    Bringing my twins to Disney for their 10th birthday. We will be attending the Halloween party the day before. And 3 park days starting on their birthday. I know I’ve seen kids don’t age if their trip starts before their birthday, does that apply to this?

    Welcome to planDisney, Sasha! I'm so glad to be able to answer your question today. What an amazing way to celebrate a milestone birthday! Halloween fun one night, then waking up the very next day to kick off park adventures for their double-digit birthday. That sounds like such a special trip for your twins!

    I see that you've been researching tickets for your trip, and I want to clear up a bit of a common misconception about how Disney handles birthdays and ages for admission. While it would be pretty magical if kids didn't age at Disney, everyone does need a ticket that reflects their actual age on the day the ticket starts. Since your twins will be turning 10 on the first day of your 3-day park tickets, they'll both need adult tickets for those park days.

    The good news is that you're still perfectly set up to celebrate them in a big way! Make sure to pick up complimentary "Happy Birthday" buttons from Guest Relations or at your Disney Resort Hotel. Cast Members, and even fellow guests, love to wish birthday kids well, and it adds a sprinkle of extra magic to the day. You can also add a celebration note to any dining reservations, and sometimes you'll get a little extra pixie dust during your meal!

    So while Disney can't quite stop time (as much as we all might want them to!), they're definitely experts at turning birthdays into unforgettable memories. Your twins are going to have such an incredible 10th birthday celebration at the Most Magical Place on Earth!

    I hope this answers your question, Sasha, and please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help you plan your magical vacation.
