Is it worth adding this celebration to an ADR?

[MJ6987]

Hi,
We have made our ADR's for October, but I was thinking whether to "add a celebration" to one or more of these. Our daughter (aged 8) is having to move schools in September to a specialist school that can better meet her social and communication needs (she is being assessed for ASD). I thought it might be nice to "celebrate" this during our trip rather than her see it as a negative thing.

I see that online you can retrieve ADRs and "add a celebration", one of which is "personal triumph" but is it worth it? Will they actually recognise it?

If so, which restaurant would be good to do this? Maybe a character meal (we are booked for CRT, Akershus, Chef Mickeys, Crystal Palace!) or something like Ohana? In something like CRT or Akershus would the Princesses come and say something about it? Any tips? Or just add it to every ADR and hope for the best?

Thanks everone,
Matthew

Unless it is a surpise (which is a whole discussion into itself for spectrum kids) ask your daughter.

I think the idea is fantastic! I plan to pass it on to our district's special services co-ordinator.
Book when the restaurant is less crowded and it will be easier to have a character address this special event or at least have your server make a big deal out of it.
