17 and character meals are a highlight of any trip for me! But then, I'm a crazed disney fan and yeah...

rides. the stunt shows at the Studios.

And there's going to be little kids all week no matter what. It's disney. The haven of people under the age of 7.

have you ever been before?
i think character meals are something you have to grow up loving, IMO
if they are that age & going for the first time , they'll think its lame.


IMO character meals are awsome

Anyway i dont think there is any way to make disney lame, just spend time as a family & do as much as possible!

I wouldn't really know what to say... Because when I'm in disneyland/world I act like a little kid anyway! XD

But Crush turtle talk is quite entertaining!

Sorry to intrude on the teens board but I'm taking my 12 and 14 y/o to WDW and I don't want it to be a lame trip with character meals and boring shows. What activities do you guys suggest?

Character meals are only lame if you go to a restaurant that has characters that you don't like.

As for shows, do some research on some of them. If you're not planning on suprising your kids, then ask them what they're interested in. Not only will they be going somewhere they chose, but they'll also be able to plan the trip. (PS. The Disney freak in me loves planning out shows and meals with my mom.)

I also suggest time to shop, especially if your children have an addiction to shopping. There are stores - EVERYWHERE. Personally, I take my time to browse through most of 'em.

Oh, and go on rides too! Those are also really fun.

make sure to get fast passes!
also, there ARE alot of character dinners and non-character dinners that are really cool. have fun!

Oh, also! the 50's prime-time cafe is amazing! the food is decent, but the experience is really fun. it was the highlight of our trip. the waiters/waitresses are hilarious, and really interactive.

50's Prime Time is a lot of fun. It's in Hollywood Studios. My dad got yelled at by the waitress a lot!
