My top ten for a first Disneyland trip

[Cbowman]

I recently went with friends who've never been to Disneyland with kids. I thought it'd be helpful to have a top ten list for those new to Disneyland. Especially since the busy months are fast approaching!

Would love to here more tips too!

I've taken a few newbies myself, if possible I usually try to persuade them to go during low seasons on a weekday in order to try and take in as much as possible

I listed things that are not rides....because I assume you'll do as many as you can.

1. Get a "1st visit" button from Town Hall.
2. Look for characters in town square....they are usually out at rope drop.
3. Get a picture of the Partners statue at the hub.
4. Get a family picture in front of the castle.
5. Enjoy a Dole Whip!
6. Ride the double decker bus up Main Street
7. If they get tired, ride the train around the park.
8. Maybe start pin trading....its a great way to interact with cast members!
9. Parades!!
10. Fireworks!!!

I could keep going....

Fireworks! So Cal weather hasn't been on our side our last three trips. We've missed them almost every night!
