Which narrator will you be seeing this year?

Whoopie!

 

[MichiganScott]

We get that you're excited, but really, which narrator will you be seeing?

Anyone have any input on the MVMCP for me. Our DD is 3 (4 the week after we come back). She is pretty regimented on her schedule but will stay up late if needed but gets hyper with each passing second. What's the general consensus on the party? we are looking at a Sunday night right after Thanksgiving. Is is really busy and crowded at the parties? Is it hard to get a good spot for the fireworks and parade? Also curious about the wait for the characters. I know she would really like meeting Grumpy and some of the princes. I heard they accompany their princesses at the party. Thanks!!

Planning to bring my DS2 early December so I'm on the same boat. I think the most important part for me is the fireworks and parade. I know it's harder to get a spot for the first parade and easier to find a spot at frontier land compared to Main Street. Other than this, I saw someone else post that someone (you or your DH)can stand in line to wait for the seven dwarves and the rest of your group can join after. The line up for that is looooonggg.

My daughter will be 4 when we go. I'm hoping she can stay up and not be grumpy. She's usually good when there's a lot going on. Once the parties start in November, we should know a lot more about the character waits. You can look on Kennythepirate or wdwprepschool to see what they were like last year. They both had pretty good write-ups on the parties.

We just extended our trip by two days during free dining. We see new arriving 12/11-19 and staying at ASMu. We've never stayed at an All Star resort, but I hope we didn't make a bad decision, but extending the trip wouldn't be.

Extending the trip is never a bad idea! You guys are going to have a great time!

We are going to be taking our son (turning 3 a couple days after vacation) to WDW and are planning on taking at least a two or three hour 'rest' and 'nap' break during the afternoon to let him build his energy back up.

Every family is different, and every child is different - of course! But I suggest to take a few hours break each day at the resort and that might help your toddler's overall stamina throughout the night. My baby hates to take naps during the day right now, but I know that he absolutely needs one or he'll be a hellion after a few hours of staying up.

We opted not to do the party when we went when my daughter was 4. If we had gone, I would have planned nothing else but hanging at the resort pool for that day. I tried the nap thing with my 3 kids on that trip, they were 7,6,3 at the time and it just made everyone miserable dragging them out of the parks and then transitioning them back and no one napped anyway. So it depends on you your kid, really.

We are changing our reservations - we switched from Pop to Saratoga Springs. Same dates, though! Hope everyone had a great 4th of July in the states!

My Family stayed at Saratoga this past April- Your gonna love this place!

I'll come back and update the first page tonight or tomorrow...LOVE all the new friends we're getting around here!

My family has all started playing Pokemon Go, and we can't wait to try it out in the parks in December. Unfortunately, the app kept messing up today, and a rainstorm stopped our Pokemon hunt short after lunch, but we're still excited.
Anyone else sucked into that madness?? LOL!!

That's hilarious that you mention that, because I was just told by my husband/kids to download the game. So, yep. Sucked in lol. At least it gets people up and moving around!

I want to know about this Pokemon go stuff too. My son hasn't mentioned it but it's only a matter of time before he watches a video on it & wants to play.
