My daughter (8) whines a bit until the ride starts, no matter how many times she already rode. After is starts she loves it, lol. Only exception was with Racer, that one was too high for her and really freaked her out. It ruined our chance to get her on AE because she completely freaked when she sat down. Ride op said she could not ride in that state so I waited at the exit while the others rode.
She absolutely loves BLSC and Aerial Chase, oddly enough.
