We really enjoyed the show. MY DD12 was able to play beast (and laughed the whole way through it) and DS 7 was a fork or something. They had a good time.
My favorite parts are not only the show, but being able to see Belle's home. Her age is never really released in the movie, but it has her height marked off at different ages - up to age 18. A picture of Belle and her mother are there. When the wall opens up - that is pretty neat as well.
The Lumiere special effects during the show are great! And honestly, after the show I LOVED seeing all the little boys and girls going up to hug Belle and get their souvenir (a bookmark). They get so excited.
When we went in April, there was a family of daughters there - ranging from HS graduation to 2 preschoolers. I think about 5 sisters total. The older girl helped shepherd her sisters around during the show, and sent all her sisters ahead of her for pictures.
When it was finally her turn for a picture and hug from Belle, the older girl stopped before her picture with Belle and asked if she could have her sisters in the picture with her instead of an individual one, because this was her last big trip with her family before HS graduation. Instead the photopass photographer and Belle did an individual one for her, and then quickly took some pictures of her with her all her sisters, then a picture with Belle and the entire family. And they did it fast. It was nice to see some 'pixie dust' in action. I usually don't pay attention to other families on vacation, but I got a little teary. The way it went down was super sweet, especially seeing the little preschool girls (probably twins) clinging and hugging onto their sister's legs and smiling. I also thought it was sweet because at first I thought the oldest girl was avoiding Belle by sending all the other girls up first! Ha!
