How do I figure out who is doing campfires on what dates?

[Klayfish]

DW and I are thinking of different, non-park things to do for our upcoming Xmas trip...leaving in just two days...woohoo!!!! We'll spend plenty of time in the parks, but we know how busy it will be, so we're planning other things to do. I know a bunch of places do campfires and smores/marshmallows. But I can't find who has them on what dates. Is there any listing for specific dates, or do I have to check with each individual resort that does them?

On a related note, and other similar type activities you'd recommend? I know some places do movies...my kids may or may not be into that...they're 13, 10, 10.

The campfires are usually listed on each resort’s monthly recreation calendar. Here are a few links below. (ETA, or follow the PP’s link for all of them)

Haha, ok - yes, your one link method is much easier than mine!

It has a cost, but my kids really enjoy the Mickey Tie-Dye t-shirt making. If you follow the instructions closely, the shirts tend to come out super-cute and make for a lasting memory (well, until they outgrow them, or if you don’t do the colors in the right order and you end up with a tie-dyed Mickey blob). You do have to be prepared to lug around a wadded up mostly wet t-shirt the rest of the day, so keep that in mind (they give you a plastic bag). Also at some resorts (Poly for example), when I’ve been there the T-shirt making is behind the pool gates so would be inaccessible to non-resort guests. It’s not like that at all resorts.

Have fun!
