My Top 4 Tips for Saving Money at Legoland

How to Save Money at Legoland

Our family just returned home from vacationing in Florida. Since so many of our kids are so crazy about Legos, we squeezed in a visit to Legoland while we were there. With a little advanced planning, we were able to go without breaking the bank.

Top 4 Money-Saving Tips for Legoland:

How to Save Money at Legoland

1. Go on Homeschool Day

Tickets to Legoland Florida are already about 10%-20% less expensive that many of the major theme parks in nearby Orlando, but if you happen to homeschool, you can save a bundle by visiting on designated “Homeschool Days.” Check the dates, then call the park to reserve your tickets two days in advance. The savings is significant: We paid $12.50 for tickets that would normally have cost us $89. You’ll need to show proof of homeschooling and a picture ID when you pick up your tickets on the day of your visit (our HSLDA membership card worked beautifully for us).

Legoland California also hosts homeschool days, but their rules and pricing are a little different. If you’re heading to the other coast, follow this link for information: Legoland California Homeschool Field Trip

How to Save Money at Legoland

Don’t homeschool? Then your best bet for saving on admission is to order your child(ren) a free subscription to Lego Club Magazine. Several times a year, they publish coupons for a free child’s ticket to Legoland with the purchase of an adult ticket.

How to Save Money at Legoland

You’ll need one coupon per adult/child pair. Legoland classifies ages 13 and up as adults (unless you are paying for student pricing on Homeschool Day, in which case children ages 3-18 get in for the same low price!).

2. Bring Your Own Food

Legoland Florida allows you to bring bottled water and small snacks into the park with you (for lists of acceptable/prohibited items, follow this link: Legoland FAQs). We loaded our stroller with water bottles, chips, nuts, and granola bars and the kids took turns pushing it around the park.

It has been awhile since we’ve had a baby, so getting to push the stroller was a novel privilege, not a chore. We had to keep an eye on the clock to ensure the youngest three got equal time doing it! 🙂

3. Bring Minifigures from Home

We didn’t know about this one in advance, but are making note of it for next time: Legoland Florida has a special kiosk where kids can trade their old minifigures in for new ones at no charge. If you have duplicate figures at home, this would be a great way to bring home a souvenir without spending any money on it. They had a wonderful variety of minifigures to choose from, including sailors, princesses, knights, muscle men, police officers, etc.

4. Stay On Site

If you stay in the Legoland Resort, you’ll save an additional $17-$22 per day parking.

The resort serves free breakfast, offers extended hours to the park, and provides nightly entertainment for the kids. We stayed in Orlando and just drove in for one day at Legoland, but it would be worth doing a little comparison shopping to see if staying in the park might be cheaper in the long run.

Those are my best tips on saving a bundle at Legoland. If you know any other money saving tips, please share in the comments below.

Our family is already planning a return trip next year, primarily because Homeschool Day was such a bomb — no crowds, short lines, friendly faces. Most of the rides had no line at all; the operators would just let us keep our seats and go around again and again. We had a wonderful time, youngest to oldest, and highly recommend Legoland to Lego fans everywhere.

Animal Farm. If you look closely enough, you can s Animal Farm. If you look closely enough, you can see Old Major in the barn addressing Boxer, Clover, Benjamin, Muriel, Jessie, Bluebell, Snowball, Squealer, Napoleon, and all the others. Abby arranged this scene  herself — proof that she was paying close attention when I read George Orwell’s classic aloud to my kids last week.  It has been more than 75 years since Orwell first penned this political fable, yet it remains as relevant today as ever. Wish our elected officials who seem so inexplicably enamored with Socialism would take time to read and ponder its message.  #fourlegsgood #twolegsbetter #flandersfamilyreads

I’m a list-maker by nature, and I’ve tried to I’m a list-maker by nature, and I’ve tried to teach my kids the value of making lists, as well.  For instance, sometimes when they’ve continued to squabble or butt heads even after I’ve called them down, I’ll send them to opposite corners of the house with a list-making assignment:  ✅ “Describe 3 better ways you could’ve responded in that situation than the one you chose.”  ✅ “Write down 5 things you love and appreciate about your sister. “  ✅ “List 10 ways you could show kindness to your brother. “  With that last one, I’d follow up by telling them to choose a different idea off their list every day for the next 10 days and do it.  Gradually, over time, those kind, loving deeds became their default behavior. And as a bonus, the kids not only learned to be kind to one another, but showed similar courtesies to friends, other family members, and strangers, alike.  Want to be more loving to the people God has placed in your life? Brainstorm ways to show kindness to them. Because love is kind.  #happyvalentinesday #bekind

What does patient love look like? It takes time to What does patient love look like? It takes time to listen. It doesn’t tap its toes, drum its  fingers, check its watch, or roll its eyes.  It doesn’t act irritated or annoyed when the object of its love needs time or attention. Patient love is selfless and long suffering — just as God is with us.  As Christians, this is the kind of love God calls us to demonstrate to our spouse, our children, our neighbors, and even our enemies — a constant, unruffled love that bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. A love that would be quite impossible apart from the endless grace and indwelling power of God.  #goals #radicallove

Jesus bids us, “ Continue in my love.” (John 1 Jesus bids us, “ Continue in my love.” (John 15:9) And what exactly does Christ’s kind of love look like?  He sums it up for us in Luke 6:27-28: “Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who despitefully use you.”  The good news is, we don’t have to look far for an opportunity to put this command into practice. Nor must we do any of this in our own strength.  God’s empowering grace enables us to forgive offenders, to extend kindness in response to rudeness, to show mercy to the unmerciful, and to point  unbelievers to a Savor who sees them, knows them, and loves them enough to die for them.  #jesuslovesme #thisiknow #forthebibletellsmeso
