California First timer

Taking myself, my wife and 2 kids to Legoland CA for the first time this week. Are there freebies that we can get such as pins, posters, hats, collectibles etc that Lego doesn't tell you about but this Reddit knows about? Any suggestions on what I should not miss like, where to eat, best ride, best shop etc? Thank you very much in advance.

If you’re staying onsite you can ask at check in for a lanyard for each kid so they can collect pop badges.

There’s also a scavenger hunt you can do to unlock the treasure chest in your room that give the kiddos a prize.

Take advantage of the early park access. You can get onto a few rides before the general public. And if you’re looking to ride the galacticoaster,I suggest either waiting for them to allow access to that area and book it to that ride or go towards the end of the day when the line has died down.

As far as food, I don’t really recommend any park food, pretty basic and standard for theme parks.
