    Best age to start going to WDW?

    Age 4 to me is the best age to start. Kids are potty trained, are old enough to understand what is going on and be excited about characters and are able to ride most rides.

    Which buffets/all-you-care-to-enjoy restaurants do you find the most worth your money?

    Tusker House lunch or dinner (I'm not a breakfast person).

    Best age for child's first visit to WDW? Poll Inside!

    I voted 4. That was the age we took each of my girls for the first time. That wasn't by chance, that was careful planning on my part because I believe it to be the perfect age. They are old enough that they are out of diapers and not in the midst of potty training. They were tall enough to...

    Preggo w\ 4 yr old 7 nights Wilderness Lodge Trip Report

    First I will introduce myself, I'm Mandy and I was 19 and 20 weeks pregnant the week of our trip. I traveled to Disney World with my 4 year old daughter, Ally, and my parents on Tues, May 4th. My husband, Andy, arrived Friday night and my parents left Sunday so they had one day of overlap on...

    Where do you book your resort & tickets?

    These are the best deals I could find at the time: Resort rates - go to mousesavers.com and use their codes to then call the Disney Reservations line. You might be able to find cheaper rates online at a place like Expedia but then you can't make any special requests and I'm not sure how the...

    What do you pack in your carry-on?

    We were flying in early afternoon and were going to head pretty much straight to a park after checking in so I had everything in my carry on backpack that I would want to have to take to the park. You are able to take snacks with you on the plane, including fruit. I avoided all liquids but...

    What do you pack in your bag to take to the park?

    I took a small purse that I wore across my body that had all of the valuable items like a small wallet (with park tickets, credit card, cash, insurance cards, etc), my camera, cell phone and things needed for the restroom - post its (to cover the automatic flusher for my DD), individually...

    What is your not so normal item to pack, which is helpful while at WDW ?

    Must haves for me in using public restrooms with my DD were post it notes to cover the automatic flushers and individually wrapped sanitizing wipes for cleaning the seats (you can buy them in bulk at Sams Club). Brita water pitcher. I would fill it up in my hotel room (since FL water tastes...

    Best Counter Service?

    Animal Kingdom - really liked Pizzafari - I had the Italian sub and it was really good. Magic Kingdom - Cosmic Rays was pretty good. Liked Pinocchio's. I had the pizza there. Epcot - the fast service restaurant in Morocco. Ate there on advice from this message board and everyone in our...

    Airtran in General?

    We just flew with them and didn't have any issues. We checked in 24 hours in advance online and were able to pick our seats. Had two big suitcases that we made sure were under 50 lbs and they were $15 each (1 per passenger at $15 each to check) which I was fine paying since we got such low...

    Top 5 Disney restaurants

    Would definitely say Le Cellier is in the top 5.

    If you can only get Le Cellier for Lunch

    We went at lunch and it was wonderful. We had the highly recommended cheddar cheese soup, they had the pretzel bread at the table and I had the New York Strip steak. It was heavenly.

    Food/Supplies you buy to have in your room...

    We flew so I had to be picky about what I took but I wanted to have things to eat breakfast in the room and pack some snacks for the parks. I used a shoe box in each of our suitcases for the softer things and had some things in my carry on. For a week I packed: Fruit Snacks 2 small...

    Making room requests

    Yeah, I made my request over the phone with Disney Reservations (which is how I booked) and then followed up a few days before we arrived by calling the resort itself. I got what I asked for so I was very pleased.

    Do you stay the whole day at the park?

    I would highly recommend taking a mid day break back at the hotel. The kids very well might sleep just from the go-go of being at the parks and the heat of the day but even if they don't you can swim or just take that break during the busiest time of the day at the parks. When starting so...

    How old was your son/daughter on their first visit?

    We took Ally at 10 months old just for a day and it was OK for that one day but wouldn't have been great for too long of a trip. We just got back from taking her again and she is 4 and she did great. It was such a fun trip. I think we'll go again in 4 years once our next child is 4 because...

    Skipping Animal Kingdom

    We liked visiting Animal Kingdom for a morning and early afternoon and that was good enough for us. I liked it but it wasn't one we felt we needed to go back to a second time on our trip. We had a park hopper pass so we were able to go somewhere else later in the day. It's a park that closes...

    Undercover Tourist for Park Hoppers?

    We got ours from them and had them shipped to our house. I would highly recommend them. They were the cheapest I could find for tickets. If you sign up for the Mousesavers.com newsletter (I think it comes out the 15th of each month via e-mail) they will provide you with a secret link into...
