Re: seseame place?
AS for dining- Characters are cute, food is awful.
I would plan on wearing a bathing suit to the park with flip flops, crocs or water shoes. Depending on their age, I always packed one dry outfit and at least two bathing suits. THis way to eat or go on dry rides I could throw a dry bathing suit on them and hang the wet one on the stroller to dry. If it was naptime in stroller, I would put them in dry clothes. If it will be very hot, I find it easier to just lug around towels for the kids, but on cooler days you will obviously need one. I pack a meal for the par cause I find the food to be overpriced and bad. We usually buy a pretzel or ice cream before the parade and then go get a god spot early and munch.
Bring sunscreen and hand wipes. I highly recommend water shoes for kids so you don't lose them and constantly have to get them on and off.
Hopefully you will be going back to a hotel to shower, but if not you need all that stuff.

Re: seseame place?
we just went and it was AMAZING. DS (19 months) LOVED it!
Character lunch--food was crap but it really is where you get to see all the characters up close and TONS of photo opps.
As far as clothing, we did 2 days. First day we did all the water attractions (so stayed in our bathing suits & cover-ups).
Day 2 we went for about 3 hours and did all the dry stuff so non-bathing suit clothes.
No need for towels, JMO, but we dried off in seconds (it was hot). I agree, remember water shoes and/or sandals.
I HIGHLY recommend you check out the Elmo's World Live Show. Its EXACTLY like the skit on TV plus its inside and interactive. Wow'd us for sure and DS LOVED it!

ITA with everything here! The food is bad at the character lunch, but it is still so worth it! Our DD loved seeing all the characters and you get a chance to interact with them.
Elmo's World Live is definitely a must see! It was great!
Have fun

Re: seseame place?
We just came back and loved it also..DD is 22 months and had a blast..first day we went for a couple of hours in the afternoon and just did all of the dry attractions and shows, parade, etc..the next day we did breakfast with elmo and friends...food was awful except for the cereal! But it was great to see all the characters and take pictures with them...we also rented a cabana..a little pricey but sooo worth it..it came with 6 character towels, a frig filled with water, a safe, chairs, table and exclusive character interaction...it was great not to have to fight for a place to sit for lunch..nice when we needed a break and DD had a nap...plus we didn't have to bring everything with us all over since it's in a roped off area that is guarded...Can't wait to go again..

Def recommend a character lunch or breakfast even though like everyone else said ,the food is bad. The food isn't great anywhere in the park though....
We go in bathing suits with a coverup over it and bring towels, an extra bathing suit and dry clothes. we usually do the water rides first and then change and do the dry rides. Def bring crocs or water shoes for the kids.
