We love Alton Towers and have been visiting for as long as I can remember. Its a very special place for us, we visit several times throughout the year but there are certain dates we never miss.
Screamfest is amazing and if you have never been you should definitely plan a trip. It usually runs for a couple of weeks leading up to Halloween. Then the fireworks is the week after. I have never seen a fireworks display as big as the ones in Alton Towers. This is special for us because Daddy proposed to me while we watched the Fireworks a long time ago :)
Then their is Santas Sleepover in the Hotel. We have been going for years and its so special for the children. We usually visit for Big J's birthday too and you can read about that here.
So when CBeebies land was announced we did get excited because now we have little J and he will be able to enjoy Alton towers as much as we do.
When we arrived it was really colourful, fresh and new and very appealing to the youngsters.
It has its own section in Alton Towers which you have to enter by walking through two trees.
There is a map when you enter showing you all the rides and attractions. It was very busy so we decided to have a look around first.
The first thing we saw was Something Special Sensory Garden. Its a walk through garden area with two TV's showing Justin singing and welcoming you to the garden.
The Sensory garden has lots to touch, feel and smell. Their are musical instruments such as drums and also mirrors too. Both big and little J enjoyed the garden and I'm looking forward to taking little J back when he is walking.
Next we went on the In the Night Garden Boat ride.
The ride takes you on a journey so you can see all your favourite In the Night Garden Characters.
Little J really enjoyed the ride and we were planning to go on again but the queue was almost a hour long so maybe next time.
After the boat ride we managed to meet Iggle Piggle. There is a large arena section and there are little tents and Iggle Piggle was there.
Little J was really excited and got lots of cuddles. Big J did too.
Nina's Science LAB is an indoor attraction is aimed at children older than little J but big J enjoyed it.
There are lots of hands on things to do inside.
There was no queue for the number go round so we went on this next.
Little J enjoyed sitting on the car as it went round. He cried when we got off so we had to go on a few times.
Last but not least we went on Postman Pat ride
Little J and big J drove Postman Pats van around Greendale.
There are lots more activities and attractions to visit once inside CBeebies Land but little J fell asleep so we went off around Alton Towers to go on some bigger rides.
I am looking forward to returning once its been open a little longer and hopefully queues will have calmed by then.
