    Last minute trip advice

    I found this page really helpful: http://www.disneytouristblog.com/disneyland-anaheim-hotels-reviews-rankings/ Edited to add that I just looked and don't see those on there, but maybe someone else will find it helpful!

    How scary is Haunted Mansion?

    We've always carefully told our kids about it before going on it, and make the distinction between scary (frightening) and spooky (fun, like Halloween). We talk about how spooky and silly it is. It's always been okay (as long as you warn them about the lights going out and screaming in the...

    double stroller questions

    My kids are 6 1/2 and 4 and I've just decided to bring our city classic double stroller next week when we go. Last year we brought a city mini single and my then 5 year old got sick and wanted to ride the whole time and we ended up having to carry the almost 3 year old everywhere, or balance...

    Columbia Harbour House

    I can't believe no one has mentioned the salmon, couscous, and broccoli meal! It's the meal I look forward to the most at the MK! I am not a huge salmon fan, but it's always been moist and flavorful and not fishy. The couscous is delicious, and the broccoli is perfectly cooked. It's like a...

    There is no WAY we could have eaten it all-FINISHED!!!!

    Yum, those coconut paletas are one of my favorite things at WDW! I never thought I'd say that about a popsicle either :)

    Epcot w/4yo - what to do?

    My family loves Epcot. My 4 year old was tall enough to ride Soarin' and I was excited to take her but it was a disaster! She was petrified and cried the whole time but *would not shut her eyes*! I tried so hard to get her to look away or close her eyes but she just wouldn't, like a deer in...

    Should I Extend our Trip?

    I think longer trips are easier because you can get settled in more and don't need to rush so much. My kids love Epcot and it's my favorite park, so we'd never skip it.

    January 2013 Discounts

    You have to wait. It makes no sense to me either, think of all the people who would be signing up for the card right now if that weren't the case! Don't they want more card holders?

    January 2013 Discounts

    International travelers need to plan farther in advance, so they get the deals first. I am planning a trip for my family and my MIL will be joining us. She'll be getting her own room. Where do I find this intl site and the deals? It would be nice if I could at least get her a discount.

    January 2013 Discounts

    I think so too. I just got a mailing advertising their end-of-2012 deals, I can't imagine getting another one with new offers for a few weeks at least.

    kindergartener troubles DD wont work at school and has tantrums

    I completely agree with Ian3. Your daughter's school sounds awful! Very developmentally inappropriate. Kids learn through play, not through worksheets. My daughter's K teacher doesn't do worksheets because there is no benefit to them, and it just teaches kids that school and learning are...

    Right there with you. I refuse to book before I know what I'm paying, it's getting very frustrating. I hope the wait is worth it.

    Disney in January and February

    Definitely bring things to layer, it can be really cold in the mornings and really warm in the afternoon. Despite the number of times we've gone to WDW, usually in the winter, we've still had to buy sweatshirts there and there because the cold takes us by surprise!

    Napping in the parks. Please say it can be done!

    We've done maybe 5 trips with little kids so far and have never gone back to the hotel for a nap. I can't imagine my kids not falling asleep on the way there, and I can't imagine them willingly taking a nap in the hotel room. They just fall asleep in the stroller and we find a quiet spot to...

    12 month old - Eating at the World

    We went for my son's first birthday and he was eating table food, so he'd eat off our plates. I tried to make sure someone in our group got something that would be easy and healthy for him to eat. When my daughter was 12 months she wasn't really eating much solids at all, she was still getting...

    Nap/break in Winter??

    When we went last year DD was 4 and DS was like 20 months. We had our city classic double stroller with us and they both took naps in it every day in the park. We'd recline it, pull down the canopy and throw a blanket over it and they'd be out like a light. We've never taken a break at the...

    And...another stroller question (for 5 year olds)

    We have a 5 year old (46") at home and a city mini. She rides in it occasionally when her little brother wants to walk, but it's really not very comfortable. There's not much room for her to put her feet. Our double stroller is a city classic (much like the city elite) and I say go for that...
