PA-1st time Hershey park w/kids
 
Going to Hershey park for 1st time w/4 & 7 year old in mid-august, do you think 2 day pass is needed. Also is Dutch Wonderland worth it

There are 45 great kid-friendly rides for those age levels at Hershey Park. We went there six years ago so I don't remember going there very much--I was only 9 when we went. At Dutch Wonderland, which I've never been to, there are 30 rides which are all mostly kid-friendly. So, I'm not sure if it's worth your money or not because I've never been there.

Dear Chumley,
Hi! You could totally do Hershey Park in one day. Note that in my opinion HP is fun for the whole family while Dutch Wonderland is super geared towards young children. Have a great trip!!

1 day in Hershey should be more than enough. I never like to buy 2 day passes because what happens if you get a rainy 2nd day? You're stuck!

Been to Hershey twice. I agree with one day pass. We have always made a brief visit to Chocolate World and then the park. Your kids will love it at their ages.
