First family vacation w/ toddlers

Hi everyone,

We decided to visit Knotts for our first family vacation, and I'm pretty excited. I haven't been there since I was a teen. We have 2 year old and almost 4 year old. I know they won't be able to do much outside camp snoopy, but I wanted to see what others would recommend for us to spend time at the park. Since we don't get on the bigger rides, I'm doing the dining pass so I can eat all day haha. We got a package and stayed at the Knotts Hotel to make life easier.

Any tips for first time parents visiting a theme park?

If you want to maximize your dinning pass, where would you get the best bang for your buck?

If you stayed at the hotel, anything special you did to make your stay better or so that kids can have fun? How is the breakfast buffet?

To stroller or not to stroller.. that is the question.. Did you take a stroller or wagon? was it worth it? Was it a pain to use it around the park?
