Cirque de Soleil and Children

[MadAboutDisney]

Hi,

I have heard great things about Cirque de Soleil and would like to go but I have a 4.5 and 6.5 year old and wonder what the show would be like for them.

Did any of you take your little ones too and did they have a great time or did they get bored and fidgety. I just don't want to have that great expense for it to be wasted. Let's face it, any money saved in Disney is a good thing but if it's a can't miss show for all of us then fair enough.

Kind regards

We went to Cirque last year and took our DD who was then 4. Some parts were a little quiet for her but the rest of the show more than made up for it! There was plenty of 'action' to keep her entertained. She had popcorn to keep her hands busy and it helped that we didn't have to be quiet like in a theatre, as eveybody was ooing and ahing and clapping! She also enjoys going to the cinema and at the beginning of the month we took here to see Mary Poppins in Bristol and she loved it(she's 5 now)! So ultimately, you know your children best and if they're used to going to places like that then there should be no problem.

We're going to WDW at the begnning of next year and we'll be doing Cirque again. It's a fantastic show!

It's a great show for kids, it works well on a number of levels and I don't think I 've seen a kid complain they were "bored" during the show. Mostly all you hear fron them ( and the rest of the audience are Ooooohs and ahhhhs LOL)

Thanks guys, I think you've made my mind up for me.

My kids love the cinema, although they can get a bit excitable at times so I guess this will suit them just fine.

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards

Hi MadAboutDisney.
We have just returned from Florida yesterday and we did La Nouba whilst we were out there. We have an 11yr old and a 6yr old and they both loved it.
Your right, it is a lot of money to spend but it is worth every penny.
