Is SWW really a good time to take younger kids? My ds will be 7 this summer and loves Star Wars. We would love to go for the experience but I am concerned after reading a few posts about this event that it may actually be too overwhelming for him (and maybe for the rest of us). It almost seems like this event is geared more towards adult Star Wars lovers than kids which I totally get and have no problem with. Just trying to get an understanding of the event and see if it's right for our family. I just keep reading about insane waits, heat, crowds, etc. Is it actually fun? We are planners and can totally plan to make the day easier by doing as much research as necessary.
I'm guessing for us the character meet and greets would be great as well as the parade. Any opinions on how enjoyable the event actually is for the 7 to 9 year old crowd would be great!
ETA - Forgot one more question. Is the entire DHS insane that day or is it just insane for the Star Wars stuff? Looking at a crowd calendar I'm not seeing that DHS is a park to avoid during these days so am wondering just how crowded the rest of the park is.
