Perhaps the all-ages franchise that’s very popular with children should have an all-ages dark ride with no height restrictions…

I'm having trouble imagining how they'd even build a broom ride with no height restriction

Not everyone in the wizarding world can ride a broom due to age and height!

I know you're talking about Potter, but what Universal Orlando attraction fits this criteria?

It just seems the criticism is not Potter specific but is a general Universal criticism. No one seems to actually delve into why this might be other than it being an 'oversight' and/or 'not within Universal's target demographic.' I'm thinking it's actually safety related.

To me, it seemed that Universal basically said that they were going to get the pre-teen, teen, and young adult audience and let Disney have the toddlers and young children. However, with three theme parks, it might be time to start having the rides for children of all ages. I thought HTTYD would benefit from a good dark ride instead of the spin and spew. SNW has Mario Cart, which I think is good for all ages. I mean, it has a 40 in height requirement but that is basically a three year old. I always question how much a toddler under three years old can remember or enjoy a ride, aside from funny colors or maybe a character or two.

I mean there's Yoshi as well (which is the same ride vehicle as SLoP?) and is essentially a baby ride, but that also has a height requirement. Disney does 'no height requirement,' but as far as I'm aware, Universal does not. (Some exceptions for flats like Constellation Carousel, but the criteria in question is dark rides.)
