When Disney announced they were turning Frozen into a live ice spectacular all my daughter's Christmases came at once. What made it even better was that Woody and Buzz Lightyear were also going to tag along for good measure.

So we were anticipating a magical afternoon when we headed off to the O2 for Disney's Worlds of Enchantment - with our very own mini-Elsa all dressed up in her Frozen princess dress - and what we saw left us spellbound.

From the moment our hosts Mickey and Minnie Mouse and Goofy and Donald Duck skated onto the ice my three-year-old's face lit up.

I was wondering, as was probably all the other parents in the O2, just how we were going to keep our little ones interested until the Frozen finale at the end but we needn't had been worried.

The simple but clever storylines mixed with impressive skating stunts kept even the adults attention as we were taken through four magical worlds starting with a whole new Toy Story.

The narrative explained that Andy was now at college and Hamm, Slinky, Mr and Mrs Potato Head, were being packed off to a children's day care centre.

Suddenly Sarge and his men made a dramatic entrance into 'Andy's room' with one even parachuting down from the O2 Arena roof as they performed a marching dance to a hip-hop version of 'You've Got A Friend In Me'. Later in the sketch Woody made an equally impressive kite-flying exit.

We then found ourselves watching the toys settle in at their new home and were introduced to plastic fantastic Ken who quickly fell in love with Barbie.

The pair performed a series of stunning acrobatics as he wooed her on the ice before trying to impress her with his wardrobe - a joke aimed at the grown-ups poking fun at the enormous number of outfits you could buy for the dolls.

Next up we found ourselves going under the sea as we joined The Little Mermaid's Flounder, Sebastian the crab and Princess Ariel for a colourful journey among the coral. Their dance routines and soundtrack brought the O2 to life once again before we found ourselves back on dry land.

With a booming soundtrack and explosion Disney's Pixar's Cars burst onto the ice as Lightning McQueen and his friends battled it out for the championship in extreme ice racing. Too cool!

The cars - all with moving mouths and flaming exhausts - looked brilliant as they moved around the ice so gracefully leaving me baffled as to just how they did it without avoiding a collision.

As always the best was saved until last and as Mickey and Minnie came back onto the ice they were greeted with shouts of "Elsa" and "Anna" as the hundreds of children could wait no more.

Suddenly the ice rink was transformed into the beautiful village of Arendelle as Princess Elsa prepared for her Coronation Day and that is where I'll end our fairytale day so not to spoilt it for the little ones.

It's safe to say that my three-year-old left the O2 with a enormous smile on her face - along with her parents - who despite having watched the movie 1,500 times and counting - may just admit that they too fell under the Disney spell.

London's O2 Arena is the last stop on the World's of Enchantment tour and runs until January 3. Tickets can be bought here.
