    Hello everybody, Daddy here with a "smart" question : This would be our first trip to WDW, is 19 months old too young for him too enjoy it ????

    That is indeed a "smart" question! Depending on who answers, you might get a different response, but personally, I don't think 19 months is too young. I first brought my daughter when she was two and a half, and although she remembers nothing about that trip, she loves looking through her photos.

    It really is magical to watch how her reaction changed from shock and fright to hugs and smiles when she saw her first character. All four theme parks and two water parks have many attractions for guests of all ages. It is certainly a different holiday for us now that she's older, but she still loves telling people that she's been visiting Disney since she was two!

    When travelling with children your son's age, try to resist the temptation to do it all. It usually works well to try to keep to your regular schedule, stopping for naps and breaks when needed. We always love heading back to our resort mid-afternoon when the parks are busiest and the sun is typically strongest. Some quiet time and a swim gives us the energy for an evening in the parks!

    Hope this helps!
