Fabulous party that lasts about an hour. I believe the kids must be at least 4, and I can't remember the top end. Parents aren't allowed, but can watch throughthe window, CM's do a great job with the kids playing games, smacking the pinyatta (sp?) and decorating thier own cupcakes. No cost, just sign up at Eb and Flows.
You have several other questions listed, the food at Shutters and Sonya's is great, it comes out of the same kitchen and actually you can order either from either location. The porch area of Shutters is nice. Haven't tried the character breakfast, we usually wait for WDW for that one.
Another place I highly recommend is the Green Cabin room, a lounge on the second floow over looking the ocean with live music and very kid friendly. They have checkers, and other games like candyland for kids to play and will make nice milkshakes for the kids to drink. The singers are also very friendly with the kids, one of the few places like it I know of where you can enjoy live music in a family atmosphere. You'll want to try the Gator rolls, spring rolls made out of alligator....
