Creator's Key Takeaways

Universal Kids Resort is located in Frisco, Texas, and is suggested for ages 3 to eight, where you'll find lands dedicated to Trolls, Shrek, Minions, Spongebob, Jurassic World, Huss and Boots

I think this park did a great job catering to children and families. Yes, there are some walls that aren't painted nice and maybe the Shrek ride was a miss, but the majority of everything here is so great

And this is a real game changer, and even a diaper dispenser. They really think ahead cuz even in guest services while you're talking to someone they have a little kids play area

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Bring micellar water if you plan on doing the Trollification makeup experience.

✓Book the Trollify Me experience in advance via the Universal app.

✓Use the built-in kids' toilet seats and nursing rooms located in Family Service areas.

YouTube Video Description↓

Universal Orlando is an amazing vacation, but did you know there are only 10 rides across all three Orlando parks for kids under 40 inches? That is exactly why Universal built the brand new Universal Kids Resort! Designed specifically for ages 3 to 8, this smaller, regional theme park is built to make parents' lives easier without the need for months of intense research. I'm taking you land-by-land through Minions Bello Bay, SpongeBob's Bikini Bottom, Jurassic World Adventure Camp, Puss in Boots Del Mar, Shrek's Swamp, and TrollsFest to give you my completely honest, boots-on-the-ground review. We check out the controversial Shrek ride, get a full "Trollify Me" makeover, and explore the game-changing parent amenities (including built-in kids' toilet seats, quiet rooms, and adult changing tables!). If your kids love Trolls, Minions, or Jurassic Park, and you want them to be able to ride more than two rides in a park—you need to watch this before you book your trip to Texas!
