Fun "boyish" alternative to My Princess Tea Party

[michvin]

I am planning on taking my DD to the My little princess tea party at the Grand Floridian. However, my DH will have my DS age 6 and other DD age 18mos himself while here and I have our tea party. Any suggestions on something neat they could do together while we at having tea with Princess Aurora? We have a back pack for the baby so doing something like putt putt is okay.

We took my brother to this (he's 12 now, was 6 at the time) and he loved it. Unfortunatly Disney doesnt have much for boys in the character theming area. Boys, being boys, my brother loved that he could play video games watch movies and got 'free' food away from mom and dad.

Your DH could drop off your son at this, and then take your DD to McDonalds or something (seeing as she's 18months she'll be easier to impress)

I realize that this doesnt involve your DS and DH together, but your son would feel special, and have fun.

Short of mini-golf (which you seem to already know about) Im not sure what else there would be to do, aside from the obvious, of going to downtown disney, rain forest cafe etc...

The mini-golf at Disney is great btw. I recommend the Fantasia one. But both are equally great.

Hope this helps!

Our kids did the Pirate treasure hunt in December. They loved it I also remember reading about a fishing excursion...I think your DS and DH could do it together. No ideas that include the baby though. Sorry.

Send them over to AKL and they could spend a couple hours doing the Hidden Mickey search there. Just have them ask for a clue sheet at the front desk. It took us about 1 1/2 hours to do it. After they find them, take the paper to the gift shop and they will give them a cute certificate.

The Neverland Club isn't open to leave children during the time the Tea is held so that isn't an option.
