Is there a video I can show my DD?

[Trinity721]

Is there a video/DVD I can show my DD (she's almost 3) that shows the parks and what she can expect to see? She has a great memory and I think it'll be more exciting for her to see in person what she's seen on video. She already knows all the Princesses, the Disney Channel shows and characters. Now that we are planning our trip, we've been talking about it and she knows it sounds like a fun place but I don't think she has a clue as to what we are talking about. Any suggestions?

The Sing Along Disney videos are good. They show the characters and parts of the park. Watch for the Travel Channel having shows on about Disney. Somewhere there is a thread listing the shows on Travel Channel this month. Did you order a planning DVD from Disney? It shows all around the parks and hotels. My kids have been watching it everyday.

many of the specials on the travel channel are great at showing the parks-their web site shows upcoming shows about WDW

Jenny,

My kids are 5, 7 & 9 and they really didn't like the new video...those people drove them crazy. I do have two planning videos from 2 years ago...they're DVD and I'd be glad to mail one to you...my kids enjoyed those much more. Just PM me if you'd like them....she'll have a wonderful trip! Also, when it gets close to your trip...check on the resorts board and query if anyone is travelling a couple of weeks before you...many will send post cards from "Mickey" telling your child how excited they are to know you're coming...it might be that extra little touch...we're going in May if that's close to yours....
My daughters LOVED it at age 3!
Have a great trip!
Tara

I agree with the sing along videos, they're great!

Tara, PM'ing you. And I will definitely check out those sing a long videos. I just taught DD how to sing Zip-a-dee-do-dah! she loves to sing.

Those sing-a-long videos are great, my DD10 couldnt get enough of them when she was smaller and we visited wdw. Now it is a tradition of ours to start our trip by walking to Cinderellas Castle singing "I'm walking right down the middle of Mainstreet USA-A-A"

We also used the sing along videos to prepare DD#2 for her first visit. Those and the vacation planning video were her favorite videos. We have:
Disneyland Fun
Beach Party at Walt Disney World
Campout at Walt Disney World
Flik's Musical Adventure at Disney's Animal Kingdom
