My little girl was 6 - she was fine - take plenty of snacks and wrap them up warm - you don't want them to get freezing cold and never want to go again.

Took my 2 year old to the Wrexham game. He handled it pretty well and seemes to really enjoy it but take some form of entertainment in case boredom sets in!
My little man has not been to the Amex yet but has done both Leicester and Coventry away.
He is a jinx.

Five, STH East Stand.
I've started bringing his booster seat too & no one has complained.
He loves it & has started making up his own chants, for example:
"Crystal Palace, they're so stooopid."
Could catch on!

My little boy had just turned 4 when I took him to his first game - Burnley. He was in awe of the atmosphere (as was I). Reckon he is still a year too young if I'm honest.
My little girl went to her first game when she turned 6 and loves it.

Oh, he was 17 months at Coventry - coped well.
My boy is 4 and I took him to the Wrexham game. He was fine and really enjoying it and taking it all in until about the 75th minute when he started asking if he could play on my iphone etc. I found taking a packed lunch for him, sandwich, chocolate bars, drinks, etc, help keep him focused. He can't wait to go again!

I took HB&B to the Wrexham game. Mentally he was only two years and six months old at the time.

I felt a bit sorry for the Wrexham mascot. From our view in the Family Stand it seemed as if Gully/Sally were getting all the action and he was standing there a bit awkwardly and generally being ignored.

strong and stable with me, or...
Son 5 (most games), Daughter 7 (some games) attend with me in the Family Stand and have a great time (5 yr old sometimes feels the need for a sleep 2nd half, especially v Forest!). Lots of kids of a similar age around us, great atmosphere. Stewards are good in the FS, we often left them run down the front with their friends to see the mascot while we (the Dad's) enjoy a cheeky Harveys before the game.

4 - he liked Gullys Girls very much.
Bring plenty of sweets.
Make sure that they know halftime is not the time to go back to Nanny's house.

My eldest who's now nearly 5 went to his first game at 7 weeks, on and off after that until he was two when he got a season ticket. He has always been very good (although initially a little in awe of surprise cheering when we scored - luckily we didnt do that too often under Adams and Slade).
My 2 year old went to his first game a year ago when he was about 20 months and was on and off after that until this season when he has a season ticket. Generally okay - with flashes of boredom. Apart from my nephews behind I dont think he distracts too many others. was exceptionally good for the southampton game (as were the team).

Took my eldest daughter aged about 2 to Gillingham. I'd won the 'whatever the Withdean wager was then' and had to do the draw for the next one at half time. She refused to look at the camera so we didn't get our photo in the programme. 
She spent most of the game toddling up and down the steps on the empty terrace.

My daughter went to her first game earlier in the season at 3 years old and was fine, I've been taing my son since he was 2, he's now 7 and is totally Albion mad, wears nothing but his replica kits and sings songs all of the time. His favorite is hey jude.
Took my 3 year old to Wrexham game. She loved it, although she got bit teary when we scored as she doesn't like loud noises. However she loved all the mascots and insisted on cuddle and photo with all four of them. She liked fanzone, and was bit upset when it was time to go home. As others have said if you take couple of bits to do and lunch for them in case they get bored. She had also said she wants to go again. The way I got her out was by telling her Gully was going for bath then bed.
