If you want to pay that much for them to eat kids meals, it will cover it. I'm 20 and rarely eat from an adult menu. It's a LOT of food. We don't do the dining plan because we are always sharing meals or getting the smallest portions available.

As you live in Mandeville, please be aware that your local, "normal" portions of food equals the amount of food contained in 3 meals anywhere else in the US..... :ROFLOL:

I'm the same way - I get kids portions sometimes just because I don't eat a lot. That's another reason we never do the dining plan.
jasonk - your dining plan will cover kids meals, even if it's an adult meal plan. But like Lucky said, it just probably isn't going to be worth it for you to be on the dining plan because you'll end up paying for more than your family is eating.

Pay for the less expensive kids meals out of pocket, use the dining plan for your adult meals and go to extra sit down meals! Yumm

If they're on the Dining Plan, they could conceivably ask if the two kids can share a single Adult meal. (They'd just have to pay for a second beverage out-of-pocket) You'd then have those extra meal credits for additional meals, or to double-up for a Signature restaurant.

A very good piece of advice. Getting a kids meal with an adult TS credit is a big loss for a guest.

Seasons
In fact, during our recent visit to WDW, we had lunch at Seasons (near Soarin'). My almost-teen daughter was an "adult" on the Disney Dining Plan (DDP). She prefered to get a child's meal, but they would not let her. They said it would mess up their accounting or something and that one could only get an "adult" meal with the adult DDP voucher.
While we did find something for her to eat, we ended up wasting so much food because of the adult-size meal. Seems Disney should be more responsible than this, IMHO.
So I don't know if this is common practice or not - seems it shouldn't matter since you've paid for the more expensive of the two options (adult vs child) - be aware that this has happened in the past - at least once.
Good Luck!

It is not. As a general rule an adult ordering a child's meal and using an adult dining credit is typically no big deal. Now an adult ordering and paying for a child's TS meal can be up to the discretion of the restaurant.
