I'm planning on sleeping in the day of the party and the day after. Or do you think one day after is fine? I have a dd9 and a ds8. I know it depends on your family and all that but just curious what some of you are planning on doing thanks!
We usually go back to the room by 2p and take a nap, including the grown ups. In December hubby and I didn't take the kids so we didn't nap and oh boy did we regret it. My kids are 5,7 and 9. Either way its a lot of fun.
We are doing MVMCP with the kids for the first time this year, but have done MNSSHP a few times with them. DD13, DD9 and DS 5. We still do our early run the day of the party, but go back to the hotel before lunch and rest until dinner, we then have a nice sit down dinner in CP or Chef Mickey and then head into the park for the party.
We ALWAYS sleep in the next morning. Have fun!
We are planning on sleeping in on the day of our MNSSHP and ALSO the day after. We consider MNSSHP evening a park day because we intend on being there the WHOLE time. So we will take it really easy on the day of and sleep in the day after.
Last year for MNSSHP we slept in the morning of with DS2.5 and had a mellow day of shopping at DTD and staying around the hotel. He was still wide awake and on his "second wind" at 11pm! We slept in the day after too.
We are planning a similar strategy this year for MVMCP when he will be 3.5.
We are arriving the night before so the day of the MVMCP is our 1st touring day. We planned to go to the MK anyways so we will go early- for 9:00 am opening and stay all day. We are going to eat at CP at 4:30 so we will relax from 4-7 and then party on!!
This is what our family does. Each trip we have a non park day where we just relax by the pool, do some shopping and just take a very leisure pace and mosey around and do what we feel.
We usually make our MVMCP day our MK day, we have a few rides that are MUST do so we don't need to do everything when we go. Since we can unofficialy arrive at the MK after 4 with our party ticket, we sleep in that morning, relax by the pool and then head over about 4 to the party. The day after our MVMCP is our non park day where we sleep in and then do the leisure activities that we feel.
We went last Dec. On our MVMCP day we didn't sleep in, but we had an easy day...spent time at our resort and at DTD. We ended up staying till the end of the party, even though that wasn't our plan. Our youngest (20 months then) fell asleep and our other two (ages 4 and 6) were happy as clams so we just kept going. They didn't get sleepy until we were on the bus ride back to the resort. We had a sound Disney sleep that night and definitely slept in the next morning. It worked out well!
