Disneyquest with 7, 5, and 2 year old?

[mykidsmom]

I've never even considered going (truthfully, I don't even know what it is) . Is it something my children would enjoy, or is it more of a teenager/adult type of entertainment?

7 yr old will be fine and so will the 5 yr old if they like games. It will be a tad harder with the 2 yr since they dont allow strollers in DQ. We did not know this last year when we went--the boys were 15, 12, 2.5 and 5 months and boy was it rough with 2 that needed to be in strollers. My MIL and I ended ip leaving with the 2 little ones to go shopping. Dh stayed with the 2 others. We had the UHP so it was included and we didnt have to buy seperate admission.

Does your seven year old like to play video games? If not, skip it. Definately, the younger ones would not do well, or let's say, you would not do well chasing them around when they get bored in fives stories of video games. I have not even taken my 9 year old DD since she does not do video games a lot; only DS goes and one parent goes with him and the other parent stays at the resort with younger sisters. Also, there may be some things your 7 year old may be too short for, like the rollercoaster.

Just don't tell them about it, and they won't miss it.

We are planning to take our DS's for the first time this year; they will be 10 and 7.
There are a lot of height restrictions in DQ; see http://www.wdwinfo.com/wdwinfo/dquestmain.htm

It is a nightmare with a two year old- no place for them to sit in the eating area- no stroller- can you say run and lift for 2 hours yuck -never again- head to DTD and leave the big kids with dad or some other game crazy fool! The other two 9 & 11 love it and begged to return so go later in your trip

I say skip it. To us, there is so much to do at the four parks that it is not necessary to go to DQ. If your children were older, I would say give it a try, but I do not think they would be missing anything--hey, they are at Disney.

I agree, it is not fun with a little one. So many dark corners for them to dart around, and really nothing for them to do. I was less than impressed, but I don't really get into video games. I was surprised that you actually had to wait in line to play some of the games, and we went at a supposedly "good" time (meaning low crowd levels). My bigger kids 6, 7, and 9 enjoyed it, but I'm planning on avoiding it the next visit. We also had it on our UPH, or I wouldn't have even tried it.

Thanks for the responses! I think based on your replies I will skip this without any regrets that I'm missing something. Like someone said earlier there is so much else to do!!
