We took our 5 and 7 year old boys to this and they liked it a lot. But, there were a TON of babies and toddlers in the audience and it was LOUD with all their chattering and crying. That didn't necessarily bother me. But I would have been bothered if I'd been their parents. First off, the "bears" are people dressed in the clothing of the book characters but they are not cute fuzzy bears on stage. I would think that would be confusing/disappointing to little kids. Secondly, the storyline was about Brother's issues on the soccer team and at school, and with Sister learning about stranger danger. My kids could completely relate to this. They would NOT have related a few years back. I think a lot of parents saw the ad for this and got tickets expecting it to be more appropriate for toddlers, preschoolers, etc. but honestly I'd take kids that age to Sesame St. LIVE before this. Again, the show was GREAT, my kids really liked it, but they're school age, which made a difference.
