    Question Magic Bands for kids with sensativities

    We will be traveling in January. The first time for us with the Magic Bands. Both my 7 year old and my 4 year old have sensitivity issues, and can't handle watches, bracelets, etc. At Waterparks, I generally put the "bracelet" around their bathing suit strap, or I wear it, an just explain myself. Will this be ok in the parks? Can I wear their Magic Bands? My 7 year old MIGHT be able to handle it, but I know my 4 year old never could... Thank you for any help.

    I wore my DS10's Magic Band in addition to my own when we were down in the summer. He had it on upon park entry, then I wore it.

    I never wear the magic band. Just put it in my pocket or backpack. There's no requirement that you have to keep it on. Just hand it to them like a ticket at rides and park entry and then put it up and don't worry about it.

    GREAT! Thank you both! I could only imagine the breakdown of my 4 year old trying to get it on his wrist before going into the happiest place on earth.

    And then my 7 year old doing ok for about 20 minutes, and then her taking it off and having it lost for the rest of the trip!

    My 11 year old son could only wear his band for a few hours before it started causing a faint rash. I use a Dooney letter carrier bag in the parks. The strap is really thin and it worked out well strapping his band to my purse strap. It was easy to slide it up and down along my strap as needed. And I didn't have to worry about it falling out of his pocket.

    I do the same Denise. I can wear a watch, but the bands make my wrist sweaty. Just keep it on my Downey strap.
