Travel with the Whitakers

Disney World is the perfect vacation for those with kids of all ages – and even those that don’t have kids, but re kids at heart. Each age group will love some experiences more than others, but no matter what you, and your kids, will love your trip. Our family is currently right in the middle of the toddler and preschooler phase. And that means that we know all about experiencing the magic of Disney with an adventurous toddler. (We’ll also be experiencing the parks with a baby again on our next trip, too.) Toddlers and preschoolers truly believe in the magic, and it’s so much fun to see everything from their point of view. So far we’ve covered Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Epcot, and today we have for you the best toddler and preschooler experiences at Hollywood Studios. Characters – Just like the other three parks Hollywood Studios has no shortage of unique characters. You’re little ones can meet Disney Junior favorites like Jake and Sofia, Chewbacca, Kylo Ren and BB-8 fro

Besides seeing the world while only having to unpack once per trip, the best part of cruising is the food! And there are so many amazing dining option aboard the Disney Cruise Line ships. If you’re looking for a lot of variety and something that will satisfy even the most picky eater for breakfast and lunch then Cabanas is the place for you. Cabanas is the buffet restaurant on all four of Disney’s ships. It is open as a buffet for breakfast and lunch, and serves a sit-down meal for dinner for those that don’t wish to dine in the main dining rooms. On the Disney Wonder Cabanas has a beach theme with bright colors, beach umbrellas and chairs patterned like beach towels. The entrance also features art with characters from Finding Dory. There is indoor and outdoor seating, both offer amazing views of the sea and/or the port that you’re in. You can also, should you wish, take your food with you to somewhere on the ship – including the movie theater! Unlike some buffets you can

It has been a while, so you might not remember, but we talked about the best experiences for toddlers and preschoolers at Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom. Today we have for you the best experiences for this age group at Epcot. I know quite a few people that think that Epcot doesn’t have much to offer for littles ones and because of these they skip this park. Each park has things that I love, but Epcot is my favorite because there is so much to experience in one place. At Epcot you can see art, learn about, and eat food from eleven different counties. You can travel around the world in a day! World Showcase is my favorite place to snack at Disney World. Epcot as a whole does, in fact, have a lot to offer for Disney goers of all ages. This park is especially great for those that like to learn, but not realize they’re learning because they’re having fun, eat, and meet characters. So, what exactly does Epcot have to offer for toddlers and preschoolers? Let’s find out… Charac

We’re back! We have not disappeared. We know it has been quite some time since we last posted, and for that we apologize. Right after our last post I was starting to get this one organized when our littlest Disney fan – Isabella – was born four weeks early. So with a new baby, that had to spend some time in the hospital, as well as a class that took over my life for the last two months writing for fun was pushed to the side. The class is over now and things are clam and we have found our new normal so I finally have some time to sit down and share some Disney love with you. Today we have for you an overview of Pirate Night on our last two sailings on the Disney Wonder. (For those that don’t remember or haven’t read previous posts, our last two cruises were back to back.) We’re going to talk about Pirate Night as a whole, the Pirate theme in the Main Dining Rooms, the Pirates in the Caribbean Deck Party, and the Pirate Buffet. Throughout the day on Pirate Night you have th
