When To Visit The Mouse……

Hmm, an interesting question came up the other day among grandmothers and we soon-to-be grandmothers about the ideal time for visiting the famous mouse of Disney. Now, in fairness, Dustin didn’t get to go to Disneyland until he was in high school. Prior to that he was a bit busy skiing in the Swiss Alps, seeing the Coliseum, splashing in the beaches of Oahu, and visiting space camp, so it wasn’t as if he didn’t take cool trips.

On the other hand, there was plenty for him to enjoy as a teen just as there are things for adults to have fun with. The truth is that if you can, more than one Disney excursion is probably in order and if that can’t happen, then I think between ages 5 and eleven is probably the correct range. Five to six might be a little young, although most at that age will be able to retain the memories of all the adventure. What to do, now that can be tricky too and part will depend on the time of year. The water park options widen the choices for summer visits and the Animal Kingdom is a slam dunk. The new “Finding Nemo” ride through the Living Seas of Epcot can also be enjoyed at a younger age with no problem. Going to Disney as a teen is fine, but the “Magic” that is Disney does tend to be appreciated more for children. The teens do get the “wow” factors and there are a lot of exciting rides if you are into that. Then again, there is no shortage of “Destination Weddings” at Disney either.
