Visiting amusement parks is a popular summertime activity. Parking, the lines, the heat and crowds will test even the most well-mannered family.
Before you visit the amusement park, review some basic etiquette guidelines. Following these guidelines will help your family have a memorable, adventurous and safe time.
Dress Appropriately-
Remember you are in public. Families are present. Don't dress for the club or the garden. Don't show too much skin.
Be Respectful-
Amusement parks are a microcosm of the world. Many nationalities, races, age groups and genders visit the park. There may be people with disabilities. Pointing, staring or making comments is disrespectful.
Wait Patiently-
No one wants to stand on line. However, waiting is an amusement park ritual. Jumping line or complaining incessantly spoils it for everyone. Patience is truly a virtue at the amusement park.
Say Excuse Me-
It is virtually impossible not to step in front of someone, step on a foot or inadvertently bump in passing. Saying excuse me often and without prompting will derail any unattended offense.
Safety-
Amusement parks have safety guidelines for good reason. Follow the rules, whatever they may be. The safety of the guests is of the upmost importance.
