Hi there Joanna, and welcome to planDisney! I’m so glad you’ve stopped by to see us! I would be so happy to help you plan your very first family vacation to Walt Disney World. What an amazing occasion for you!
There is nothing quite like viewing videos with information about the Walt Disney World resort to get you prepared and excited for a vacation! My first recommendation would be the
Video Library right on the planDisney website! There, you will find an array of fun, informational videos recorded by some of our very own panelists! Each
Theme Park will be highlighted in several videos, as well as
Disney Springs and so much more! Also, there is a brand new planDisney Instagram page, where you can find many informative posts about the latest happenings in and around the Disney Parks. Plus, many of our current panelists have been answering Guest questions right on Instagram stories. If you submit one, you could have it answered as well!
Additionally, I always like to recommend
Disney+ for amazing Walt Disney World content. The Imagineering Story is an amazingly in-depth look at the creation of the Disney Theme Parks. The Magic Of Disney’s Animal Kingdom is an incredibly in-depth look at that Theme Park in partnership with National Geographic. One Day At Disney is a documentary that explores the lives of Cast Members that work at Walt Disney World.
Otherwise, the Walt Disney World website is a great resource! Just navigate to each Theme Park’s website, and you will find loads of information at your fingertips! Plus, check out the
Tickets & Visit Guide for even more details on each location! When you're finally there, make sure that you visit Guest Relations upon entry into any Theme Park to claim your First Visit pins, which will commemorate this momentous occasion!
Joanna, I hope that this information helps you continue to plan and dream of that special first visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth. If you have specific questions about how to structure your vacation, please come back and see us!
Happy planning!
Clara
