Is this a good idea?

Sir wanted to take the kids to Disneyland (Paris) for Christmas this year, but i was reluctant thinking the boys are too young and William in particular may get stressed out from all of the noise and crowds. Also i felt that they would get more out of it and remember it better if we took them when they are older, perhaps if we wait until the boys are 3-4 and Poppy is 5-6.

But.... Sir says that we can take them now and take them again when they are older. So He has convinced me to go for New Year, after spending a quiet Christmas at home. Part of me is really exciting, knowing that Poppy will love it, Finn will be in his element and hoping that William will be stimulated by all of the music and lights and colours. But i am still a bit nervous it will be too much for him. i guess one of us can take William off for quieter activities if he gets overwhelmed whilst the other person stays with Poppy and Finn doing fun stuff with them, and we can switch round and take it in turns. And i'm really excited about all the shows and parades and the New Year's Eve celebrations, which i know will be just fantastic! We're staying 3 nights in one of the Disneyland hotels (the cowboy one) and have tickets for the park for 4 days and we've decided to travel on the Eurostar without our car as we can go right into the park itself and have no plans to go anywhere else whilst we're there.

i just hope that all the kids enjoy it and have a great time.
