Dream Trip ---- Toddler might be to frightened to go on anything!... Post trip update...

[Chatnoir]

So we've booked a two week trip for May 18.

We booked it about 6 months ago, and it will be our first trip with our daughter, who will be 2.5 years old when we go.
We are soooo excited to take her, and obviously want the trip to be amazing and for her to love it.

But this weekend we went to a local theme park... its Very small, and has a few rides that she could go on...small train ride, small boat type ride etc...anyone, she was too scared for any of it! She loved watching them, but as soon as we tried to take her on, she'd start crying and fight to get off.

We are now a bit worried she will be like this in Disney... we weren't expecting it! she's usually such a dare devil that we didn't think this would be an issue.

We are really pushing ourselves to afford this trip (booked when we were feeling flush...now not so!) and I'm slightly concerned we are gonna come away thinking we should have saved the money and gone somewhere else!

Anyone else have experience of this? Get all the way there and the kids refuse to go on ANYTHING!


*****************POST TRIP UPDATE****************

So we've been back two weeks

Our 2 year old DD went on everything she could go on...no fuss, no tears. Most of them she just sat there lol and didn't say much, but she went on them atleast and seemed to enjoy them.

She meet loads of characters and loved them all...running up for hugs and kisses, even from the ones she didn't even know!

Before we went all the princesses were called Belle and she was more obsessed with Spider Man... now she also loves Elsa & Anna and Lilo & Stitch! She'd never watch more then a few moments of a Disney film before we went, now she asks for them all the time!

It was an amazing trip and the 2 weeks we were there went SOOOOOOOOOO fast... its feel like we didn't even go! Would it be unreasonable to book for September?
