My oldest was probably 2 when she first watched Star Wars. My son is almost 4 and loves Star Wars! My kids don't scare easily and they love it. We started with Episode 4: A New Hope. This is the first Star Wars made. 5 and 6 aren't bad either. There is slight language, but not enough that...

POTC and Haunted Mansion don't have FP, but they load lots of people quickly. I'm no expert, but I would say go to BTMRR and SM first thing, since those are next to each other and are very popular. I would ride one and get a FP for the other if I couldn't just ride stand by in a short line for...

Thanks for the plans! We are planning to be at the park when it opens on our MK day. Right now, I'm planning a Wednesday. We also have PH tickets so we will probably visit MK more than one day. We will arrive on a Sunday afternoon and want to go to MK first since it is quintessential...

I've read a few blogs that suggest going straight to Fantasyland and doing Peter Pan and Winnie the Pooh before heading to either BTMRR and Splash or to Buzz and Space Mtn. Any thoughts on why?

Is Merida in the same place as Rapunzel was? I'm not really sure where this is in MK. Is it where Belle's Fairytale Story was a couple of years ago? Near the tea cups? If it is, where did Rapunzel move to? Thanks!

We have been to Disney several times, but only during LOW crowds (early May and Dec)! This June will be our first time during the summer and I'm scared of the crowd levels! We plan to be at rope drop for our MK day, but this is the most concerning park to me, since it is relatively small and...

My husband and I took our 2 year old daughter to Disney a couple of years ago. She had a blast and we did too! However, it is definitely going to change the dynamic of your trip! If you are wanting a good trip of bonding time with your mom, I would suggest taking him on the next trip. If...

We took our baby boy when he was 6 months. He was not afraid of Snow White at all. He did get a little agitated towards the end on the Haunted House. I feel that he was too little to be scared really. However, now that he is almost 3 and still fearless, it could have just been his...

Keep trying. Both the BBB and CRT require a credit card to book. If you don't cancel within 2 days of your reservation, then you will get charged. There may be some cancellations a week before your trip!

You are prepared! We are from the Houston area too and have been to WDW twice at Christmas. The weather is exactly like Houston! :) It may be warm or very cold. Our first trip had highs in the low 60's with a cold wind. It warmed up to the 70's on our last day. The second trip was...

Thanks for the great tips! I read these posts and was able to get a reservation at Garden Grill this morning! :cool1: There were several times that opened up. I am hoping that it won't be a super busy week since we usually go right after Thanksgiving before Christmas. I have a...

We really want to go to the Garden Grill but I've been unable to get a reservation. Our trip is in 2 weeks. My kids are big Chip and Dale fans and it was awesome character interaction at our last visit. My plan is to try to be there at opening (4PM) one day and just see if we can get in...

I thought it was a lot of fun. My DD was 2 when we went and she had a blast just dancing in her chair. We sat up in the balcony and it was fun. I noticed that kids around 8-10 seemed to have the best time although it was fun for adults, too! The show is funny. It's some slapstick and...

I liked Yak and Yeti (quick service) in AK. Flame Tree was good, too. In Epcot, we ate at Sunshine Seasons. They have a lot of different entrees there that are not just burgers and fries. I agree with the previous poster about DHS. I don't remember many options besides hamburgers and...

We had the QDP when we went last. I always plan out which parks we will be visiting on the days that we are there. I actually looked through the quick service restaurants and picked a few that I knew I wanted to try. No ADR's to make officially, but I had them in my head! I did enjoy the...

We did HDDR with our 2.5 year old. She's pretty active as well, but really enjoyed the singing and dancing. We sat up in the balcony and had easy access to the stairs and out the front door for a bathroom break. She's into dancing and singing anyway, so if your friend's DD is into that, she...

Thanks for the replies. The CM that did my reservations really talked up how nice CSR is but I'm still leaning towards French Qtr.

I have stayed at PO Riverside for the past 2 trips and while I like the rooms here are the things that were huge downers: -Being so far from the food court that we didn't get to refill our mugs (We were in Alligator Bayou and it was literally a 10 minute one-way walk up and too far to carry a...

We stayed with 3 adults, 2 kids at Port Orleans Riverside in the Alligator Bayou section. There are 2 double beds and a roll-out bed. The baby slept on the roll out bed. He was 6 months at the time. It's basically a mat and has a curve to it to keep them in, although the whole bed is about...

Riverside sometimes shares a bus with the French Quarter, which is adjacent from the parks. From my experience, French Qtr gets their own bus at park closing and seems to share with Riverside from the parks back to the resort at other times. The first stop is the main stop at the lobby. The...
