my husband deploys in september for a year. we've decided that to skip the "missing-him-christmas-blues" (as much as possible), i am going to take our DD(15), DD(9), and DS(6) to WDW for christmas '10 . any suggestions on how to do WDW with only 1 adult and 3 kids?

Your oldest daughter is 15, I'm sure she can help out, no?

Considering the ages of your children I don't think you will have any problems. I have twins who are now 7 years old and by the time they were 5-6 they were fairly self-sufficient.

Actually I'm willing to bet that you guys will have a blast! Those are the fun years where you can really enjoy the kids a lot on a WDW trip.

with kids the age of yours there should be minimal problems. I would make sure that you are all on the same page with touring and what you want to see.

I took 2 kids myself in January my DD 8 and DS 2 who is ASD and it was pretty good. I told DD that there would be things we couldn't do because of DS. but with your case I would think maybe the kids could partner up for rides if the little one couldn't go on.

Have fun

With the ages of your children you shouldn't have any trouble.

Figure out what you will do if the younger one doesn't want to ride a ride. Either take turns watching him or everyone skips the ride.

It should be a busier time to go so make sure everyone knows what to do if you get seperated.

Have fun.

I also think with the ages of your kids it will be fine.

I hope you don't mean Xmas as in Dec 26th-Jan 1st. That is CRAZY busy. I do it every year, as I attend Florida college bowl games. Not for the feint of heart. MK closes due to max capacity most mornings by 11AM ish, or earlier. I'd seen 3 hour plus waits for major rides, 30-45 minute waits for major rides WITH a FP. Insane!!!!!
