Hey Buzz... The water parks are a big part of our trips. Here's the scoop -- at TL, the kiddie section has some little slides that they can very easily manage by themselves, and some little water cannons they can shoot around. Plus, the wave pool has enormous areas specially designed for tiny kids to slide into and to play in small waves. And the lazy river is a great option. If your litte one is a decent swimmer, you could even try the Shark Tank, which has been our kids' favorite forever! Teh Shark Tank has gotten much easier now that you don;t have to wear a wetsuit shirt. Lots and lots of sand to play in, too. The tropical theme is pretty neat, especially if you live way up in teh great white north...
At BB, there is a larger kiddie section, but the littlest ones need an adult to help them on some of the slides. Also, the section is pretty far off the beaten path. There is also a smaller wave pool. The place is themed like winter, which we see for about 9 months out of the year at home!! That said, if your 4 year old likes to slide and is pretty sturdy, there are some very small slides that might also be appropriate right in the middle of the park. But be warned: BB has an unbelievably cool, very visible section for kids who are a little older -- like maybe the 6-10 year olds. But every kid who sees that section wants to be in it, even if they aren't anywhere near old enough. For that reason, we took the kids to TL for several years until they were old enough to enjoy all the BB options.
