Is there room at the toddler slides to accompany a 2 year old a couple times and hold his hand while he slides down until he's comfortable doing it alone? Are there enough other activities to occupy him if he's not ready for the slides yet?
Hi Owen! Cub Paw Pool is designed for the type of scenario you asked about. There are two wide slides with a mild slope that are perfect for hand holding. You can walk on one side of the slide and hold your child's hand on the way down. There is also one other slide that has a slight curve to it, but you wouldn't be able to hold his hand on the way down. He'd have to sit down and slide down on his own. You can, however, catch him at the bottom. If your son isn't quite ready for slides at all, there are other aspects of Cub Paw Pool that he'd enjoy. There are several jet skis that squirt water, a teeter totter, sprinklers, fountains, and even a miniature version of the bucket at Fort Mackenzie. If all else fails, he can just jump and splash around like he's at the beach...minus the sand, of course. Here is the link to a few pictures of Cub Paw Pool if you want to take a peek at all the fun your son can have. :) http://www.greatwolf.com/concord/explore/activities#toddlers Thanks so much for your question, and I hope you have a great time!
Explore Family Activities at Great Wolf Lodge
Throughout the entire Concord, NC lodge, you’ll find a range of activities that will keep your children active and entertained for hours. Please explore some of our most popular attractions that the whole family can enjoy.
Fort Mackenzie™
We've turned splashing into an adventure at Fort Mackenzie, our 4-story interactive tree house in the center of our 84 degree indoor water park. Adventure through suspension bridges, swinging cargo nets, treetop slides and soaking spray stations. If that doesn't get you drenched, just wait for our 1,000-gallon bucket to tip from the treetops.
Howlin' Tornado™
Our most thrilling adventure. Grab up to 3 other members of your pack willing to drop into the 6-story funnel. You'll quickly learn how this ride earned its name. Repeatedly swish and swirl 30 feet up the sides of the funnel, before making a safe splash landing.
River Canyon Run™
Pack the entire family into a raft and together take one of the park's signature slides.
Alberta Falls™
Alberta Falls is four stories of fun. Twist in and out of the Lodge before dropping into the plunge pool. (Don't worry, the tube is enclosed so there's no temperature change!)
Slap Tail Pond™
With waves up to 3 feet tall, you'll think you're in the ocean. Grab an inner tube or let the surf take you to "shore". Waves come in 5-minute intervals. The gigantic wave pool also features zero-depth entry and goes up to 5 feet deep.
Mountain Edge Raceway™
Challenge your family to some friendly competition on our indoor competitive mat racer waterslides. Launch headfirst down the 4-story slide and prepare for some sharp turns before finishing along the straightaway.
Chinook Cove™ Activity Pool
Get into the hoopla with a little water basketball with the kids. Let them test their balance along a floating activity or just goof around (safely, of course!) in this activity pool.
Big Foot Pass™
This agility challenge keeps kids busy for hours, as they practice their balance and cheer on their friends. Little kids learn to jump from lily pad to lily pad, while the older ones use the netting above to guide themselves across. One false step and ... splash.
Totem Towers™
These twin three-story slides offer the fastest (not to mention, funfilled) escape route out of the Fort Mackenzie tree house.
Whooping Hollow™
For the "48 inches and under" set, we offer a kiddie slide that the little ones will want to try again and again and again.
Raccoon Lagoon™
Raccoon Lagoon Outdoor Pool area ranges from zero-depth entry to four feet and includes water basketball, kiddie activities, floor geysers and spray features, as well as heated water. There is a patio area with tables and chairs so you can relax in the sun. Typically open Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend, weather permitting. Hours vary.
Cabanas
Cabanas are available to rent daily for your family’s comfort and convenience in the waterpark. A Cabana has seating for four with a table & chairs, a 20" flat screen TV w/Satellite access, a safe, Great Wolf Lodge Playing cards, and a copy of USA Today.

Howl in One™ Mini Golf
Let’s face facts: No family vacation is complete without a round of mini-golf. Be sure to make a tee time at Howl in One Mini Golf, our 18-hole, interactive, outdoor mini-golf course. It’s an exciting course with sand traps and tricky shots, but easy enough to entertain putters of all ages.
Ten Paw Alley™
The majority of our guests stand below four feet tall, which is why our new family bowling alley has a kid-friendly twist: We cut the length of the lanes in half. So after a day of merrily zipping down the biggest waterslides, they’ll be happily rolling five-pound balls down kid-sized lanes. And actually hitting pins.
Northern Lights™ Arcade
If kids designed your family room, it would probably look something like this. Our sprawling, family-friendly arcade is packed with over one hundred games designed to bring out the inner child in everyone.
Scooops® Kid Spa
With whimsical wall murals, ice cream cone stools, and oversized banana split pedicure thrones, Scooops Kid Spa – our special spa designed for kids - proves that life can have a cherry on top, without being over-the-top.
