You’ll feel the Peanuts magic as soon as you arrive at this Southern California amusement park that goes all out for the boysenberry. Just inside the park’s gates is Camp Snoopy, an area devoted to the 12-and-under crowd with rides like Woodstock’s Airmail and Charlie Brown’s Kite Flyer. Opening in 1983, this Camp Snoopy outpost was the first of its kind and continues to charm visitors decades later. Be sure to get a photo with the Peanuts gang to document your day!
