Hi Chester,
Thanks for visiting planDisney! I can imagine you're already counting down the days until your vacation at
Walt Disney World Resort!
Each of us here at the planDisney panel loves to share tips and ideas from our own Disney vacations as a way to help you plan your trip.
While planning DVDs and catalogs aren't mailed out the way they once were, I'm happy to share that there are lots of fun planning resources available to involve your younger Mousketeers in the planning process.
The first fun planning tip is to download the theme park guide maps that are available online. What better way to help the kids plan their path around a theme park to experience their favorite attractions than mapping out all the magic. You can find the theme park guide maps at these links:
Magic Kingdom Guide Map,
EPCOT Guide Map,
Disney's Hollywood Studios Guide Map, and
Disney's Animal Kingdom Guide Map.
Another fun planning resource is the
My Disney Experience mobile app. First, the interactive maps make for a fun way to explore all of Walt Disney World Resort.
You can find even more fun in the mobile app with the new Attraction-in Motion Videos. Imagine, for example, the thrill of taking "The Wildest Ride in the Wilderness" on
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (always one of my favorite must-do attractions!) or traveling by boat through Pandora's wonderous and captivating rainforest on
Na'vi River Journey. These attraction videos offer an exciting peek at the magic awaiting you in the theme parks.
One more fun resource I'll mention is the
planDisney Video Library where we panelists share tips and ideas to help make your experience more magical. You can also
follow planDisney panelists on social media for even more tips, ideas, and updates.
Chester, here's wishing you all the fun as you plan your Walt Disney World Resort vacation.
Enjoy lots of Disney magic in your day today!
Jerry
