How To Be a Kid Trivia Quiz

Answer: Storybook Land Canal Boats

I recommend this ride to any kid in training to recall some of the greatest stories they heard and to rekindle their imagination. Five royal palaces - from "Aladdin", "Cinderella", "Frozen" and "The Little Mermaid" (both Erik's and Triton's) adorn the sides of the river - and they pass by slowly enough for you to dream up a story or two.

Answer: DinoLand USA

The pictured ride is Primeval Whirl, a spinning "Wild Mouse" family coaster. It uses the typical track layout of several non-banked hairpin turns followed by a few quick dips. The spinning ride vehicles add to the thrill. While you're on the ride, be sure to admire the many clocks and the cartoonish artwork!

Answer: An elephant

All of these fly at Walt Disney World, but only one of these is our beloved circus elephant Dumbo. As they say, I've seen a horse fly, I've even seen a house fly, but I've never seen... oh wait. As a true kid in training, I've not only seen an elephant fly, I've ridden it!

Answer: Raik family coaster

In this picture, you can see the two "Winja" coasters with their signature double helix element as well as the trunk of the Tittle Tattle Tree. Würmling Express is right outside that building and lets riders enjoy an aerial view of this child-friendly area (and, in 2016 and 2017, it was also popular with park enthusiasts trying to sneak a peek at the newest construction). Raik, opened in 2016, is a shuttling family coaster intertwined with the rather grown-up Taron dual launch coaster (I won't dock you any marks on your "kid in training" record if you quickly hop over and ride it as well).

Answer: Rollercoaster and Dark Ride

Opened in 2014, "Arthur" is Europa Park's first ride based on a movie. It uses the story of Luc Besson's "Arthur et les Minimoys" (released in English as "Arthur and the Invisibles") as its setting. The ride mechanism is an inverted powered coaster that includes eight animatronic scenes from the movie as well as three rollercoaster sequences - two outdoor ones and one indoor, flying over the main hall designed as the Minimoy village and hosting several smaller rides, a restaurant and a playground.

Answer: The Netherlands

The Netherlands and neighboring Belgium have a tradition of very family friendly theme parks and kids in training will certainly benefit from taking a few lessons there. Efteling opened in 1952 as a fairy tale forest, but in case you're still not weaned off those thrill rides, they added a few of those too. Just don't forget to ride some of those beautiful carousels as well - especially the historic swing carousel with half of the seats facing backwards is worth a ride.

Answer: Minions

Did the street sign give it away? This is the entrance to "Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem", a ride that will transform everyone aboard into minions (a few cleverly arranged scenes actually show the transformed audience). Make sure they don't forget you when people are turned back into humans at the end - minions don't make good kids.

(As a side note, I strongly recommend that you purchase the Express Pass if you book any lessons at Universal Orlando. Waits can exceed 60 minutes on many popular attractions and no real kid in training can stand to wait that long, right?)

Answer: Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey

I hope you channeled your inner wizard and recognized these winged porcines as guarding Hogwarts, the scene for the Forbidden Journey, a simulated flight combining real props with video projections to create an immersive experience. Even if you're an impatient kid in training, don't be all tempted by the short single rider line - you'll miss out on a grand tour of Hogwarts Castle if you do; the waiting area on this ride is an attraction itself.

Answer: SeaWorld Orlando

While you might call Aquatica, the SeaWorld Water Park, a huge playground (and I certainly recommend it for advanced training), this attraction is part of SeaWorld's Sea of Fun area featuring many rides for kids (and almost all of those are open to kids in training, too). If you feel too lost there, just pretend you're searching for your kid (which isn't even a lie: you're searching for your inner kid and getting closer every minute).

Answer: All of five feet

What you are seeing in this picture is actually about half of the Ba-a-a Express kids' coaster - the two pieces of track you see are directly connected by the lift hill. Located in the Ireland-themed children's area of the park, this attraction is a must for every honorary kid - and not only those: With it having all the features of a true roller coaster, it is listed as such and all those completist thrill-seeker aficionados have to ride it for their "coaster credit".

But you, as an honorary kid, get to actually enjoy it and have fun, so congratulations!
