Stroller & tickets question...

[Mbcalebd]

first...my kids are 5, 6,6, & 9, we dont use a stroller anymore but I am wondering for disney would it be good to bring one? or is it more of a pain to mess with? Was thinking maybe even if they didnt want to ride in it would it be good to haul around our stuff in like drinks snacks? or better just to carry a bag? also...has anyone bought tickets from disneyfuntickets.com? They seem cheaper and will deliver to your hotel. we are leaving on friday so just need to get these last few things taken care of. Thanks...any advice would be great!

I don't know about the ticket website. The stroller thing on the other hand you could bring one or maybe consider renting a double stroller. Usually I would say bring your own b/c you can leave the parks w/ it and it really helps to have it while waiting for the bus and at the resort when you get off of the bus and they are asleep. If you don't have a stroller and don't want to buy one but you can as mentioned before rent from disney you also have the option to rent offsite at www.abbf.com If you decide to rent from disney the double stroller would probably hold you three younger ones or you could consider two and that would cover all of them and your belongings and anything else you may pick up on the way.

We just returned last week. I have 2 dd's ages 5 and 7 - we rented a double stroller every day. They both don't use them at home at all, but walking around Disney is way too much for their little legs. You can rent for the whole week at once, on the first visit and then you bypass all of the lines for the rest of the week and just walk right up to the counter to pick up your stroller each day by showing your tickets. We probably didn't need one at MGM, but the other three parks - if you plan on spending a lot of time there, a stroller will help a lot. It wasn't that bad navigating, and it made holding all of our stuff a lot easier also.

My kids are very small 6 & 7 yo. I always get a stroller so they can take a break from walking. Also, the little one has asthma, and the summer heat just does her in without being able to sit occasionally. It's also very nice to be able to put our stuff in it and not have to carry everything.

We haven't used a stroller at Disney with the kids since they were 4. I couldn't imagine trying to keep 4 kids together and deal with a double stroller. It is a pain to have one and much more freeing not to have to bother, and with 4 kids I'm sure you will be walking at their pace and going on a lot of rides which means lots of breaks from walking. You don't have any babies so what you will have to carry will be limited since you won't need diapers or changes of clothes. I certainly wouldn't star out renting one, save the money for a snack and if you absolutely have to there available. The cost of a double would buy a snack for all the kids.

It all really depends. I have a DS 4(at the time) we did the week long stroller, and probably will again this year. I liked that we can walk and have him in the stroller knowing were he was while walking. He was able to go all day because he was sooo tired from walking. We had a place to put stuff and drinks. He had a seat for some parades.



I have a few med problems so it was nice to be able to push the stroller and had that to lean on.

You can always try the first few days and see how it goes. You can always rent if you need to.
