Question

What's the verb for amusement park? Is it "to play"?
Is it correct to say" I'm going to Disneyland and I'll play every single machine." ?

What's the verb for all the roller coaster, and rides in amusement park in general?

Thank you.

Answer

For roller coasters, you use "to ride". "I'm going to ride everything at the amusement park!"

However, if there is an arcade at the amusement park or separate games (like hitting targets on the walls for prizes) then you use "to play". "I'm going to play this guessing game because I want to win the stuffed animal!"

"To play" is not used for rides :)
