Disney with 11 month old

[kisaacs]

Hi, everyone! I'm new here, but have read a bunch of your threads and you all really know WDW!

I've been to WDW about 5 times, last time in 2004, but this time, we get to go as a FAMILY! We're taking our DD in March. She'll be 11 months. I'll also be 4 months pregnant. It was a rather spontaneous decision because we're sick of all the snow!

Anyway, we're staying at POFQ for 7 nights and doing the dining plan with one QS and one TS per day. My next mission is to try to figure out where to eat. Any suggestions?

TIA,
Kristen

Congratulations!

First, I would book your dining ASAP. I usually pick the park where I will be or my resort so I am not commuting all over the place to make an ADR.

Character buffets would offer great selection and photo ops for your dd. We like Crystal Palace in the MK, Cape May at Beach Club(we've only done dinner, and there are only characters at Breakfast if that is important to you),
and Akershus Storybook Princess breakfast in Epcot. Biergarten in Germany is also fun...the Oompah Band is great and there is a lot of background music/noise, so no one notices a fussy baby, and the food is fun. We wanted to like Chef Mickeys but felt it was too hectic and rushed.

Definately bring your own stroller. It is also nice to visit the playgrounds at your resort and the parks to let dd toddle and stretch her legs.

I am sick of the snow too, and nothing helps that more than planning a Disney trip!!

Buffets are good with a little one. You can have more fruit choices and can find healthy things to cut up small.
As far as where... our favorites with a little one are
MK- Crystal Palace with Pooh and pals
AK- Tusker House
Epcot- Garden Grille, or the CS place at Living with the Land
HS- 50's Prime Time, or Sci Fi since there is so much to look at.
