    This is my teenage daughter first time at Disney and she is afraid that the characters will refuse to sign her autograph book because she is "too old", how can I make this trip enjoyable for her?

    Hi Jennah!

    Thanks for stopping by with another question. Please reassure your daughter that everyone is a kid at Walt Disney World. The characters and Cast Members treat all Guests equally, so your daughter will not seem "too old" asking for autographs.

    During our family visits to the parks, I have seen children, teenagers and even adults waiting in line to meet their favorite Disney characters. Guests of all ages will pose for photos, ask for autographs and take in the magic during character experiences. I myself get just as excited as my four children each time we meet Mickey Mouse in the parks. I even took a selfie with Mickey during our family's recent visit, and instantly shared it with my friends online.

    If you want to encourage your daughter to show her #DisneySide during your visit, do a quick YouTube search for her favorite character(s). I have witnessed plenty of teenage girls swooning over Gaston near his tavern. They say no one in New Fantasyland is as admired as him. "My what a guy, that Gaston!"

    Please let me know if you have any other questions before your visit to Walt Disney World Resort.

    Have a magical day!
