Fantasmic ???

[MichelleChell]

Okay I booked ADV for H&V and got the Fantacmic package. I will have a 3 yr old with me that can be a chicken sometimes. Can anybody give me a link to the breakdown of the show? Or can someone tell me what goes on. I heard something about a audience wave?? Just need help so I know what to expect for her.

It's a show, some fireworks but not alot, loud sounds (an explosion and some small fireworks), music and the screens that show scenes are made of WATER.

It's best not to sit up close, as you could get some mist of water on you.

The wave is just the same as the wave at a football game; an audience wave. It's a fun way to kill some time.

My girls love this show and have been going since age 1. They were most worried about the loud sounds. We covered their ears and they were fine. They were only worried at age 2 I think.

It's a great show but it can be intense for little ones afraid of loud sounds.

She is scared of loud noise. Like bangs and stuff but we are getting her some earmuffs that are for kids. The kind they have for shoting guns to block out noise. She will look silly at all the fireworks and stuff with them on but she will enjoy it.

I've seen some younger kids cry towards the end when they project the skeletons on the water screen and there is fire on the water. But then since Mickey wins shortly after that, they become happy again, specially at the sight of all the characters.

My dd was 4 1/2 the first time we saw it, she was a big chicken also. She hid her face through 90 percent of it. However, she opened her eyes at the very end, then begged to see it again before we went home. It's her favorite now. We also used earplugs for her, not the big headset types, but the foam type with the string connecting them. We used them a lot at WDW for several years, they are lifesavers.

Great! now I am worried I will get there the show will start and my kid will freak! Oh well I will see what happens. We will be at MK a few days before so I bet is she can make it through fireworks there she can handle other stuff.

Thanks for the help.
