Universal Studios Hollywood Description
It wouldn't be a trip to L.A. if your family didn't get a little taste of Hollywood magic. Every attraction at Universal Studios is related to a movie or TV show; these days the favorite with teens is "Fear Factor," where audience members are selected to try their hand at risky ventures (and to eat gross things). Kids that thrive on scary stuff will love the Revenge of the Mummy indoor rollercoaster and Backdraft, a fiery pyrotechnics show based on the movie of the same name. There are, though, some tamer attractions for younger kids, including the studio tour (Hello, King Kong!), animal actors attraction, and a cartoon-themed playground.

Kid Tips
Toddlers & Pre-K: Some attractions might be a little over-the-top for them.
School-Age Kids: If your kids like action movies then they'll like the attractions here, but if they're not ready for all those explosions, you can just stick to the quieter attractions like Nickelodeon Blast Zone.
Pre-Teens & Teens: They'll love the scarier rides, and make sure to stop by the suped-up City Walk, one of LA's most popular pedestrian malls.
Planning Notes
- Spend the dough. Consider buying a ''head-of-the-line'' pass. The park can get really crowded and the lines can be long.
- Leave the prom dress at home. Wear clothes you don't mind getting wet, since a lot of the rides involve water.
- There are plenty of food options. The park has no shortage of fast food places in the park to eat (some serving relatively healthy food), but you might also want to try Just the Facts
Hours: Schedule varies depending on season; check the website.
Fees: Over $40
Recommended Time: Full day
