There are so many changes in our world as we knew it but places we've known and love are trying their hardest to be there for us. Theme parks have (for the most part) opened up for the summer season, and are doing their best to offer families a sense of normalcy in this "new normal". Recently, my family and I visited Sesame Place in Langhorne, PA and while there were certainly differences in our experience, our favorite furry monsters were there for us none the less! See what precautions were taken, what changes were made and most importantly, if I felt safe during our visit to Sesame Place.

I remember visiting the Crayola Experience in Easton, PA with my Girl Scout troop. It was certainly a memorable trip! Recently, Crayola Experience announced Virtual Camp trips that include hands-on fun and 3 hours of go-at-your-own-pace activities.

2020 is a big year for Sesame Place, located in Langhorne, PA, this year marks the 40th birthday for Sesame Place. Big plans were announced prior to the unforeseen circumstances that have taken over the first half of 2020. Instead of opening back in spring, Sesame Place has remained closed throughout most of the summer season. Last week it was announced that the home of Elmo, Big Bird and the other lovable, furry monsters would open on Friday, July 24th!
Where are my Peanuts Gang fans at? Did you know you can find Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy and more inside Kings Island located in Mason, Ohio? Planet Snoopy is an entire land dedicated to those 48 inches and shorter. Over 15 rides made for kids or kids and a guardian plus there is a petting zoo inside Planet Snoopy that is home to over 50 animals! No wonder Planet Snoopy has been voted "Best Kids' Area in the World" 18 times!
In 2019, Hersheypark unveiled plans for their "tallest, fastest and longest" rollercoaster, Candymonium as part of their 150 million dollar expansion titled "Chocolate Town".

And yes, there will be Candymonium! Learn more about this brand new coaster and see what else is new at Hersheypark for 2020.
In the wake of stay at home orders, theme parks have had to close their doors (or keep them closed if they were meant to open soon) and that has left all of their season pass holders confused on what it means for their lost time and money. As closures have been extended many theme parks have announced their plans for their season pass holders and what it means for this shortened 2020 season. Here are the policies for Disney, Universal, Hershey Park, SeaWorld and Busch Gardens, Sesame Place, and Six Flags.
PJ Masks airs in the US on Disney Junior. It is also available on Disney's streaming service, Disney+ yet you won't find the PJ wearing heroes at Walt Disney World or Disneyland. This is not for lack of Disney Junior representation, Doc Mcstuffins, Fancy Nancy and Vampirina can all be found in both Florida and California so where are the PJ Masks heroes? You have to be very strategically located. These heroes don't take a lot of days off and their 2020 schedule is pretty light (thus far).
