    When Planning Please Consider using a Disney TA (Kingdom Konsultant) to support them during this tough time.

    Kingdom Konsultant Agent Katie here! Thank you for the kind words about our agency @monothingie and @wdwmagic. I’m so proud to work with this amazing team. We can’t wait to see everyone traveling again soon.

    BCV or BRV?

    We’ve stayed at both (studio at BRV a few years ago and one bedroom at BCV last April). While Wilderness Lodge and Beach Club are two of our favorite resorts, I’d pick BCV before BRV. The furnishings are newer, the walk into Epcot is amazing, the pool is spectacular if weather allows, and we did...

    WDW with a 2 year old...

    Both of my kids’ first trips were before they turned 3 (daughter was still 2, son was just turning 1). I loved taking them that small and we’ve been many times since. Kids under 3 are free. There are many tips to having an enjoyable vacation with a little one — renting a stroller, blocked out...

    Favorite WDW restaurants for kids

    If you’re interested in Chef Mickey’s I’d recommend Tusker House at Animal Kingdom. It includes Mickey and friends in their safari gear and the food is really good. We do love Ohana for dinner... It’s the only restaurant we’re repeating on our next trip (although Sanaa almost got re-booked...

    Leaving the kids at home?

    Yes!! I’d taken my kids on Disney vacations several times (and as you noted, you’ve taken yours a few times too) before our adults only trip so I really didn’t feel too guilty. It’s so nice to experience the parks, dining, etc at your own leisure — obviously a totally different experience. We...

    How do you rank the lands in Magic Kingdom, and what is the best land? (poll)

    Fantasyland when my kids are with me which is how I voted. Main Street USA when I’m solo!

    How to handle the Wet and Rain?

    I don’t leave home without a stash of $1 ponchos! I definitely use them on Splash Mountain and Kali River Rapids while my family rolls their eyes at me, lol. I find flip-flops/sandals to be best in the rain. I can’t stand wet socks!

    What Is Your Favorite Ride And/Or Attraction ❓

    I think I’d have to say Big Thunder Mountain ... at night! Edited to add: 👆 at WDW. Radiator Springs Racers is my all-time fave!

    Best strolling option for a 4 & 6 year old

    I think your best bet would be to rent a double stroller from a third party. Kingdom Strollers is my preference. It’s much less than $31ish a day, too, and what you get is much better quality than renting one in the parks. Plus depending on where your room is located you might need it at the...

    Best Character meal for kids 8 and 5?

    My kids are 8 and almost 5 ... we love Ohana for breakfast, too; some of our other favorites are Tusker House at Animal Kingdom, Bon Voyage Adventure Breakfast at Boardwalk Inn and 1900 Park Fare for dinner at Grand Floridian. We’re also excited to try the new Storybook Dining at Artist Point on...

    Stroller vs soft baby carrier

    I also like a combination of both a carrier and stroller. You can take the baby in the Ergo on some attractions, which is really helpful when they’re sleeping, and the stroller is nice to hold the bags, for the baby when it gets hot, even for the 5 year old as needed. I also suggest renting one...

    O’hana vs chef mickeys for breakfast

    We’ve enjoyed breakfast at both restaurants, but I would choose Ohana since you’ve never dined there. We also like that the food is brought to the table there vs going up to a buffet. The girls will probably like seeing Lilo, too!

    Which Resort is best for kids 6 & 2

    I have a 3 and 7 year old, and our collective favorite has been Animal Kingdom Lodge during the Christmas season. We also really like Wilderness Lodge, especially during the holidays. The kids, of course, loved Art of Animation - we stayed in a Cars suite. Outside of those favorites and in the...

    Infant and naps

    We’ve visited with my son as young as almost 1, and he also was at two naps a day. His morning nap we did in the stroller or Ergo (highly recommend an ergo/other carrier for naps and waiting in lines), and then we went back to the resort after lunch for afternoon naps. With my kids at ages 3.5...

    Tusker House vs. Sanaa: Pros and Cons

    I vote Tusker House in your situation! It’s one of our favorite character meals for food quality and character interaction. It’ll also be more convenient for you, and a great way to kick off your vacation with the kids/characters. That said, I really loved lunch at Sanaa too so I don’t think you...

    Recommendations for resort character breakfast

    We love Ohana breakfast (at the Polynesian) and 1900 Park Fare dinner (at Grand Floridian). I’m currently stalking a reservation for the new Bon Voyage breakfast at Trattoria Al Forno (at Boardwalk) for an upcoming last-minute trip!

    What kind of shape is Art of Animation in?

    @CaptainAmerica We stayed at AoA in a Cars Suite in March, as part of a split stay coming from the Polynesian (in a studio villa). We loved it! My son (3.5) is obsessed with Cars as well and talks about going back to “Radiator Springs” all the time! I’ve also stayed at other deluxe and moderate...

    No, I didn't think that. Thank you!

    Trip Report From the Poly to "Radiator Springs" - Our First Split Stay!

    I didn't want to point out that I wasn't using my kids' photos because I didn't want to start an issue, since this forum/report is about our WDW trip. But to answer your question, my concern is that online photos can be easily saved/re-used without permission, so I'm just a little selective...
