Hello!

I just joined the boards here. My family is going Disney World at the end of this month. My husband & kids have never been, while I've been going since I was about a year old and even spent a semester as a cast member with the college program. I finally convinced him there was a point to taking our kids (ages 2 1/2 and turning 1 on our trip!) even if they won't remember.

First and foremost, welcome to the boards!

As for needing to "convince" DH in taking young children, I can give you a different perspective.
No, chances are your children will not remember their first visit... but you will! The memories that you and DH will have of your babies seeing characters for the first time, Cindy's castle for the first time, and even them crying due to the loud fireworks will be cherished by you both and something you two will share. Then, when the kids are older, take them again and tell them stories of their first time to DW. They will be enthralled with the stories and ask you to re-tell it again!

Our DD was barely a year old and still loves to hear how she was jammin to Mo Rockin and how the Genie came out of nowhere to play with her in the stroller (I didn't see him, I was busy buying stuff!)
Fantastic memories! Hope you get them too!
