Hi there, Tina!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
The first trip to Walt Disney World is sure to the best time ever and leave lasting memories! I'm so excited for your family!
Disney gift cards a the perfect present for anyone visiting this magical place. When my family visits, we are sure to bring along Disney gift cards. While there, the gift cards can be used throughout all of the theme parks, resorts, and Disney Springs. Your daughter, husband, and grandchildren can use them for food, souvenirs, theme park tickets, and anything else their heart desires while they are at Walt Disney World. There's no limit to where the Disney gift cards can be used, while at Disney.
Depending on what type food and restaurants your family like to eat, meals can cost anywhere from $15/person to $80 or more/person. Quick service meals are less expensive, while character meals, signature dining, and dinner shows cost closer to the $80/person mark, but some cost a bit less than that. The best way to help budget for food is to sit down with your family and talk about what type of meals they would enjoy while on their Disney vacation.
