I don't want to be confined to MK for 6 > days!!! We took my grandson at 15-months and again at 3 years old. Surprisingly, to me, he was easier to handle at the younger age. Fantasmic, Wishes, etc. were no problem but he didn't like the noise of fireworks. He was OK with stuff like Spaceship Earth but better at the MK-Fantasyland stuff (iasw, the Carousel, etc.). We're scheduled for January when he'll be 5 and it should be a major difference just watching him react to things around here. His brother though will be 18 months. It should be fun. Don't hesitate to split up for a time - send the little ones off with the parental units for a few hours while you enjoy some "adult" stuff. Then offer to take them on Small World while the others ride Space Mountain. That worked for us.

That worked for us. I think we'll be doing that a lot but I will probably have the girlies with me. Daughter-in-law's parents are newbies!!! They may do a behind the scenes tour and dad is doing the Richard Petty ride along. There are some things I would like to do but don't have to do. As long as everyone has a good time, I'll be happy. The character meals are fine because I love those as much as anyone. I'll definitely be posting a pre-trip report. This is a special trip because it's the first for the babies, first the other grandparents, first for me with kids in over 30 years, and we have a major surprise planned for my son and daughter-in-law for their birthdays.

Molly will be walking and Mommy is getting one of those harnesses that hooks onto the adult's wrist. I think they are great! My daughter has a friend who's only memory of WDW was getting lost there when she was a child and she dreads ever going back! Sara won't be walking yet at all and will be a couple of weeks shy of 1. I'm just afraid of having them get scared in certain attractions. |
