Welcome to the Moms Panel Catherine!
I can't think of a better place to celebrate a 5th birthday than Disney World! Be sure to pick up a "Happy Birthday" button for both of them at your resort or any theme park Guest Relations location. Its a great way to draw attention to their special day.
Book a character meal. When making any advanced dining reservations (ADRs), be sure to mention that you'll be celebrating 2 birthdays. You can request a celebration cake when you arrive for any ADRs. You can also order a special birthday cake by calling 407-827-2253. ADRs are required & cakes must be ordered at least 48 hours prior to your reservation.
For a personal touch, contact the Disney Floral & Gifts Department. They can help with an in-room celebration or a special delivery to a dining location. Visit them online at
www.disneyflorist.com or call them at 407-WDW-GIFT.

If he loves Star Wars, you could plan to visit Disney's Hollywood Studios (DHS) & check out their Star Wars themed attractions:
