CANADA’S WONDERLAND

It’s no surprise that the nation’s largest amusement park has plenty of fun things to do with kids,
including screaming-fast roller coasters, wet-and-wild exuberance at SplashWorks water park,
and a display of 40 life-size animatronic beasts at “Dinosaurs Alive!” Younger kids don’t miss
out either, as there are plenty of carousels, mini-trains and tame rides. Before heading to the
site just north of Toronto, parents should note that most rides have a height requirement of at
least 112 cenitmetres (44 inches) and that the park is open from May to October.

MEDIEVAL TIMES
A display of pageantry like nothing else Toronto has to offer, Medieval Times encourages young
and old to discover their inner knight during a night of feasting and festivities. Dine as they did in
11th-century Spain while you cheer knights on horseback who joust right before your eyes.
