Question My daughter is 5yrs old and is an Ariel fanatic. We will be visiting Disney the first week in March for the first time. Which events are a must for us?

- Asked by jon on 1/22/2010
Answer Oh, your little girl is going to be so excited to see her favorite Princess! Ariel is one of my 6 year old Daughter's favorites and she always gasps in delight when she sees Ariel.

  • Ariel's Grotto in the Magic Kingdom is a must see & do where your Daughter can meet Ariel, get her autograph & pose for a picture!
  • The Voyage of the Little Mermaid show at Disney's Hollywood Studios is a show just under 20 minutes that uses a combination of live actors, puppetry, special effects & film clips. It's housed in the most beautiful Ocean themed theatre. It does have a couple of moments where I've seen little girls get frightened, namely when Ursula, the Sea Witch, makes an appearance & when the theatre starts off really dark. However, once the kids realized Ariel was actually there singing the dark moments were brushed off & they were entranced. This show is amazing!
  • Akershus restaurant in the Norway Pavilion at Epcot's World Showcase. Ariel is usually one of the Princesses that is present during the Storybook Princess meals. The Princesses come around to each table where the children may speak with them & the parents can get camera happy! Call 407-WDW-DINE to reserve a table.
I hope these help with your planning! By the way, Ariel will be in her Ball Gown during the Princess dining which just amazed the group of little girls that I was with.

Thanks so much for visiting with us here at Disney World Moms Panel & I hope you have a great trip!
