Hey there, Crystal! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
I'm so glad you stopped by with your question. With seven kids under 13, I bet your house is so much fun! I like that you're planning ahead and considering what options will be best for your brood financially. I'm happy to report that we have lots of ideas for larger families!
First up, there are currently a few
Special Offers available that are worth considering. Take a look at the
4-Park-Magic-Ticket Offer and the
room discount offer. If these aren't a good fit for your family, keep checking back. While I can't guarantee if or when another special offer is released, it's always helpful to keep checking... and you might be rewarded!
Next, I would encourage you to consider the time of year you're hoping to travel. Ticket prices are different based upon the time of year. If you are flexible in your dates, you can definitely keep more pennies in your pocket! Here you can
check out current ticket prices per date.
You might be thinking,
but where would we stay? A few different Disney Resort Hotels offer
Family Suites. You'll find a fun and affordable option at
Disney's All-Star Music Resort with complimentary transportation to and from the parks! Another way we keep our Walt Disney World Resort vacation in the budget is through the
Disney Dining Plan. If you're unfamiliar, this allows you to pre-pay for food for each night of your stay. There are three plans to choose from based upon how you like to eat while you're touring the parks!
Crystal, I hope this helps kick-start your Walt Disney World research and you're able to find a good vacation fit for your family. Please come back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel with any other questions. We are here to help!
