We took a 12 month to Typhoon Lagoon and she had a lot of fun ... it's harder on the adults than on the baby. There are some spots in Typhoon Lagoon in front of the surf pool that are like sandbars with an inch or so of water and some "fake" old boats ... an active crawler or cruiser would like those, and there are similar areas in Ketchakiddie creek where he or she can crawl around, get squirted with water, and check out everybody else. We spent a lot of time sitting in the shallows at the surf pool watching the waves. You can definitely get burned to a crisp in no time out there; umbrella and sunblock are necessary. Ours napped after a few hours; she was so exhausted it was easy. Good luck!
