Is there something my DDs, will not be able to do, if I have the Stay Play and Dine Package and not the Magical Begginings package? When I quote them online get the same price but they do have different codes. Does anyone know for sure or should I just call to find out??
 
I actually called with the same question yesterday. The extra Fantasyland morning hours will be open to all resort guests. The only difference is that if you have the Magical Beginnings package they will send you information on things for your preschooler to do while at Disney. You can get that info off many websites. They are really the same package but Disney is just hoping to entice those with young children to come during the slower season. I didn't see any reason to change what I had already booked. Hoped that helped.
 
I think the reasons why there are different codes is so that the marketing department can get more precise demographic info on their guests. For example, if 80 percent of the bookings are made with the "magical beginnings" code, the marketing department could use the info to determine if there is a large interest in preschool-age concerts and activities during this season in the future. Since kids under 3 aren't ticketed or tracked, Disney can use the code to determine that x parents of preschoolers visited Disney.
 
I called yesterday as well. We were already very excited about our trip but when our littlest child found out that the honest-to-goodness WIGGLES were going to be in concert...well, could it get any better...ROFL. The older children are :eek:
 

So, the EMHs at MK described in the advertisements are actually open to all resort guests, regardless of them having a child under the age of 5, right? This is just a new campaign to get more customers?

That is what I was told when I called. The CM that I spoke said that all resort guests would be able to attend. This is what allearnet.com is reporting on their newsletter:
In addition, special Fantasyland Extra Magic Hours will be held on Sunday, Wednesday and Friday mornings each week during the "Little Ones Travel Time." Only Fantasyland will open one hour early on these days, and only Disney Resort guests will be eligible for entry.


It really is the same as the other free dining plan, but I think that they are trying to entice those with kids not in school to come when during this season. I know that there are additional concerts directly at preschoolers, like The Wiggles, during this time. They are also available to everyone.
 
I wanted to add that the allearsnet newletter is the only place where I have seen the actual days of the extra hour. If anyone can verify or show it to be wrong, I would like your input. Thanks
