WHICH membership should I CHOOSE?! SOME ANSWERS to FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q: I am a grandparent who would like to regularly bring my grandkids. Their parents would probably not come as often with the kids as me and/or my spouse. Which membership should I buy? 

A: If you are not a custodial grandparent - even if you regularly provide care - we recommend that you  choose the grandparent membership if you'll accompany the kids to SPI more frequently than the parents or if you wish to bring cousins from different households.   This enables you to name children from more than one household (i.e. cousins) if you wish. Parents of the named children on a grandparent membership will not be admitted for free - they should expect to pay our daily admission fee when coming with any named child on your membership. Cousins not named on the membership will also pay a daily admission fee (unless you've paid the additional cost to name them on your membership). 

Q: What if their parents will come sometime and we the grandparents will come sometime.  Which membership should we buy?

A: We recommend that you consider who will most frequently bring the kids.  Grandparents may  decide that they'd rather purchase standard family membership for each of their locally-based adult children's familes and simply  pay for their OWN daily admission on the occasions they bring the kids. This allow maximum flexibility. 

 Q: I am the custodial grandparent/ legal guardian of grandchildren living in my household. Which membership should I choose? You can choose the standard family membership. Memberships are for the NAMED individuals only so any other unnamed, accompanying adults or children would be charged our daily admission fee WOULD not automatically admit parents who are not named on the membership and they would be asked to pay standard admission.  who is not the legal guardian of grandchildren living in your household, you would want to choose the grandparent membership.  PARENTS OR GRANDPARENTS NOT NAMED ON A PURCHASED MEMBERSHIP MUST PAY THE DAILY ADMISSION 

Q: I am a grandparent who cares for and has custody of 1 or more grandchildren who live with me.  Which should I choose?
