How to Survive Disney??

Question

We are going to disney world for the first time with two seven year old girls (there twins) for 3 days how do we survive we are going in october! Help!!

Answer 1

Sweet I think that during October the Haunted Mansion is turned into the Nightmare Before Christmas. Just have fun and try to entertain the girls. Like go on some rides that they might not want to go on and show them that they're not scary or whatever.

Answer 2

be sure to wear comfortable socks & sneakers.  

drink lots of water.  

go when the park opens - hit the big rides first.

be sure to hit the shows - they're a good way to have a nice relaxing sit down in the AC.

be prepared to wait in lines, but make them an adventure for the girls.

get yourself a Birmbaum WDW guide - great tips there.

Have fun!

:O)

Answer 3

october is perfect! good choice.

im an annual pass holder so heres some suggestions from a frequent visitor.

- going to see a live show is a great time to have a snack and cool down during the hot afternoon sun

- eat breakfast in your room to save money, try some cereal and milk that comes in juice box sized containers.

- make sure you check the boards that let you know the wait times on the rides, it will be helpful in deciding which way to start walking around the park.

- hit all the attractions you want in that area and try not to skip from one spot to another, its best to keep going in one directions to save time and maximize the fun.

- make sure to drink enough fluids, cranky kids are often dehydrated

Ride/Show recommendations:

Magic Kingdom: parades, 3 mountain rides, goofys barnstormer, stage shows. skip swiss family tree house

Animal Kingdom: expedition everest, dinoland, take the train to the ecofriendly center, safarri. skip the nemo show

Epcot: great fireworks, test track, soarin is the best. skip mexico ride

Hollywood Studios: tower of terror, HSM pep rally, lights camera action show, and rockin rollar coaster. skip the parade.

Answer 4

Do a little research so you will know what will interest them and you will have a bit of a plan.  My favorite site for planning is: http://www.allearsnet.com

It's a great site.  You might also like to buy a guidebook or two and let your girls pick out some things they want to do.

Disney is so fun, especially with kids that age.  Everything will be amazing to them.  Have a great time!

Answer 5

First research find which parks will appeal to your girls magic kingdom is a must lots of rides then choose 1 more park do 2 parks instead of all 4. Going to the disney site you can get a check list for rides it is great so you know what you want to ride. Limit your daughters souvenirs mickey or minnie ears are $20 and a sweatshirt is about $30 have a total budget of 50 dollars. buy a refillable water bottle and fill back up at water fountains. let each girl bring a small backpack and put a CHEAP cd player and maybe a burned CD this way if it gets lost it is not a big one plus this will keep you entertained during waits. Fast passes are great! Do research and have fun with it!

Answer 6

I suggest making sure the kids are happy and leaning towards them more on making decisions like what rides to go on. Disney is a great experience that your children will always remember. The most important thing, do everything in your power to keep the magic alive :)
