    Craft ideas for 10 y/o Birthday

    I 2nd the duct tape craft...it's fun and a "clean" craft, very little clean up and no spills, LOL! For my DD's 11th birthday, I bought wooden picture frames from the craft store, they were $1 each, and a bunch of different duct tape patterns and let the girls decorate the frames with the...

    Best iPod deal this week !

    Be careful when buying the lesser expensive models...the 16G one selling for the low $200's does not have a rear facing camera. It has only a front facing camera for use with Facetime or "selfies." Depending on the age of your child, the camera is a big deal, so double check before you...

    Help with dining plan

    I agree that you will be fine with the regular DDP. We used some of our snack credits to get things like fruit in the resort stores (a large container of strawberries lasted us 2 days) and with your mugs (you get them with the DDP) you can get coffee and cocoa. We did a couple TS buffet...

    Only one PP+ card per purchase, but if you can have photos from restaurants or rides loaded onto your PP+ card at a later time, if you have people at different places. Have the person write down the numbers of the ride photos or dining photos and they can be added later on at any of the...

    I was unexpectedly surprised with dinner at ___________.

    Mama Melrose in DHS... I had heard not so great things about this place, but we really wanted the Fantasmic package and this was all there was. We went last week and I've got to say it was one of the best meals we had all week! We have the mussels and fried calamari for starters, both...

    Better for 7 and 9 year olds

    We just went to Hoop-De-Doo on 2/23 with DD10 and she LOVED it! She was chowing on fried chicken with one piece in each hand, while laughing up a storm during the show. I missed a lot of the show, 'cause I was too busy looking at her reaction! The food was great, the show was good fun...

    Character Dining for 8 yo b/g twins?

    We went to Garden Grill last week for the first time and that was a great character dinner. They have Micky, Pluto, Chip & Dale, so definitely not too girly! Food is good, all you can eat family style serving and the restaurant experience is cool because it revolves through the Living with...

    BOG - Is there any hope of EVER getting a ressie less than 180 days out??

    As someone else mentioned, the lunch option is always available. We got in line last week about 11:30 and waited for about 30 minutes. Food was good, we got to pick where we wanted to sit, and it was only a counter service credit instead of TS. We booked our trip only 50 days before we...

    BOG atmosphere, lunch vs dinner

    We were there for lunch last week and we thoroughly enjoyed it! One of the good things about lunch, is that you can choose where you want to sit, so you can wander through all 3 rooms to decide. After we ate, we went back into each of the rooms and took pictures. My daugher was adamant...

    Packing List

    We just got back last night and I brought sooo much stuff, a lot based upon the various lists of stuff to pack...and most of which I never used. A lot of the items depends upon the ages of your kiddos, but outside of your normal travel items like toothbrushes, etc., we did use the following...

    What attractions CAN'T you leave early from?

    We were there last week and someone left the room during Carousel of Progress and the show didn't re-start. I remember thinking it was odd that they could leave, I didn't think you could after the show started, but as we were just getting into a new room, there was an EXIT door at the back...

    Planning first trip for DD is stressing me out

    Breathe...breathe :rotfl: I agree, you can make yourself crazy trying to plan the "perfect trip!" But, really, no matter what, everyone is going to have a wonderful time, whether everything goes perfectly or not. This isn't a life decision, it's a vacation, even if it is a big one, try and...

    Adding Magic to the Magic

    We've always had Tinkerbell leave little gifts each night of our trip and most came from the Dollar Store: Disney figurines, puzzles, yo-yo's, jumpropes, books, coloring books, etc. You can find lots of things at the Dollar Store and you can usually find Disney Birthday party decorations that...

    Help with goody bags

    In the past, our stuff was always left by Tinkerbell while they were asleep for a surprise in the morning...usually a couple things a night, with pixie dust sprinkled around it. I always got my little gifts from the Dollar Store. I was in there this past week and saw Princess and other...

    Ohana's and Peanut Allergy

    Thanks for all the input. I think that I will be canceling the reservations. Although I'm sure they will do their best, it's just not worth taking the chance. We have never been to Ohana before, so I wasn't sure of the atmosphere and didn't realize the menu when I made the reservations, so...

    Ohana's and Peanut Allergy

    My daughter has a peanut allergy, very severe. She doesn't have to actually eat the peanuts, just touching is enough for a reaction. I've booked a meal at Ohana's, not realizing that they serve quite a lot of peanut sauces in their food. Now, we are very careful and have never had an...
