Hi, I would say if your kids are usually really impatient (as all kids are) then you should probably skip it. However, last year I was planning to skip it but my 7 year old seemed very intent on riding despite the line (about an hour) and it was no problem. He even made a friend while waiting...

Is there anywhere at the Poly that’s a good place to use DDP snack credits on breakfast items (muffins, bagels, coffee, etc.)? Last time we visited staying at GF we had club level, but this time it’s a bit out of our budget, so I’m trying to figure out the best way to use snack credits for...

I would say it’s definitely a good idea to tell him a few days before if he might not remember much about your last trip, our 7 year old loved being part of the planning (even though we’d done most of it already)! Get him excited about the parks and characters, maybe watch some Disney movies he...

Hi, Not sure how long your car ride will be, but we regularly take 4-6 hour car rides with a 7 and 11 year old. I would recommend looking into some kid-friendly audiobook/stories (maybe look into some Disney themed ones?). Then if they have a short attention span, they can color at the same...

Hi, thanks everyone for the responses. I understand that purposely showing up late is never really a good idea, this was our worst case scenario. Luckily I was able to get earlier reservations! We are split up with 2 tables 11:10 and 11:20 (I’ll just call ahead and ask if we can be seated close...

Yes, this reservation kind of was our backup plan as of right now. I have active searches open on the Touring Plans reservation finder for earlier times and other restaurants so hopefully something will come through for one of those. We might also let the kids stay outside and watch the...

Ok, good to know that they won’t charge if you show up late even if they can’t seat you. Thanks!

Hi, My family of 7 is going to WDW for the week around New Years. I read that you have a higher chance on getting into parks getting close to capacity (as long as its not stage 4) if you will be staying on site and have a dining reservation within that park. We will be going to Epcot late in...

My family will be at Disney this year from December 30th to January 5th. For NYE, we were planning to spend the morning at AK (least crowds) and head back to the Poly in the late afternoon before going to Epcot late night for fireworks (hoping the parks wont be closed). I have two questions...

We used the dining plan at WDW this past February, and I thought it was a good deal for our group of 7 with kids/teenagers that eat a lot of food. So I’m not sure exactly what you mean about you can’t get the dining plan for just you (are you worried it’s too much food or is the cost too much?)...

Okay, thanks! Good to know about the possibility of parks closing on the 30th too, now I can create a backup plan in case we can’t get into MK that day.

Hi, So my family of 7 (two adults, an 18 y/o, a 16 year old, 11 y/o, 7 y/o, and 5 y/o) will be spending 12/30 - 1/5 at WDW this year. I have been trying to plan New Years Eve for what we will do, and here’s what I’m thinking (opinions/advice on changing the plan would be helpful!) The day...

Thanks for all the replies! I think we might spend the morning and early afternoon at AK, since what I found online says it’s the least crowded for NYE, and head to Epcot around 9:00 at night (hopefully then some people with younger kinds will be leaving). If we can’t get in to Epcot that late...

Sorry in advance, this question is kind of long. I could use some help from WDW veterans (who generally visit around winter holidays) for how to plan my upcoming trip. My family of 7 - we have a range of ages, from a toddler to an 18 year old - will be staying at the Polynesian Village from...

Thanks for your replies! The crowds expected, but hopefully it will be manageable and I’ve booked Fast Passes and dining reservations already. Does anyone know if the pools will be open (and warm enough to swim in?) We have park hoppper plus which will work for water parks and I know typhoon...

We will be staying at a Disney World Resort on President’s Day week this year (the 17th - 24th) Can anyone tell from experience what to expect when it comes to weather and crowds? Thanks!

Hi, Will be on a 6 night stay at a Disney Resort in February and have one day planned at Universal (with access to both parks). Since we will have a wide range of ages, what would you say are the best rides for older kids, younger kids, and a few that everyone will like? Also, how many rides do...

Hi, Will be going to Disney in February with a 4 year old, 7 year old, 10 year old, 15 year old, an 17 year old. Anyone have some recommendations for rides that all ages will enjoy?
