FOS with my 6 yr old

[breamster]

Hi,

First trip to the FOS and I wiill just be me and my 6yr old son. I can't wait.

My son likes to see action, rather than stationary cars and loves F1. We have just the general admission tickets.

Any hints or tips?

Thanks in advance.

P.s. We have some ear defenders for him.

Thanks all for the advice. Really appreciate you all taking the time to reply.

Tractor sounds good as does GAS. We will definitely not try too hard and just enjoy the day - I've learnt this the hard way on other days out!

I think the plan is to get there early and leave a little early.

Tickets arrived today and can't wait to go!

Well I thought it polite to report back! Fantastic! What a brilliant day.

We left just after 6am and missed nearly all of the traffic. We didn't leave till 7pm - again almost no traffic.

We did so much in one day and still didn't get to see it all. Thanks for all the recommendations! - tractor ride up the hill and walk down was ideal. GAS was great. Red arrows and Eurofighter was really good. And he has a bucket load of souvenirs which he he really likes.

A truly excellent father/son day I won't forget in a hurry and nor will he.

Thanks.

Oh - and I have already promised we will be going back next year!!
