chEARs Catherine, thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel. It sounds like you are about to win the Grandmom of the Year Award when you purchase Walt Disney World tickets for your family!
One of the best advantages of
living close to the Mouse is the
fantastic discounts to be had on
Disney Theme Park tickets, and I love that you want to take advantage of that.
Tickets can be purchased in person at any of the four theme park ticket windows or online, and then picked up at will call. Unfortunately, to activate
Florida Resident tickets, you need to be present (with the credit card) and show
proof of Florida Residency. Only adults over the age of 18 need proof of residency, so you can purchase tickets for the kiddos, but if the adults don’t have that proof, you will not be able to buy tickets for them.
While your family is visiting, I think a fabulous place to go on a “date” with the grandkids is
Toy Story Land at
Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The adults will love the “vintage” toys, and everyone can get in on the fun on
Slinky Dog Dash and at
Toy Story Mania! I say whoever “wins” treats everyone to breakfast at
Disney Junior Play ’n Dine, where the kiddos can meet their favorite Disney Junior pals, and everyone can enjoy some delicious Mickey waffles!
Catherine, if you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to come back. I hope you all enjoy playing BIG on your
upcoming visit!
