This is a really cool event, and well worth going

Yay! Love this event! :D

Is 19 months too young to enjoy it?

What time is the best time to go? i want to go this year for sure!

Thank you for posting this, we had a great time last year. I'd go early, like as soon as they open. Lines do develop for some things, like the pottery wheel.

I have never been and always want to go. I hope the weather is nice!

What time is the best time to go? i want to go this year for sure!

I'm not sure on 'best time' but we have to go right at opening... We're going to the ice-skating show at 4 that day, so the only way we'll be able to do this too is to go at 2! lol

& Cheryl... does he do crafts? Color, paint, glue...? I'm sure there would be *something* he could do...! :) It's free!

It is indoors so weather is no challenge :)

I'm not saying he wouldn't enjoy it... but 19 months is a little young for the crafts they had last year. If you take him, be prepared to do the crafts yourself:)

:) The crafts are loads of fun though! I wanted to do the pottery wheel myself last year but I was being bad enough just going there whilst on bedrest.. :bag

Hope to see some of ya there.

There is some live entertainment as well that I always enjoy and the little ones usually do too.

We had a great time last year.......may try again this year and I agree about going when they open. They started running out of everything last year.

It is indoors so weather is no challenge :)Unless its icey out;)

We plan on going as well.

We went last year and Caroline had a great time. She was a bit young for some of the crafts, but others were fine. There seemed to be a large variety of crafts so I would think there would be a few he could do and others you can help him with. Thanks for posting.

This sounds fun! We will be in Frisco that weekend for a soccer tournament. Does anyone have a rough idea of how far Pizza Hut Park is from the Plano Centre? Thanks!!!

thanks for posting, I think Carter would really enjoy this.

Thanks!

We loved it last year. Michelle, want to take the kids together again?

Awesome for posting! We are going to go. I hope my daughter will enjoy it.
