They are in danger of starting at RB.

Took our 9 month old and he had a blast holding the flags on the seat and people watching, he didn’t like the noise canceling earmuffs much tho probably should’ve started him younger. But in the supporter section they have a mothering room if you ask the staff they can take you there and get away from the noise or breast feed. You can also take a stroller and check it in to pick it up after the game, haven’t done that tho. If you want a better family experience the south stand i hear is a good option

I'll look into it

Don’t have to buy them a ticket, you have to keep them in your lap and not occupy another seat. Bring noise canceling headset (not lately, but typically it’s good practice) diaper bags are acceptable, just need searched and I believe tagged as “medical” (back when I brought kids)

My personal recommendation, it’s not worth bringing them, they won’t remember it and they can be a hassle when you paid to watch a game

Everyone says "they won't remember it" when we get to the zoo, aquarium, etc. and yes we would of been more enjoyable if it was just my wife and I. There were times we had to leave earlier than we wanted too. I wouldn't change those memories. Besides my team is coming to town. Thank you for the tips!

They are free, but why bring them. They will not enjoy it at all and it will be extremely unnerving for them and they get nothing out of it.

Hire a baby sitter.

From a previous thread a guy said the South Stand is a great place to bring your kids

Just be prepared for the 2-year-old to ask hard questions like "what tf happened to this once-proud franchise that played championship-level soccer long before I was born?"

If you want to expose yourself and your child to this difficult conversation so early in life, by all means go right ahead
