Meet one of our families
"Liam, my husband and I had such a wonderful time at Legoland New York during their Halloween celebration. One of Liam’s favorite holidays is Halloween and he was so excited to see the Lego characters dressed up, go trick or treating and watch the shows! We had fun running, climbing and dancing around. The rides were great and the employees were fabulous! Liam was even lucky enough to see the lion we had drawn for the Halloween monster contest build and displayed by the local hospital all made out of Legos!
We are looking forward to going back one day because it started to rain and got too cold for Liam so there’s a few rides we still have to explore!
Merlin’s Magical Wand Day out made it so that we can enjoy the sights, let Liam be a kid, and have a blast without having to worry about finances, doctor appointments and allowed us to have a great family day!"
