We just try to be very careful that DD6 does not make a mess on her costume (or her face), since we usually do BBB the day of the party. The food is ok, the characters are cute, and they want to get you out of there just as quickly as you want to leave (to begin enjoying the party). I wish the characters would come back to LTT, though, because (as we've done this for the past handful of years) we're ready for a change.
