Also. Do the DVC kiosks have the posters still for the day? I forgot to grab them there or at the AP place this morning. I'm sure they are out for AP for the day. DH was stung by a wasp so we had to come back to the resort for a bit and are heading back later for our dinner

no idea. But you can always ask

Thanks! That's what I was thinking but couldn't remember.

I'll swing by and check. If not. I'll just go tomorrow to pick them up.

Has anyone done the sign ups for Padawan Mind Challenge?
Curious to know how big of demand there was for that line at rope drop, and how quickly the slots fill up.
Also curious to know about how many kiddos they sign up for each show.

We plan to go there asap on our day (weekend IV) but I haven't heard any reports from people who have done it yet.

thanks so much!

I am interested in knowing this as well.

We didn't sign up, but my son's friend did. He made a dash there like people do JTA. His mom told us to go straight there because it fills up fast.

AP posters for each week

Best costumes I saw in the park. Wish I could've got a pic of the front

I saw them too in the rebels show. She had put a cool cloth on his head to cool him down. They were amazing!

Were first in line at the tapstiles, dh did the chewie run so got a great spot while we signed up, went to Darth mall, sci fi breakfast, great last minute spot for the parade, rode star tours, saw Muppets, now doing jta!!!!

So I have Deluxe Premium Feel the Force with the family tomorrow. What time should we check in. Is 9AM too early or just about right? That gets us reserved seating for ALL shows, correct?

My kids are 7 (girl) and 9 (boy). What shows are must-see shows, and what should we skip, in everyone's opinions? I want to make the most of our time.

I need some late-minute tips!

Thanks!

Ethan

9am is too early , IMHO. The actual area doesn't open until 10am and they've added umbrellas this weekend so it will be a lot better.
Yes, the DPP includes all the shows. Rebels is the most kid oriented, but all of them have a lot of talking with the guest about their experiences. My Short Story is fun as well, much less about SW and more about Davis's career. You only know how long the kids can tolerate sitting down in one spot. SotS has the awesome pre show, I wouldn't miss that

@ethanwa

Just my opinion, if you have not been to them in the past, they are all must see shows. Have a great time!!

Although I would normally agree, with two young kids on a hot day that's probably not possible. That is why I must pick and choose.
