    food at 1900 Park Fare is it worth it for a character dinner?

    We have always loved 1900. I have never left hungry and have been quite happy with the food, but then again I am not what you would consider a major foodie. I enjoy really good food, have eaten in restaurants all over the world, and love to cook and bake myself, so I would also not consider...

    Uncrustables (yuk-I know!) in Disney POR mini-fridge? Done it?

    I haven't dealt with this but I would think they would be fine just refrigerated. There isn't any reason why they wouldn't be. I seem to remember though that our little fridge at WDW did have the tiny freezer area, but my memory may be failing me :rotfl:.

    Going to disney with all ages....

    We did this a few years ago with my husbands family. We had 11 people ranging in ages from 4-60+. My MIL put me in charge of planning out our trip and organizing things for us. Everyone in the family had been to WDW at one time or another over the years, so on weekend while we were all up at...

    Rides for 2 adults and one 5yo

    There are a lot of rides in which you will be able to do this so don't worry. Also a lot of these rides are done so there are 2 seats in one car, so if you don't all fit in together in one seat then you would be just directly in front or behind each other but still in the same car. I think the...

    I know I know but what to do now?

    I'd go this route too. It worked for my nephew with his pacifier too. Start tonight and don't waste time so you have a few days to do this before your trip. I have learned over the years that really at this age it only takes a few days of you sticking to your guns to make it work. She is no...

    How much did you budget and did you stick to it?

    Keep in mind too that their meals are HUGE! We did the dining plan which I still think is a huge savings, but we shared a lot of counter service meals and got them to stretch into an extra meal for all of us. We did a lot of breakfasts in our room too. By having breakfast foods and some easy...

    Where can I buy Mickey Mouse Rice Crispie Treats in EPCOT?

    I would think you would be able to find them in one of the stores especially Mouse Gear. You could also try the bakery in the food court in the Lands and maybe the one in Paris too.

    Destiny, Fate or Making your own luck?

    I don't think it's just one thing but a combination of them. As far as I am concerned success has a different definition for everyone. For me it's not money. It's is my family healthy and happy, do we have a roof over our heads, do we try to help those less fortunate then we are (which we...

    Shows at Disney

    I don't think those shows really alter their times too much so you would be pretty safe trying to plan it. Just keep in mind that if you are trying to fast pass any rides too, your fast pass times may interfere with when you initially planned to do a show, so you may have to change things up on...

    How secure is the room safe?

    The safes at the value resorts just have a key and are pretty small. I would think you would be better off using your ATM card and getting cash as you need it, or as the PP said getting like a Visa gift card you put the money on. You could do Disney dollars too if you plan to spend most of...

    So excited...just ordered the birthday room pkg!

    That sound like it's so cool! I wish I had know about it when we celebrated our DD birthday there a few years ago! She would have loved that. We still got some great stuff for her from the Grand Floridian, but this would have been amazing for her. Can't wait to see the pictures!

    OT - Working with a learning disability

    I live in Minnesota, and yes she too will have to pass the MCA's in order to graduate and move one even from 8th grade. There is no way she will be able to avoid taking those or have them in any other way but mulitple choice; however, she can be given extra time and have a teacher present to...

    OT - Working with a learning disability

    A) The doctor who made these recommendations was licensed doctor who specializes in working with children with learning disabilities and testing for them whom my pediatrician sent me to! She is the one who tested her and diagnosed her. Do you honestly think I would send my child to some weirdo...

    OT - Working with a learning disability

    I understand that she is not where she needs to be for special ed and am OK with the reading and math specialist. My problem is that the doctor made some recommendations for her like trying to avoid multiple choice testing, that tests may have to be read to her, working in small groups with...

    OT - Working with a learning disability

    Thanks so much for the advice. We had the meeting today and I am not happy with the outcome. First we did try to go through the school for her testing initially, but they said she did not meet all of their requirements to be tested. Our district does not test for dyslexia and processing...

    OT - Working with a learning disability

    At the end of the last school my DD, who is currently in 3rd grade, was diagnosed with a learning disability. She was specifically diagnosed with Learning Disability NOS (315.9). With her learning disability she essentially struggles in math, reading and writing. She has difficulty expressing...

    Shipping souvenirs home

    Yes any of the Disney stores will ship for you. If that is the route you take you might what to try and make as many of your purchases in one of the big stores like at DTD,MK or at Epcot so that you only have to pay shipping once. Then if you buy anything somewhere else just tuck that one in...

    Shipping souvenirs home

    Assuming you are staying on property, what we did was let the stores send all our purchases to our resort for us. This saves on having to tote them around, but you need to have at least 2 days left on your stay in order to do that. The day before we left I went to the hotel store that our...
