We do the HDDR every year with our children. DD is 2 1/2 and has been 3 times, and really enjoyed it this year. DS is 5 and went for the first time at 2 1/2, he has remembered jokes from year to years. I've never done the polynesian show, but my parents, DB and SIL did both shows this past year. They felt the Luau was a waste of money. The show wasn't that great, and the food was OK. They all thought the HDDR was much more entertaining and worth the money.
