Welcome to the Moms Panel Christine! We're so glad you're hEAR!
Both Blizzard Beach & Typhoon Lagoon are amazing water parks. Both offer play areas for little ones less than 48" tall.
Ketchakiddee Creek is a water play area at Typhoon Lagoon featuring 10 different activity areas including 20 different activities with fun water features and kid-sized slides.
Tike's Peak at Blizzard Beach offers younger guests less than 48 inches tall their own watery play area with a fanciful snow-castle fountain, pop-up water jets and kid-sized slides.
Of these two, I think that Ketchakiddee Creek at Typhoon Lagoon offers more hands on activities that you could enjoy together with your 2 1/2 year old.
Both parks feature awesome lazy rivers that your daughter will enjoy. Both also feature huge wave pools. A word of caution about the
Surf Pool at Typhoon Lagoon - the waves are big. They come in 90 second intervals and carry a fairly strong current even along the outer edges so be sure to watch your little one. If needed, life vests are available at no charge but guests must leave driver's license or credit card as deposit.
Wishing you minnie magical memories :-) Allison
