    Dear moms panel, we will be visiting Disney world on 5-15 October, and my son's 12th birthday is on the 8th October. Do you have any suggestion to celebrate a preteen boy ☺️. Thank you very much..

    Hi Francisca,

    Welcome to Disney Parks Moms Panel. It's great and magical opportunity being able to spend a birthday at Walt Disney World Resort. I have two suggestions for you: the first one, would be a night safari at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge. The trek begins as you climb aboard a sturdy, open-sided safari vehicle. Feel the rumble as it departs into the midst of the evening, with only one goal in mind: to explore the savanna and its many animal inhabitants in all their nocturnal glory. For about an hour, he will be able to spot giraffes, ostriches, zebras and many others using a night vision goggles. Sounds fun, right?  Boys, at this age, find it a radical adventure and liked a lot. Reservations are required. My other suggestion is to let him spend a few hours at DisneyQuest, a kind of giant arcade with the latest technological innovations. Many games, simulators and interactivity. He will love it! I When at Downtown Disney have a sandwich at the Earl of Sandwich, he will be surprised with the size and also with the variety. It's delicious!

    Have a magical day!

    Warm hugs.
