    What Character dining would be best for a 2 year old? In addition, would the Hoop-dee-doo show and the Luau be entertaining enough for her?

    Hey Shelly!  What a wonderful treat for your little one!  Okay my first recommendation would be Chef Mickey for a wonderful character dining experience.  It is very entertaining and will definitely keep her attention.  The food is also quite good.  The Princesses Storybook character dining (Epcot) would also be a great one for her, as the princesses really spend time with your little princess as they make their way around the dining hall.  I am not sure when you are going, but the Crystal Palace is another one of my favorites.  However it will be closed for refurbishments in January and part of February.  If you are not going during this time, then I definitely would put that high on the list for a 2 year old.
    Also I think she would be much more entertained by the Hoop-dee-doo rather than the Luau.  I took mine when they were her age to the Luau, and they just did not seem to enjoy it.  We went again this past year, now that they are older ,and it was a completely different experience.  I would recommend the HDDR for sure.
    I hope these recommendations help and that you all have the most magical WDW vacation.  Thanks for the great question, and for coming to the Mom's Panel.
