Hi Margaret!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Thank you for sending us such a wonderful question. What a lucky granddaughter you have! A Walt Disney World Resort first visit with grandma? That is positively awesome!
One of my favorite ways of making my family’s Walt Disney World Resort vacations extra special is by making arrangements for Disney Character Dining experiences. With Character Dining your granddaughter will be able to get up close and personal with Disney Characters, capture priceless pictures and enjoy a delicious meal!
There are currently
18 Character Dining venues at Walt Disney World Resort! Some of my favorites are:
• Chef Mickey’s at Disney’s Contemporary Resort
• Cinderella’s Royal Table at Magic Kingdom Park
• Tusker House Restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Reservations are highly encouraged and can be made 180 days in advance of your vacation. You can make reservations by dialing (407) 939-1947.
Mom’s Quick Tip: Don’t forget to pick up a complimentary “First Visit” celebration button for your granddaughter at the front desk of your Disney Resort hotel, Guest Services or at any of the theme parks. This will let all Cast Members know it is her first visit and she will get extra attention throughout your stay!
Margaret, I wish you an unforgettable vacation. If you have any more questions please visit us again.
With Lots of Pixie Dust,
Priscila
