    Has anyone ever complained about your kids at the parks?

    Planning for Kennedy Space Center

    I have flown into Orlando 3 times and I love flying in at night instead of 1st thing in the morning. We have a 7 year old and it seems so much calmer getting there in the evening. We usually arrive about 11:00 and go to a hotel by the airport for the evening then go to Disney the next day. I...

    Best Tip for Rainy days at WDW?

    Take some waterproof gloves for the person that is pushing the stroller. Daddy's hands were freezing. Wool socks will stay warm when wet. Also a raincoat or a rain suit would be better than poncho's our legs kept getting wet. The ponchos only lasted one day pack extra and carry them at all...

    OT: Planet 51?

    I took my 6 year old and he liked it. There were some toots but nothing over the top. The one that went over my son's head was when the astronaut stood up his towel fell off and the alien said that is a funny place for an antenna. Check out this site http://www.kids-in-mind.com/ It will...

    Can You Recommend The Best Hand Held (Learning) Game?

    I have a 1st grader and we have the leapster. He loves it but is to the point that he has out grown it. He will still play it but not as long as he did a year ago. We are going to get him a DSI for Christmas. There is the Digi that is for older kids but I don't know anyone that has it.

    What's your late night arrival DME experience?

    This is what we did. Something to think about. Our flight got in about 10:30 at night and had heard it could be over 2 hrs before you arrived at your resort. This did not sound like fun with a 5 year old. We rented a hotel room near the airpot use their shuttle and get to sleep asap. The next...

    Timing of Chef Mickeys Dinner ADR

    We went to Rose and Crown about an hr early (because we were tired of walking and hungery) and didn't get seated until our reservation time. So I don't know that it would be worth your time to go early.
