A few days ago my family and I stopped by Knott’s Berry Farm in Anaheim, CA. They are celebrating their Twogether is Better Event throughout the month of February and they invited us to check it out. It was our first visit, and I’ll tell you now, it won’t be the last. We had a great time.
For those of you who may not be familiar with Knott’s Berry Farm, it is a Southern Californian amusement park with a homey, western spirit, complete with real stagecoaches, trains, western stunt shows, panning for gold, Native dancers, a wonderful place called Camp Snoopy, and much, much more.
My sons’ favorite area of the park was Camp Snoopy (they are ages 4 & 7), where, in addition to seeing Charlie Brown and his friends and watching February’s Special show called, “Love is in the Air, Charlie Brown,” the rides are designed for smaller children. Red Baron, which they rode six times, and Charlie Brown’s Speedway were two favorites, but there are many more they enjoyed.
But don’t think there are only rides for the little ones, there are also spectacular roller coasters and other attractions like:
And trains
with robbers
and stagecoach rides
Something I really enjoyed were the many different shows offered at different hours throughout the day. When you enter the park I recommend asking for their list of shows in order to get the times, places, and descriptions of each to help plan your day. We were able to see almost all the shows and we enjoyed them all. We enjoyed the Wild West Stunt Show, which we saw twice, and the Native American Dancers, where they performed Aztec dances, most. But again we enjoyed all the shows.
Here are some of the Twogether is Better events:

Do you recommend bringing a stroller or wagon for the little ones, my children are ages 5 & 7? This will be our first time visiting an amusement park and we are all excited!!
A stroller is a good idea for your 5 year old 🙂
What a colorful park, Silvia. My friends have gone there last summer and we really had a good time. My family and I are going to Disney for a vacation and I would love to bring them there. I am sure we will all enjoy the rides, the sceneries, the shows and all that they can offer. While reading your blog, I feel like I am riding the stagecoach already. I will surely get the list of the shows because I do not want to miss any of their shows. Just can’t wait for this fun adventure. Thanks for the wonderful photos and the tips.
María thanks for you comments, Knott´s Berry Farms is just 15 minutes away from Disneyland, so you can easily visit both parks on your trip. I hope you had a wonderful time and let me know if you need more info.
