Dutch Wonderland and/or Hershey for 2yo and 4yo?

We are planning a PA trip for June.

Which do you think is better for a 2yo and 4yo - Dutch Wonderland or Hershey? Or both?

We prefer to not take time off for this trip and go Fri night-Sun night only.

It takes us about 3 hours to drive to Dutch Wonderland so we could always go another weekend.

DH is less than impressed with DW though. He thought it was run down and not great. I wasn't particularly impressed with any shows or rides but our toddler had fun when we went. DH says our toddler would have fun anywhere.

I am doing the Sam e trip. We wil go Friday and do the preview at night and get most of it done at dw. Ten go in the morning and finish up by lunch. Then take the ride over to Hershey park for the rest of the day. Ten wake up and go to Hershey again the next day and head home that day.

Re: Dutch Wonderland and/or Hershey for 2yo and 4yo?

i would do either or...You can do DW in 1 day...but i could have easily done 3 days at hershey...we did 2 days and stopped by chocolate world on the 3rd morning before our drive home and I would have liked to stay there longer!

We did wet rides 1 day, dry rides the next day! But I am also the type of person that likes to do everything at a park!

We went last summer with DD who was 3 1/2

I loved DW- it was smaller, less crowded, more kid friendly ( they had tiny potties and sinks in the bathrooms!)

DD said she loved Hershey because "the rides were faster".

You could totally do either. We might just do Sesame Place this year and wait for next summer with DS to go to DW or Hershey

We are doing DW. Driving there on friday afternoon. Staying over. Doing the park on saturday and then heading home in the afternoon. It's small enough to do in 1 day.
