Many guests traveling to Disney World with their very young children are nervous about the upcoming experience. Disney World is the perfect vacation destination for toddlers and preschoolers, and with its many accommodations for families you will find that there is nothing to be nervous about at all! Disney World is a magical vacation destination for adults and kids alike. If you are wishing for a magical trip then there are plenty of opportunities for pixie dust throughout the parks and resorts. So, if you have an upcoming vacation to Disney World with your toddler or preschooler then consider these tips on making Disney extra magical!

Order An In-Room Surprise

Is there a more magical way to begin your Disney vacation than with an in-room surprise? Guests of Disney resorts can place an order with In-Room Floral and Gifts which is Disney’s official in-room surprise supplier. Guests can choose a gift for any occasion with baskets containing plushies, Mickey ears, sweet treats, balloons, and more. Interested guests should place their order several weeks in advance of their vacation in order to ensure the gift is able to arrive on time.

Schedule A Wake Up Call

Did you know that you can get a call from Mickey or other Disney friends to wake you up in the morning? Guests staying at a Disney resort can use their resort phone to schedule a wake up call at whatever time is convenient for them. Follow the prompts over the phone to choose your character and message, and then wait for the call. Have your little one pick up the phone so they have a magical experience they won’t soon forget!

Reservations At Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique

Do you have a princess or prince in your family? A reservation at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom is a great way to add additional magic to your vacation. This experience is for guests ages 3-12 and allows them to transform into the princess or prince of their dreams. Guests can choose from several different packages that range in price from $99.95 to $450.00. There are a variety of princess dresses or prince/knight costumes to choose from. Depending on the package chosen, your little one will have their hair styled, some light makeup, nail art, and pixie dust (glitter). After their transformation your little one will be able to take princess photos with a Photopass Photographer so you will be able to capture the memories forever.

Character Meals

A character dining experience is not only a great way to add additional magic to your toddler or preschoolers vacation, but also an easy way to see your favorite Disney characters in a low stress enviroment. Guests will have the opportunity to meet and greet their favorite characters while they enjoy air-conditioning and great food. Some of our favorite restaurants for character dining with small children are Crystal Palace with Winnie the Pooh and friends, Chef Mickey’s with the “Fab Five”, Akershus Royal Banquet Hall with the princesses, and Hollywood and Vine’s Disney Jr. breakfast.
