"First let me start with the staff at the Grand Floridian is very helpful and friendly. The Tea Party started with all the parents signing in their kids and receiving pagers.(fair trade i thought...laugh) we escorted our kids in and the flashes went mad the table was decorated with plushes from the Alice Movie Tea Cups, Pots, Etc. The host then said "all kids waive to your parents...because we are kicking them out!" When time was up the kids came out with a picture of themselves with Alice and the Mad Hatter. My daughter informed me that they ate dessert first because they didn't want to be too full from lunch (they serve them a small lunch). The Mad Hatter declared he needed a grape which was followed by a barage of grapes being thrown at him by the kids. Overall my kids loved it. Parents...take your kids to the tea party its worth it!" Sam Knight

"My 5 year old daughter attended the Wonderland Tea Party. We dropped her off at 1:00 at 1900 Park Fare and were told to return to pick her up at 2:30. She had a wonderful time! They decorated cupcakes, had tea, and I think some sandwiches (she's stingy with the details). Alice and the Mad Hatter were both there. She had her picture taken with both of them and received a really nice certificate. The characters played "hide and seek" and "Hatter Says" (instead of Simon Says). We took the opportunity to go around to the Grand Floridian Cafe and enjoy a quiet, child free meal. There were only about 20 children and all were safely in the restaurant with the doors closed and when we went to pick her up we had to show our credit card receipt. . One last tip... send a camera! She took some great shots and some of the Cast Members took pictures for her as well." Suzanne Payne

Samantha will be 4 on Halloween...so she'll be one of the youngest I am sure. I gave her the choice of the cooking adventure or the tea and she chose the tea.....
 
Now I am in core dump mode. sorry! Today we got a call from a former employees sister. We really liked this employee, but had to fire him for sexual harrasment about 6 months ago. Nothing overt, but he had been warned. Anyway, he committed suicide today. I just feel so sad for him and his family.

The superheros discussion, DS is not allowed to play or bring power rangers at his day care, because he and the other kids get too riled up and start hitting and getting roudy. When I was a kid, all the "fighting" for superheros was either in comics, or somewhat cencered with a big POW. It is a little more real in todays kids TV.
 
Grand Adventures in Cooking - Children will handpaint their own apron, decorate a chef hat, read a story, and share their creations with others. Children who are potty trained and ages 4-10 may attend. Held in the Mouseketeer Club.

HI Becka's DH --- glad you are feeling better!!!
 
where did everyone go? oh yeah Angie went to DL, but where is everyone else? I am SO Jealous!
 
Lisa, do you have a count on approximately how many kids vs. adults we have? I was thinking of bringing bubbles for them to blow at sail away.

I'm debating the Tea with Wendy on the ship... think it would be boring for DD12?

we missed it last year but from everything I have heard a 12 yr old may get bored with it...
 
Just so we're clear, #21000 officially belonged to me; I'm not counting the posts with no actual content!

I have no clue the number....it's hard to guess too --- last year we had a lot of people post and then never join in on the ship.....makes it hard to actaully order stuff to give out!!
