Fun Ideas for trip with 2 6 y.o. (1B/1G)

[AdventurerKat]

We have friends coming down from Seattle to join my 6 y.o. and I in May. It will be two moms, my son, and her daughter. All of us have been to WDW except for her daughter.

I want to set up some things that will make it special for both of them, for her daughter its an all new thing but also for my son, who has been alot, but might be neat to have some new excitement.

What I have so far is:

1. Ordering a basket for each child from FeralPeg to be in the room when we arrive.

2. Arranging for the pirate cruise.

3. Probably a character meal - although I am undecided on which one.

Anyone have some other neat ideas for kids of this age? Alot of our time will be at the parks of course, since her daughter has never been, but it would be neat to add some special little touches here and there.

Thanks for any ideas.

When we go, Tinkerbell comes and leaves a little gift under the kid's pillows each night.

I would recommend booking the Family Magic Tour if your schedule allows. We did this in December with our DD6 and DS4. They loved it (and so did we)! It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Thanks for the suggestions. I forgot about the FMT, that might be an idea. Anyone else?

I was going to say the Pirates Cruise but you have that covered.

Pressed pennies kept our seven year old granddaughter more than occupied for her entire week. Cheap souvenir. Save up on your quarters and pennies before you go. Disney World has pressed penny holders readily available. That could be your gift to them (plus the quarters and pennies). I think we came away with spending about $25 for the entire week and the girl was so happy to find all the "special" machines (the ones of the attractions she finally rode plus all the countries in Epcot - OK, that was her parents).
