Help - Cinderella's Royal Table Breakfast for Special Needs Child?

[texaslady22]

My niece is so sweet. She's completely non-verbal (doesn't talk at all) and we'll be taking her to breakfast in the castle. All of the little girls will be wearing the pretty princess dresses, but she's in an adult L size (10 years old). She has the mind of a 3-4 year old, though, and I really don't want her to feel left out (although she couldn't tell us even if she did).

What do you think she could wear?? Any ideas?? Maybe I'll just go to Disney Shopping and see if I can find a shirt with the Princesses on it...

Just my rambling thoughts -Hugs
Hi sweet texaslady
Would she be comfortable wearing a princess dress,,,?
I've taken adults to Disney who have worn a princess dress and no one has said anything towards the people or any of us supporting them. It is Disney Hon and I'd like to "Believe" everyone can be who they want in Disney. My personal opinion is I'd let her dress up and enjoy herself but have a comfy t-shirt and shorts ready ,,,those dresses can be rather scratchy(sp).
There are some terrific DISigns for princess t-shirts here.
You might just get a "Big Suprise" smile which to me can be worth a Million words with some of the kids I work with. HUgs To you and your family Hon

My DD is autistic and for her 12th birthday she really wanted to be princess Cinderella. I took her Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. I knew they wouldn't have a dress her size, so I bought an adult size before we left home and took it to the appointment. They were so great............ they made a fuss over "Princess Erin's Gown" and the PhotoPass photographer even took pictures of the cm's steaming her gown and preparing it for her. She stayed in character all day and all day long cm's and guests would say "Hi Princess" or tell her how beautiful she was. We ended the day at 1900 Park Fare for dinner. It was a magical day.

I got her dress online....I think I paid $40 plus shipping.

Hi Texaslady, My daughter is 12 and severly autistic and can't walk for long periods so when we do WDW she is in a wheelchair stroller for most of the time and then I have a 7 year old who is all princess, so I understand your dilemma. When we did the Castle my 7 year old ended up wearing a dress and my 12 year old I made fancy capris and bought a nice top so she still looked "princessy" but I knew she was totally comfortable (no complaining the whole time). Hope this helps, and you all have a great time.

My advice is to call and let the folks at CRT know the situation. They put requests on the reservation and can let them know to make a special fuss over her! You can let them know if noises affect her or if touching is the best way to communicate with her etc.

Have fun! Put a celebration on your reservation and you will get pretty sprinkles on your table!

simplicity makes an authentic princess pattern for halloween

how real it looks, or how much it costs is really up to you from there.

Cinderella and Snow white are in one package because the dresses are so similar

Plus extra add ons can be found at tinkerbells shop

Hope this helps
