Should we go to the Candelight Processional?

We had actually not planned on going to Epcot on our upcoming trip, but now I'm wondering if we should head there for dinner and see the Candelight Processional. My biggest issue is I have a one year old and a 3 year old. Do you think they will be interested?

In my opinion, it is something worth seeing at least once. We'll be in attendance this December with extended family the night before our wedding. With that said, it probably wouldn't be very entertaining for either a 1 or 3 year old, but I could be wrong (it wouldn't be the first time! ).

It's amazing and very moving - almost like a church service with incredible music and a wonderful telling of the true meaning of Christmas - I'd absoultely go.

We love the Candlelight Processional, however I would not think that it would hold the interest of kids that young (we don't have kids, so this is just a guess). Last year, we had a little boy behind us (about 2-3ish). He seemed to love it for the first 5 minutes, than he changed his mind and was saying "I want to go home" . I think he finally just went to sleep.

I can't imagine waiting in the long line and having such little ones be able to sit for 45 minutes through the performance. But then I don't have any little ones. If it were just adults, I would highly recommend it. We have done it every year since 1992. Love it.

You don;t have to actually attend to hear the music so I would just plan to be in the general vicinity and listen to a bit of it. I agree that toddlers are too young to appreciate or enjoy it.

We will be there in December and are passing because we have a 9,7 and 4y old. The 9 and 7 could sit through but the 4y old, no way. He would be bored and I would not want to have him get disruptive and I have visions of us just having to leave the show early. We'll wait till they are all older.

You know your own kids and how they act in situations. They may just sleep through it and you would be able to enjoy. I would think about it though first because they are quite young.
