Traveling to Disney World with kids might seem intimidating, but Disney makes it so easy for families with kids of all ages to enjoy their vacation together. Disney World is one of the most family-friendly vacation destinations in the world. Staying DVC is great for families with children because the spacious villas and multiple bedrooms makes it easy for families to put kids to bed and have restful mid-day breaks from the parks. Even the pools at DVC resorts are set up for families to enjoy. Many pools have kid-friendly splash playgrounds or wading pools, with some even having playgrounds nearby. If you are traveling to Disney World with your family then be sure to check out these 5 kid-friendly resort pools at DVC resorts.
