Hi Danielle,
Thank you for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. Congratulations on receiving the Free Dining Special Offer, it can be such a great deal!
Since your our son is only 2 years old, he will not require a ticket and he will not be included in the
Dining Plan either. What this means is that he will be allowed to eat from your plate at Table-Service or Quick-Service Dining Locations, but if you would like to select something different for him, you will need to pay for his meals separately. If you are at a buffet, he will be allowed to eat from the buffet at no additional cost.
When my daughter was younger, I found that what worked for us was to share an adult meal and then use a snack to make sure we both had enough to eat. The meals are typically larger portions so I never felt like we didn’t have enough to eat. Sometimes, for us, it was just easier to purchase an extra kids meal, so that we both had a meal we were happy with.
I hope you have a fabulous time at Walt Disney World Resort, Danielle. Please let us know if you have any other questions, we are always happy to help.
Stephanie
