| There is so much to see and do for kids at Wonderland. There are two huge kids areas. In Hanna-Barbera Land there are attractions themed to classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons like the Flintstones, Jetsons and Scooby-Doo. There are about 10 rides in this kiddie area. New for 2000 in Hanna-Barbera Land was Scooby-Doo's Haunted Mansion. This is an interactive dark ride for kids up to 60" tall. You ride around in a car and zap ghosts with your ghost zappers and collect scooby-snacks (points). Other rides in Hanna-Barbera Land include: Hanna-Barberry-Go-Round (carousel), Boulder Bumpers (bumper cars), Flintstone Flyboys (up, up and away balloons) and Ghoster Coaster (junior wooden coaster). Another kiddie area is KidZville. This area was new for 1998. KidZville's attractions are themed to candy and good old kids fun. There are about a dozen rides in this kiddie area. The rides in KidZville include: The Candy Factory (kids playground), Chopper Chase (helicopter monerail), A-Mazing Adventure (maze) and Taxi Jam (kids steel coaster). There are many rides that kids and adults can ride together in both areas. And the last kiddie area, Zoom Zone, which was new for 2001, is located in Kidzville and features three new attractions for kids: Silver Streak, a Vekoma suspended junior roller coaster, the only one in the world featuring a helix, Blast off, a minature version of Drop Zone, and Jumpin Jet, a crazy bus type ride.
