Got a preschooler? A big Elmo or Abby Cadabby fan? Start planning your trip to Busch Gardens in Tampa now.
This year, kids 5 and younger (Florida residents only) can get in free to take advantage of the new Sesame Street Safari attraction opening March 27.
But you have to register online on the Busch Gardens website. And, you have to show a certified copy of your child's birth certificate when you go to the ticket window. Regular one-day admission is $64.95 for kids 3-9. Adult tickets are $74.95. The free Preschool Pass is available until Dec. 31.
