I waited until my child was 5 for their first trip- but only bc I was worried about taking him alone.
I have photos of me and my parents age 1 with my Mickey ears on in front of the castle (I wanted that same photo of myself and my son). Of course I do not remember that trip, but my parents said I loved it! It was only 2 or 3 nights though, added to a beach vacation.
When I finally took my son we stayed 8 nights at Poly- he absolutely loved everything about it. I tried to stay 1 more night but they were full, so we switched to POFQ for that last night. His initial reaction- "Mommy, can we go back to the Polynesian, this place has a baby slide, and I can't see the castle and space mountain." He ended up being fine with it and we loved the boat ride to Disney Springs!
What I learned the most on that trip- we will never do that amount of time again. It was way too much! I think 5 nights will be max here on out.
