TODDLER TIME
TODDLER TIME
Blackpool is a wonderful playground for adults and children of all ages. Many of our attractions are deliberately designed to be ultra child-friendly. Here is a VisitBlackpool guide for parents so they can get the very best out of the resort’s attractions with their young children.
This is a wonderful day out, come rain or shine. Although the indoor waterpark has some white-knuckle chutes to captivate older children, there is plenty in store for younger children to make it a perfect family destination. Treetop Chutes is a colourful set of three small slides where parents and children can play together and little ones will love splashing about at the Caribbean Storm Treehouse. The award-winning Sandcastle prides itself on being accessible to all and it caters brilliantly for families with young children with family changing rooms, nappy changing facilities throughout the waterpark, a choice of children’s meals and a shop where you can purchase swim nappies, vests and armbands.

SANDCASTLE WATERPARK
The perfect little place for the little ones! Blackpool Model Village is a fascinating world for young children. It’s easily accessible with a buggy in tow or for toddlers who are just finding their feet. It’s a safe environment with hundreds of creative village scenes to spark children’s imaginations, ranging from a Scottish castle to a Cornish fishing village. New buildings are added every season and there is a working train running through the shopping centre of the main village. And after all that exploring, there is Anita’s, a lovely ice cream parlour where you can relax. The Model Village sits within Stanley Park, voted the UK’s best park last year. The park is a great place for a picnic with wide open spaces, play areas and a boating lake.
