Rides

  • Storybook Land rides are all family rides and are suitable for children and adults. All rides have height restrictions and/or limitations. Be sure to check posted height and safety restrictions at each attraction. Ride and attraction requirements are determined by ride dynamics, the restraint system used, recommendations made by the manufacturer, and by the State of New Jersey Department of Community Affairs. Ride information and restrictions are posted at each location. Please supervise children at all times. Ride guidelines and height requirements are subject to change without notice.
  • The New Jersey State Ride Safety Act requires Storybook Land to post same and laws are strictly enforced. Some rides may not be for everyone. Those with heart or back problems, recent surgery, or pregnancy should exercise caution. Although we will try to accommodate riders with special needs, some rides may not be appropriate for everyone. Persons with special needs must have their own helper.
  • In the event of inclement weather or mechanical difficulty, rides may close.
  • Shirts and shoes must be worn on all rides, no bathing suits, please. No food or drinks on rides. (Loose shoes such as Flip-Flops must be removed for Tick-Tock Clock Drop and Beanstalk Bounce.)
  • The proper protocol for measuring height is as follows:
    - Stand straight, with feet flat, heels and back against the measuring board.
    - Keep head straight, chin down.
    - Measure to the top of the head, not hair.
    - Top of the head must be touching proper height on the measuring board and/or height stick.
    - All measurements are non-negotiable.
    - Patrons wearing shoes with soles higher than 3 inches must remove shoes when being measured. Please understand that height restrictions are in place due to the requirements and recommendations by the Ride Manufacturer and the New Jersey State Department of Community Affairs.

Unlimited Ride Advisory

Storybook Land rides are unlimited; however, common sense must prevail. Riders must exit the ride and re-enter, if others are in line to ride. If nobody in waiting in line to ride, we suggest and enforce no more than three (3) consecutive rides at one time. You are welcome to come back after at least a 10 minute break. Continuous, repeated riding without rest time in between is not in the best health or safety interests of either children or adults. The privilege of unlimited rides cannot be abused. Children must be in the company of parents or chaperones at all times. Ride attendants will enforce these polices.
