There are 2 ride in this area. Kang and Kodos’ twirl ‘n’ hurl is one of very few rides in the parks that does not have a height requirement so little ones can ride. Similar to the 1 fish, 2 fish ride in Seuss landing guests can control moving the saucer up and down.
The Simpsons ride does have a height requirement of 40″. This motion simulated ride puts you right into the show with the famous Simpson characters. This ride is a really fun concept but is not for riders who get motion sick. Near the entrance to the ride there are also multiple carnival type games that will cost extra to play.
