Help with ADR's and planning for November

[KTMEMOMMY]

We are a party of 11, going in November. We can start making ADR's next week.

We are going to be in WDW the week before Thanksgiving. I am going to book 3 character meals, breakfast at CRT, if possible; the Playhouse Disnyey Characters lunch at Hollywood Studios, and maybe Chef Mickeys for breakfast.

We have 5 kids 6 and under in our group. I am reluctant to over plan because I feel that with our age groups it is going to be hard to be that structured. And nobody else in the group has been to WDW before, anyway, so no one has a clue what is going on with ADR's, etc!!

We are doing DDP, and have park hopper so we can be flexible. Any suggestions, considering our group size and the week we are traveling, regarding ADR's? SHould I lock something in somewhere for each day, or hope that we will break off into smaller groups later in the day? Will we ever be able to get something more last minute, given it's a slower week???

It's just making me crazy to try and sort out which days the park opens late, closes early adn where we should all be when. I'm trying to simplify a little without shutting us out of everything.

Thanks!

We did that last year and now again this year. Definately lock something up for that party size. you can always cancel when you are there if you cant make it. Our family loved Crystal Palace Dinner and Ohana. They were great with large families. Have fun planning.
