    Greetings from the state of Indiana, United States. Just came across your Disney videos for the first time and subscribed. I'm rubbing my chin and commenting to tell that you are extremely blessed to have a beautiful gorgeous family. Both of your daughters are lively, happy, and bubbly. Your eldest daughter is extremely intelligent. Your youngest daughter is so so adorable and cute. Her facial expressions and sweet personality when she said "It's a toothbrush, silly" while opening the "scrubber" and "toe hair comb" just melted my heart.
    Hope you and your family enjoyed Shanghai as I look forward to more of your Asian adventures. See you real soon. Cheers.

      I'm pretty sure both were Wheelchair friendly, we had the pram/stroller with us for our youngest, Sienna and had no issues getting around.
      With regards the rides, I'm not too sure, I'm afraid.
      Both parks are definatly good for younger ones, like all Disney Parks. There is so much to do, which you'll see later in the series. Sienna is 5 and loved it.
