No kids. But my sister was 3.5 years, and I was 5.5 years.

Our kids were 13 months and 2 years during their first trip to WDW, however, my daughter was seven months old and her brother was -5 months when we went to DLP after a baltic cruise on the Magic.

At those young ages, the trips aren't really for the kids. They are for everyone else. While it is still fun to see how a baby or toddler reacts to a huge mouse or a princess, they'll never remember it.

I took my daughter at 2 1/2 on the Disney cruise followed by a week at Disney. We drove down from NY. It was one of my favorite times in all the times we went to Disney! I knew she wouldn't remember it but I knew that I would! She was so great the whole vacation, never any problems- when it was time to nap we just went into one of the shows (that universe of energy one in EPCOT was a GREAT place to nap, as is the hall of Presidents in Magic Kingdom- she slept right through them!

I guess if I ever thought that it would be the ONLY time we would go maybe I would have waited but I knew we would go back. She went at 4,5,7,8,9 and now its been 3 years and we are going back again at 12 for 2 weeks- but that trip at 2 1/2 has always been the best one!

Oldest was 9 on our first trip (great age I may add!).
DD was 8 (pretty great age too!).

Hope to take DGD when she is 5.
