Minimum age for live shows?

BelleBaby · January 2011

What is the earliest that you would take LO to a live show? I just noticed today that the circus will be in town in mid-February and Elmo Live in late April. The boys are 19 months now, so they'd be almost 21 months when the circus was here and nearly 2 when Elmo comes to town.

Is that too young? Or do you think they'd enjoy it?

We saw a very short Elmo show that came to the military base when DD was 12 months old. Overall the show start to finish was about an hour. She did fine. I would say a lot depends on your childs teperment, and go into it knowing if it gets bad you can leave without being upset over the money.

Personally, it would have been too young for my oldest son. I bought tickets for the 2 of us to see Sesame Street Live on New Years Eve and was debating about even that--he'll be 3 in February. I can't tell you how it went, unfortunately, because I was too sick to go. I guess it depends on the child, but I can tell you without a doubt that my oldest would not have been able to sit still or enjoy a live show at 21 months or even 2.

I think they will love it! We are taking DS to the circus at the end of the month and he will be 21 months.. i cant wait. We took DS to the circus last year and he was 9 months. He slept the whole time.. lol

We took DD to Mickey's Magic Show in November, she was about 20 months. She did ok, it was about a 1 1/2 - 2 hour show. She would watch a little then try to escape. She liked having her own seat - up and down, up and down. That is who DD is though - she can only sit for so long, she is always on the go. I plan on taking her to the circus in 2 weeks, I think she might be better and would enjoy it. I say go if you would like to but don't be upset if you must leave.
