I doubt they would be allowed to ride, unless they are 54 in high.
No probably not, the ride is very intense. Both visually, and physically. Sure maybe your kid likes bumpy rides. Does he like giant snakes, rats that fall into the "jeep", how about dead/ rotting skeletons that pop out at you. I dont thin he can handle it. And I am almost positive they will not let him ride for his own safety.
