A five-month-old boy is in a critical condition in hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest at Legoland Windsor.
The baby took ill at the theme park at around 1pm on Thursday, police said.
Yesterday, a 27-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of neglecting a child to cause unnecessary injury.
She has been released on police bail until July 26.
Thames Valley Police asked visitors who were queuing at the park's Coastguard HQ ride around midday to get in contact with them.
Investigating officer Detective Constable Zoe Eele, of the Child Abuse Investigation Unit, said: 'We are investigating a distressing incident involving a very young child at Legoland Windsor earlier this week.
'Firstly, our thoughts are with the family of the boy who is in a critical condition in hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest.
'We are supporting them as best we can at this extremely difficult time.
'We are working closely with the team at Legoland Windsor Resort but would like to speak to anyone who may have information about this incident, specifically anyone who was queueing for the Coastguard HQ boat ride between around 11.30am and 12:45pm.'
