Actress, Mahnaz Afshar in America

Universal Studios is a big crowd pleaser for all ages – it’s exciting to be in Hollywood and see the setting for some of your favourite programmes on the studio tour. Plus there are rides and shows for every age, ranging from fun animal actor performances to the thrill-seeking Revenge of the Mummy rollercoaster.

And that’s not even to mention the incredible Wizarding World of Harry Potter. See my guide to visiting Universal Studio with a toddler. It’s a clear must-do when it comes to things to do in California for kids. We recommend getting an express ticket to save time.
