.

Love Disneyland! We're getting an annual pass when we move back to SoCal. Can't wait! My 4yo is so excited too!
Magic Mtn was SO fun in jr high and high school. Not sure I'd do some of those crazy rides today though!

We used to go to Worlds of Fun in Kansas City when we were younger since it's only a 3 hour drive, thats the closest we were. I can't wait to take our future kids to Disney World, I've only been once but loved it.

@NYCALIMOMA- We just went to DL last month. We went with friend who live in SoCal. They have the yearly pass. They say its Soooooo worth it. Free parking plus discounts on anything you buy there! Heck yeah! Jealous!

Yess! A few years ago the roller coaster I was on got stuck (at Six Flags in GA) and I've been a little nervous ever since. But I still love them! I've been to Six Flags, Carowinds, Disney World/Universal, Busch Gardens, and Cedar Point!

@Rescuemom10: oooh! Good to know! A pass is pretty pricey but I guess you just have to go often to get your money's worth! Glad you had fun! I can't wait to go again!

@NYCALIMOMA- FOR SURE! They saved us so much at the park by using there little membership cards on things. They are pricey but I think they said if you go like at least 3-4 times a year you get your $$$ worth.

I love amusement parks but find a lot of the local parks much more suited for older kids. For those in the Tri-state area with toddlers I can't recommend Dutch Wonderland enough. The rides are all age appropriate, it is older but the crowds are definitely less and there is a hotel right there that has an indoor water park like Great Wolf Lodge.

I don't love amusement parks that are mostly roller coasters because I don't like them, but I LOVE ones like Disneyland and Universal Studios.

Love love love roller coasters. I prefer Knott's and Six Flags to Disneyland because they have better rides... although I usually end up going to Disneyland because my friends sign us in for free.

I went to cedar point and six flags several times in my teens and loved it. I loved roller coasters. I can't ride them as easily anymore, or at least not multiple times in a row, but still enjoy them and can't wait to take DS to Disney World.

I LOVE Cedar Point. My grandparents took us every summer when I was a kid. I hope LO likes roller coasters as much as I do so that I have a good reason to go back when she's older.

LOVE Amusement Parks!
I've been to Disneyland and Universal Studios (LA) twice and Knott's Berry Farm once.
I'm in New Zealand and unfortunately we only have one Amusement Park so if I won the lottery the first adventure on my list would be to hit as many parks as I could!
