BIG Edit -- it was our CS credits that weren't split between child and adult -- we got two separate slips at TS places, one showing child and one showing adult.
Just got back from our trip and the first time with the DDP.
I had my doubts about the plan before, but as my kids are getting older I think it will be in our favor more in the future. Before we did almost exclusively TS restaurants, but getting an appetizer here, dessert there. Large meals aren't our style, but using the TS for buffets went well since would have been doing them anyway.
FWIW, our CS credits were *not* split into child and adult. I didn't realize this but by accident. We were splitting up most of our counter service meals and after the first two days our kids were sick of the kids options. I figured that two adult meals would more than feed our family of 2 adults, 2 children and a toddler. I planned on using our adult credits until we ran out and then just pay OOP. We wound up not running out and at the end of the trip I got a summary of our usage and found out that there was no difference between adult and child credits.
Unfortunately we didn't take advantage of or snack credits the way I would have liked to -- I wasn't hungry enough to get all the yummy things I wanted to try (and we missed the world showcase where a lot of them were). So in the end they mostly got used for water, milk, and mickey rice crispy treats.
I'll do reviews in the review area -- we had some good meals, had some not so good meals, but fortunately no terrible meals.
