[QUOTE="KateM, post: 125925, member: 1973"] TM, I'm so excited for you -- our family loves Disney! We were last there in May 2006.Planning a trip is half the fun for me, so I did alot of reading and checking out online sites Here are two of my favorites: [url]http://www.disboards.com/[/url] [url]http://allearsnet.com/[/url] I highly recommend the Unofficial Guide for Families/ with Kids. A few tips -- For the convenience and "the magic", we love staying onsight. We always stay at Port Orleans French Quarter (moderate resort). Refrigerators are standard in the deluxe and moderates; they're available for rent at the value resorts. We always had breakfast in our room that we had packed. Each family member wore fanny packs with a water bottle holder and packed snacks for the day. We ate some lunches at the hotel (Pb&J brought from home) and some lunches at the counter service resturaunts in the parks. We would get into the parks as they were opening, stay until 1pm, come back to the hotel for a swim (and nap for parents!), then go back until the parks closed. We ate dinner in the parks. We went through AAA, but you may want to book soon as they have a limited # of rooms in the resorts. We flew Southwestern for a great rate! The Dining Plan offers a ton of food. It may be a good value for you, but we found it cheaper to dine as listed above. Definitely bring water bottles and refill them at the many fountains. As far as souvineers (sp?), the kids brought their own spending money (even at Duckie's age), so they thought carefully about their choices. I have read that some parents load up on Disney trinkets at the Dollar Store and then dole out one per day while at wife. Have fun!! [/QUOTE]
