Park Spotlight: 5 Attractions Your Toddler Can't Miss at Walt Disney World
Taking your toddler to Walt Disney World is such an exciting time! Seeing their little face as they experience all the Disney firsts, Cinderella Castle, Festival of Fantasy parade, Happily Ever After fireworks, meeting their favorite character and of course the attractions! There are so many great attractions for them to enjoy at each park but as I made this list I found that my top 5 were all at Magic Kingdom park, this probably doesn't come as much of a surprise. They are

If you have elementary school aged children, I encourage you to check out this little gem that is an oasis of sanity! I learned to really appreciate it when I took my grandson Wesley. First, a little background The

Park Spotlight: Disney's Family Magic Tour
One of Magic Kingdom’s best kept secrets would be Disney’s Family Magic Tour! During our last Walt Disney World family vacation we decided to step outside the box and try something new. We looked around at a few tours that Disney offered and landed our decision on the Family Magic Tour.
The number one selling factor was the price! $39.00 per person for a guided tour around Disney seemed unreal so we booked it! Please keep in mind that this tour is best suitable for children

Park Spotlight: Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me~ Check out "The Pirates League"
Yo ho ho!!! Calling all pirates!! One of Disney's Best Kept Secrets (in my opinion) is The Pirates League.

Aspiring Pirates must be at least 3 years of age and adults are welcome as well. There are many packages to choose from and no worries if your daughter does
