Families in North Texas will be happy to hear about Six Flags over Texas laest additions to its attraction, Bugs Bunny Boomtown.

On Memorial Day weekend, the old ride Daffy Duck Bucket Blasters will return. Also, a new ride, Sylvester and Tweety Pounce and Bounce will open.

Fort Worth is already seeing warm weather with 80-degree temperatures in February. With minimal rain expected, families have the opportunity to tire their kids out with a day in the sun. The best way to take advantage of a sunny day is to spend it outside.

“For 63 years, generations of guests have come to the park to have fun and experience thrills with their families,” Park President Richard Douaihy said in a press release. “We’re so pleased that these new attractions will offer our guests the opportunity to make even more memories with the people who matter most.”

Here’s what is new at Six Flags Over Texas:

Boomtown has rides for children that are 42 inches or under. Rides with less drops, milder twists and turns, and slower speeds are available for a gentler experience.

Daffy Duck Bucket Blasters makes its return after a three-year hiatus. It is a water ride where passengers can spray each other with water as the ride is spinning. Sylvester and Tweety Pounce and Bounce makes its debut. The ride has a 41-foot drop accompanied by “pounces and bounces.”

Just in time for the summer, Six Flags has redesigned two family friendly rides: Dino Off Road Adventure and Chaparral Antique Cars. As well as enhancing the Batman ride and Mr. Freeze ride.
