I decided when we booked that we would not go to MNSSHP. DS is only going to be 10 mo when we go, and I didn't think he'd enjoy it that much. Plus, we're taking a pretty slow, relaxed-pace trip. And, I didn't really want the added expense. I still wonder, though, if I'm going to regret not going. I've never been before. But, that leaves yet another reason to make a trip to WDW again! What do you think?
 
No, I don't think you'll regret it. We are not taking DD who will be 18 months at the time. I just felt it would be too much for her this year. We have a nice schedule planned and there is always next year ;) Gotta love the excuses to keep on planning :)
 
We took DD to MVMCP when she was 13 months - but that was all for us. We took her to MNSSHP when she was almost two and she had a blast. So - I wouldn't think you would regret not taking a 10 month old. I don't think I would take her to a party again at 13 months even though we did have a good time.
 
We took DS when he was 18 mos and we had a blast. Your child might not miss it being only 10 mos but you might. We really debated wether it ws worth it and I found infor on allearsnet.com complete with pictures. It made the decision for us and we have never regreted. Also took him at 2 to P&PP. He understood and enjoyed it alot more and of course DH and I LOVED it;)
 

I don't think you will regret it. We took my daughter to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party when she was 10 months and while we had a great time we could have lived without going. That said though we are going to MNSSHP this October because we DID have a good time and are looking forward to it. My daughter will be 20 months on this trip and I think she's going to have a blast. 10 months is a great time to go to Disney, I really enjoyed taking my daughter when she was that age. She loved all the lights and action going around and had a ball. Make sure you take your little one on It's a Small World, that was my daughter's favorite and it was SO cute to watch! Have a great trip!
 
We decided not to go this trip. DD will be just about to turn 4 and DS will have just turned 2. We feel it'll be too late for them (bedtime is usually around 8 pm) and they tend to get cranky if they go to bed too late. Based on this, we'd only be able to stay for about an hour or so and to pay for all 4 of us for only an hour isn't worth it to us. We'll go when we go back in a few years.
 
If you plan on going to WDW in the future when MNSSHP is going on then you probably won't miss it. However if you don't think you'll return in the future while MNSSHP is going on that I would do it for yourselves. We went last year when our DS was just a few months shy of 3 and he loved it. We loved it too and next year if we go to Disney as planned in October we won't miss it then either. I know DS will enjoy it even more then as he's approaching age 5.
