Bugs Bunny World at Magic Mountain--a children's wonderlandIn the slide show above, you're viewing pictures of Bugs Bunny World at Six Flags Magic Mountain! Bugs Bunny World is the "kiddieland" area of the theme park, full of rides and attractions that children---AND their families---will enjoy. You can see pictures of Looney Tunes-themed rides; the Canyon Blaster junior roller coaster; and the Carrot Club Theater (which features an trained bird show that visitors of all ages will enjoy.) On this page, you can see more pictures of Bugs Bunny World & find out about the different children's rides and family attractions you may expect to enjoy there on your next visit to Six Flags Magic Mountain in California. Enter Bugs Bunny's World through a giant sequoia tree!
The tree in this photo is the General Sam Tree (named after the Looney Tune character, Yosemite Sam, of course!), and it's the world's tallest man-made tree! Standing 140 feet tall, you can't miss it as you stroll through High Sierra Territory.
Costumed Looney Tunes characters, too!Sometimes at Bugs Bunny World, you'll also get a chance to meet 'n greet the "real" Looney Tunes characters themselves. Appearances are scheduled at intervals throughout the day; you never know which Looney Tunes character will show up! If you like character greetings, another good place to find the Looney Tunes characters is in Six Flags Plaza, the "land" you'll enter after you pass through the theme park's turnstiles. Various Looney Tunes characters appear in Six Flags Plaza throughout the day. You're welcome to take snapshots with them free of charge. Or, you may use Magic Mountain's own photographer...for which you're only charged if you purchase some of the prints. Thomas the Tank Engine coming to Magic Mountain!Thomas Town opens in Summer 2008!
Thomas Town is coming to Magic Mountain in Summer 2008! Thomas Town will be carved out of Bugs Bunny World and will bring several rides and attractions that will feature Thomas and his friends. Though small, the Thomas Town area will be cute and well-themed; a nice addition for anyone who has kids who love Thomas the train. Buggs Bunny World rides and attractionsCute Looney Tunes kiddie rides set the stage for family fun!
Here's a photo of the Looney Tunes fountain, one example of the whimsical way that the Looney Tunes character theme is woven into the rides and structures within Bugs Bunny World at Magic Mountain.So, what are some of the rides your child can enjoy here? Well, there's the Merrie Melodies Carousel, a miniature version of this popular type of ride. In fact, it's so small that only children 54" and UNDER can ride it! The Pepe LePew's Tea Party ride (named after the love-sick Looney Tunes skunk, remember him?), is a traditional spinning-cup ride. Good news-- parents CAN go on this attraction with their children. In fact, it's a good idea. Without some muscle-power, it's hard to get those cups spinning around very fast! This darling ride winds through beautiful shady trees. It putters along at a slower pace, giving the small fry who weren't tall enough to drive back at Granny's Grand Prix (in High Sierra Territory) their turn at the wheel. As at Granny's Grand Prix, the truck stays on a track, making it error-free. Unlike Granny's, the ride is made strictly for the younger set, and parents wait behind at the gate. So, what are some other rides in Bugs Bunny World at Magic Mountain? Well, there's "Daffy's Adventure Tours," a small bus that rises up into the air and comes back down again, gently circling a central point. First, the bus makes a few forward revolutions, and then it circles into the air backwards a few times. (You may have seen this mini-bus ride at other parks--it's not unique to 6 Flags. Knott's Berry Farm, for one, has a bus ride just like this.) ...and that's Yosemite Sam's Flight School. Once again, the children twirl around a central hub, but this time they use their own control sticks to fly high or fly low. The Tweety's Escape ride mimics the looks of Tweety's Bird Cage, with which we're all so familiar. He thinks he sees a "putty tat," so away he flys, cage and all! And THAT is the end of the twirly rides in Bugs Bunny World at Magic Mountain! Next, there's Foghorn Leghorn's Barn and Railway...which are just what they sound like. You can actually enjoy a small petting zoo, right here at Magic Mountain! Come in so your kids can watch ducks waddle by, and give them a chance to pet goats and other farm animals. You can't feed the animals here, just pet them or brush them. As a result, the animals are tame and docile; even a toddler can enjoy them! Still more Looney Tunes rides!
...Sylvester's Pounce and Bounce ride! This ride gently lifts the kiddies up into the air, then bounce, bounce, bounces them several times before bringing them back down for a safe landing.
Next, we'll talk about an attraction in Bugs Bunny World at Magic Mountain that dishes up a little "thrill factor" even for the adults accompanying their children. That's Yosemite Sam's Sierra Falls Water Slide. (What a mouthful!) There are 2 slides here, both of which involve a bit of a climb to reach the top...but, give you some "zoom" on the way down! Now, this is a water slide in the full sense of the word. Most of the time, you'd find this type of attraction at a WATER park...so, you're gonna get wet! But, the kids will LOVE this, so just plan it for the sunny part of the day & you'll dry off in no time. There's yet another ride in Bugs Bunny World at Magic Mountain that might give parents a little thrill as they ride with their kids...and that's the Canyon Blaster roller coaster. This is a small roller coaster meant for families to enjoy all-together. The Goliath Junior roller coaster has closed. But don't feel sad; it's now going to be part of the Thomas Town rides! The Goliath track wasn't scrapped. Its position was changed and it was re-themed to create a new mini-section of the park which is all about Thomas the Tank Engine! Carrot Club Theater FunKid Karoke---come join the fun!
Parrots, macaws and other beautiful birds did tricks. The audience--both the kids AND the adults--usually leaves saying, "Awww...wasn't that cute!" For those of you who enjoyed the bird show, you can see some pictures of the "Just Wingin' It" show in the slide show at the top of the page. New Carrot Club Show for 2008! A Kid's Karaoke show gets the audience involved! Parents will grin as their children become the stars of the show! To get in on the action, head to the Carrot Club Theater between 1:15 and 5 pm every day. This attraction will run from May 24th thru September 1st (Labor Day.)
I hope you don't have to leave at the end of this page. But, if you do, remember that YOUR KIDS want you to "bookmark" me. They can't wait for you to take them on vacation!
