Can any one help me. My DDprincess: is going to be 2 and i booked the BBQ and wanted to know what your opinion was?
 
Honestly to us it was'nt worth the money. While it was cute and somewhat fun, just nothing I would do again. I honestly think you could do much better for the money or TS credits. I think your dd would have much more fun at something like Chef Mickey. :)
 
I have 2 boys 9 and 6 and they were weary because of how wild it gets when the characters come out. we had adults cutting in front of kids to see and dance with the characters. I would try another character meal this one wasn't worth the money.

That was my DGD's experience. She was 5 YO at the time, went to dance with the characters and was pushed out of the way. She was just a little peanut and that was it for her. We ate and watched a little of the show with her on my lap and then she was done. Off to the playscape. I thought we could have spent our money better elsewhere.
 
I was preparing to make reservations b/c I thought my boys (ages 4 & 7) would enjoy this, but now I'm scared. Do people really act that crazy??? Knocking kids out of the way to get to charachters???
 
I don't think it is a free for all. It is a lot of children heading for the dance floor to dance with the characters. For my DGD to get a shove was enough to take the fun out of what was a little intimidating to begin with. Your kids may be fine, especially since they have each other. It is not like the other character meals where the characters come to the tables and you know that they are going to visit there in a semi private kind of one on one thing. A lot of the kids seemed to like it, it just was not the kind of activity for us.
 
We went three years ago (boys were 7 and 9) and loved it. My oldest son got right in there, and the youngest held back a little. It was a little more laid back, what with picnic tables and being semi outdoors, which fit us perfectly for that trip in the summer. Little ones, or shy ones may not be up for this, but it went well.
 
I have decided to cancel BBQ. she is only 2. And we have decided to go with 1900 Park Fare. princess: thanks!
 
We booked it too for our 2.5 year old, but I was going to cancel it anyway..NOW I am 100% SURE I am going to! Glad you posted this!

I was unsure, just b/c I didn't think WE would like it, not much into line dancing and country music....

I think we will do 1900 or Chef Mickey! :)
 
our kids were 9 at the time. 2 yrs ago. we hated it, t was too hot in there, food wasn't that good and while I love dancing too many crazy parents and kids chasing poor characters around to be of any fun
I would not pay for a meal there again.
Try the hoopdedoo much more fun for everyone
