Our Visit to Day Out With Thomas (Peninsula, Ohio)

Day Out with Thomas:  The Go Go Thomas Tour 2013 in Peninsula, Ohio

This past weekend we spent the day with Thomas the Train during the Day Out with Thomas:  The Go Go Thomas Tour 2013 in Peninsula, Ohio.  Since this was the first time that we attended, I didn’t know what to expect but man, did we have a blast!

Our littlest, Jackson, was so excited to ride on the real Thomas train that he’s been talking about it for weeks.  I found the approximate 30 minute train ride was the perfect length of time for my kiddos while still allowing time for sightseeing, ticket stamping and picture taking.

1
Once the train ride was over there was still so much to see!  We headed to the model train area to see the huge table set up with many trains.  My boys were mesmerized to see these trains up so close.  Right outside this covered area we were able to meet  Sir Topham Hatt™, the Controller of the Railway.  It was so fun to see one of our favorite characters come to life.

While my two youngest were enjoying the bounce houses over and over again, my oldest son and husband were able to sit under covered tent and enjoy a magic show from Marty the Magician and dance along to music by Zobapago.

1

Before leaving we were able to grab some temporary tattoos, play with train tables, hear a Thomas the Train story and much more.  In fact there was so much to do that we weren’t able to fit it all in before nap time.  To help you manage your time, you are encouraged to arrive at least an hour before you train ride.

Since Day Out with Thomas:  The Go Go Thomas Tour 2013 in Peninsula, Ohio will still be in town next weekend, you’ll want to grab your tickets NOW!

Cedar Point Season Passes – Frugal Fun All Season Long!

May 15, 2013 by racheljk 5 Comments

On Saturday, May 11th, our family headed out to Opening Day at Cedar Point!  It was a chilly day but that didn’t damper our spirits at all.  After a long cold winter we were ready to start our summer early at Cedar Point!  We were beyond excited to be there!!

If you would like to visit, be sure to enter to WIN a 4-pack of tickets to Cedar Point! (giveaway over)

We are lucky to live within 30 minutes of Cedar Point and so we grab season passes every year.  If you are local to this area, I think Cedar Point passes are an awesome deal.  Here’s why.

When you get a regular Cedar Point pass you’ll get unlimited visits to Cedar Point from May 11th all the way to October 27th.  Since Cedar Point has over 150 rides, shows and attractions there is a little something for everyone.   Once you’ve made only three trips to Cedar Point, your pass is paid for.

1

Your season pass even include admission to the ever popular HalloWeekends that start in September.  During HallowWeekends, Cedar Point transforms into family-friendly spooky entertainment by day and a little scarier at night.  Don’t worry, even if you have young kids you can still visit at night.

Cedar Point makes getting a season pass affordable for ALL!

Through May 27th you can get your 2013 Regular Season Pass for as low as six easy payments of only $18.50.  With the payment plan, Cedar Point is making it accessible for all!

1

If you are looking for an even BETTER savings you may want to look into the Cedar Point Platinum Season Pass.  These are the type of passes my family gets each year because of all the awesome perks.  With a Platinum Pass you’ll be able to get:

FREE Parking– Parking at Cedar Point will cost you $15 a pop each time you visit UNLESS you have the Platinum Pass.  You know how I love FREE, so this perk is fabulous!

Early Entry – Enter the park 1-hour before the general public.  This special access will give you a head start on your day and even give your early entry to the rides, GateKeeper, WindSeeker, Millennium Force, Raptor, Maverick, Iron Dragon, Ocean Motion, Midway Carousel and Planet Snoopy.

Exclusive Ride Nights– Several times during the season,Platinum Passholders are invited stay after closing to enjoy exclusive rides on some of their most popular coasters

Fabulous Discounts– We all love coupons and with a Platinum Pass you’ll score some great money-saving offers on food, merchandise, games and resort stays.  To find the perks, Click Here and then click “2013 Platinum Pass Perks”.  Here are only a few:

  • VIP Show seating at some shows
  • Hotel deals
  • BOGO FREE $2 Games
  • BOGO FREE rides on Skyscraper, Challenge Racing, Challenge Golf

Admission to Cedar Point, Soak City & all Cedar Fair Parks– With a Platinum Pass not only will you get unlimited admission to Cedar Point and Soak City, but you’ll also snag FREE admission to any other Cedar Fair park!  This will save you a ton of money if you plan a family vacation!  Simply head to any of the Cedar Fair parks and your entertainment will be FREE!

A Cedar Point Platinum Pass is only a little more but is completely worth the extra money.  Now through May 27th you can get a Platinum Pass for as low as 6 payments of $29.99.  With all that’s included above, I think it’s a steal of a deal!

So have fun all the way into the fall and grab a Cedar Point Season Pass!  I hope to see you at the Cedar Point!

 

Disclaimer:  This is not a paid post.  All opinions are my own.  Cedar Point offered me free Opening Day tickets to share about my experiences.

Would you dare give someone a thrifted gift? 👀 👇👇 Would you dare give someone a thrifted gift? 👀  👇👇👇  Hear me out...  I needed a housewarming gift for a friend who just moved into a new home, so I headed to @voathrift, instead of a big box store. I walked out with a basket full of adorable finds! 🏡🛍️  The best part? Several of the items were brand new! From cute home décor to kitchen goodies, I found thoughtful gifts for a fraction of what I would have spent buying everything new.

Through July 5, @Hallmark is offering Buy One, Get One 50% Off greeting cards at @HallmarkStores and Hallmark.com.

We loved SUPERGIRL! It was packed with action, heart, humor, and plenty of superhero moments that kept us entertained the entire time. Kara is a relatable hero who is still figuring out where she belongs. The movie does a great job balancing exciting action scenes with meaningful friendships and family connections, making it a fun watch for both kids and adults.  🍿 SUPERGIRL FLIES into theaters June 26! If you're looking for a fun summer blockbuster with lots of heart, this one is definitely worth seeing.  #Supergirl #PhoenixTheatres #MovieNight #DCStudios #SummerMovies
