Little Dipper is a small steel roller coaster for children at Conneaut Lake Park in Conneaut Lake, Pennsylvania. It was built by the Allan Herschell Company, using the company's Little Dipper kiddie coaster model, and has been at the park since 1950. The oval track has no inversions, and its single train has three cars that seat two across in two rows, for 12 riders.
The coaster has had long idle spells along with the park. It stood idle during 2007 and 2008, and it did not run for several years after most of the park closed in 2019. Following a refurbishment, it returned for the park's Halloween season in 2025.
With the removal of Blue Streak in 2022, Little Dipper is the only roller coaster left at Conneaut Lake Park.
