Kid's QS Dining Ideas?

[kateybee]

I'm hoping some of you fabulous people can help me out. We'll be heading down for our first Disney trip on January 5th and staying until the 15th. “We” being me and my partner and our two kiddos ages 4 and 7. We've got the Quick Service free dining. I have checked out the menus and all of that. It seems like we'll be serving the kids a lot of chicken nuggets and cheeseburgers. While my kids will happily eat both, I'm thinking that even they will get sick of it about halfway through if we don't have some variety. We are doing a couple of character buffets OOP that will break up the trip but beyond that it will be QS. Can anyone give me some good tips on counter service places that serve different/better stuff than the standard kiddie fare? It will be mostly just lunches and dinners as I'm figuring we'll eat at POP most mornings before heading out. Any other tips on places to go or avoid for QS meals? Thanks so much!!!!

Have you seen this thread? http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2479727 It's a sticky at the top of the Disney Dining Plan board, and has all of the kids menus typed out for the theme parks. It also lists the places that have no kids menu and has their menus as well. That may give you an idea of other things than chicken nuggets.

This is a great thread to give you ideas, but also, use a little creativity on your own. I would buy a side salad OOP for my DD and cut up the chicken nuggets and toss them into the salad and mix with dressing. Think outside the box for more creativity.

I would also share with my DD, I would eat half of her meal, she would eat half of mine to give her some variety.

You may be surprised with how much variety you can find!

Enjoy!
