2016 Kid's Guide to Six Flags Great America
By: Jonathan Jones 05/16/2016
Like adults, the young whipper snappers 
have their own 2016 kid's guide to Six Flags Great America.
What's better than your little tike uncontrollably laughing when zipping by in the Whizzer or Little Dipper. Maybe they've finally graduated in height enabling them to be tall enough to take the Goliath challenge.
It could be that you're trying to conquer your fear of coasters, which have your children ultimately saying - 'Why was I so scared anyway, this is the best!'
Whatever it may be, come help celebrate, as the JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis ride will be unveiled to the world on Memorial Day Weekend.
JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis is an interactive 4D thrill ride that has been voted "Best New Product" by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions!
This fantastic thrill ride was named by USA Today readers as one of the Top Ten New Amusement Park Attractions of the year and awarded Best New Attraction by Theme Park Insider. This is a can't miss thrill ride to add to your list when you visit the park!

The Details 
- Prices for kids vary based on height. Because kids 48″ and under can’t ride every ride, their entry is cheaper. (See Price Details Here)
- While there are plenty of rides that do not have a height restriction, Great America’s more exciting rides often come with a height minimum to help keep kids safe. Here are just a few popular rides and the height restrictions to keep in mind while planning your day at the park!
