The 12 Tips You Need to Know Before Booking Your Next Universal Orlando Family Vacation

If your kids don't quite meet the height requirements for Universal's more thrill-inducing attractions, many of them offer child swap rooms. Your entire party will enter the queue together and, while part of your group is on the ride, the others can wait in the Child Swap room. Most of these rooms are even outfitted with televisions showing the movies that inspired the ride. When the first group finishes up, you can switch so the rest of those who are tall enough can ride without having to wait in line a second time.

Most of these rides also have a rule against bags and loose items, too, so you'll have to pass off your items to someone who is waiting or toss everything in one of the provided lockers before getting in line.
