Would you say that Disney Quest is worth the visit?
My DH and I have a daughter who will be 2 next month and we are going to WDW in July with her and our son who will be around 3 months old.
We have never visited Disney Quest before and to be honest don't know much about it. Any information would be helpful!!
Thank you!!!
Disney Quest with an infant is very difficult. They don't permit strollers inside because it would be a fire danger with all of them in there. Strollers are parked outside the quest area. The air conditioning is very cold inside. I had to dress him for warm weather outside and bring something to bundle him up in layers for inside DQ. When he was small I used an infant carrier. As he grew we switched to the playtex hip hugger. Because it's just too difficult to carry them the entire time. When he was able to crawl, he was a disaster there, as people are too distracted by the sites and sounds to look out ofr a baby crawling.
For a toddler, Disney quest is great! Since they have an area they can use. (Just be aware that the unused electrical outlets do not have outlet plugs, and there are chairs located where the kids could stand up on them and fall into Buzz Lightyear astro blaster. And there are entry ways into the cafe and other areas here) so you can't leave them out of your sight for a second.) The games however, will entice them and keep their attention. We just went for lunch and stumbled across this area on our way out. We let him play for an hour. He was not ready to leave when we did and he put up a big protest.
Here's 2 pics I told on Tuesday. Sorry I didn't take more.

Please know that THE BEST hamburgers on Disney property are at Disney Quest!
The dessert area on the 4th floor has vanilla icecream that you can purchase separately. They don't have it marked on the menu. Often we get the souvenier cup filled with rootbeer and ask for a dish of vanilla...and we've got a rootbeer float!
If you buy the souvenier cup, refills are only $1.00 plus tax.
They use to have water and drinking cups available at the food area. Years ago someone slipped on the ice fallen on the floor, so they were removed. If you are opposed to drinking water from the fountain, you can always ask for a cup for water when you order food.
DQ on a rainy day...well, if you do this just know that many people get the same idea. It will be very crowded.
DQ on a sunny weekday...it's empty. Enjoy the place to yourself! From time to time school groups and day camps go on fieldtrips here. Only once was DQ packed with groups on a weekday when I went. And boy was it packed. Usually the crowds draw on a Saturday.
I sad to say that I read on a different website that DQ is closing in 2008 and a ESPN sportlounge will take it's place. So if this rumor is true, go now, so you don't miss the DQ experience.
Be sure to bring a sweatshirt, the temp is cold inside. However, when you play Mighty Duck's pinball slam, you won't be cold! You'll work up a good sweat!
There are height requirements for some games.
That's everything I can think of right now.
