I've made several ADR's for character meals. What advice do you have for making sure my 3 y/o will not freak out? This will be her first time being around characters, and I don't know how to prepare her for them.

Hi Jennifer, I love assisting fellow Georgians with their vacation questions! I'm in a similar situation with my 18 month old Prince. He is not feeling bigger-than-life Characters! I've found that holding him on the opposite side of the Characters usually helps with his fear of big furry Characters. I don't like to have him surprised by characters when he's sitting in a high chair. He is not going for it. So I feel your pain. I would keep your little Nemo close to you when the Characters are around. I hope this helps! Have a magical day and let the memories begin! Ca'Sandra

Hi Jennifer,

I love assisting fellow Georgians with their vacation questions! I'm in a similar situation with my 18 month old Prince. He is not feeling bigger-than-life Characters! I've found that holding him on the opposite side of the Characters usually helps with his fear of big furry Characters. I don't like to have him "surprised" by characters when he's sitting in a high chair. He is not going for it. So I feel your pain. I would keep your little Nemo close to you when the Characters are around. I hope this helps!

Have a magical day and let the memories begin!
