Top 5 Disney World Moments Children Can’t Miss

A Disney World vacation can be the highlight of a childhood filled with family vacations, and with so many great options it’s not always easy deciding what to do. Planning a Disney trip with one child in mind is hard enough, but if you have several children that you will be taking to Disney World, making sure they each do things they enjoy can be a challenge. Thankfully, there are so many can’t miss moments found in every Disney park that are at the top of the list for every single visitor, no matter their age.

Kilimanjaro Safari

The Animal Kingdom is the most overlooked parks by guests at Walt Disney World, but not by Disney. It is a fantastic place to spend an entire day with kids, especially those that are enthusiastic about animals. While some guests pass it off as an expensive zoo, you only need to pass through the gates to know that it is so much more. The Kilimanjaro Safari is one of those rides that children remember for years, and is one that you shouldn’t miss. Everyone boards an open air safari jeep that makes its way through an entertaining and wild trip through the safari. Lines are short enough and every trip is different so don’t hesitate to get in line again if children make the request.

Mickey Mouse & Friends Greeting

Every child, and guest, at Disney World cannot miss a stop to see Mickey Mouse and friends. This is one of the most popular moments and photo opps in the whole park, with everyone lining up for photos, autographs and hugs, where ever the characters congregate. Check park listings to find out where characters will have scheduled meet n greets, but your best option is to reserve a character meal time when kids can get plenty of one on one time with several characters all at once. You also can consider a Fast Pass.

The Pirate’s League in Adventureland

Disney is all about giving in to fun and make believe, so why not indulge in the ultimate make believe experience and let your children have their moment as a pirate. Head over to Adventureland and let children take part in The Pirate’s league experience, where they will can dress up, wear face paint, learn to be a pirate and set off to find treasure. Taking part in this experience also gives children the chance to be a part of a very special and fun Parade of Pirates through Adventureland. If you have more of a princess, check out the Bibbidi Bobbidi Botique in Downtown Disney or the Magic Kingdom.

Toy Story Midway Mania

This ride at Disney World (Disney’s Hollywood Studios) is so popular because its so much fun, but it also provides families with good memories because it has a way of making kids out of all of us. Children love it when their parents get down to business and compete in this video game ride with them, nothing wrong with fun competition. Make sure to ride Toy Story Mania together, as a family and its sure to be one of your favorite moments of your entire vacation. If you still want to grab more of Buzz, also check out the Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin.

Wishes Nighttime Spectacular

There are a lot of ways to spend an evening at Disney World, and with two parks putting on firework shows, it can be hard to choose where to end your night. Disney World makes it easy for families to pick and children will definitely be thrilled to see the Wishes Nighttime Spectacular in The Magic Kingdom. More than just a firework show, Wishes inspires kids to dream and sends them to bed with stars in their eyes.

These are the top 5 Disney World moments that children can’t miss. Each one is iconic, sure to create memories and fun for children of all ages.

All Purpose Cleaner DIY – Clean Ingredients In Your Home

All Purpose Cleaner DIY

Pin to Pinterest

Making your own all-purpose cleaner could not be easier, is cheaper and is so much safer than the chemical filled bottles you pick up at the store. 4 ingredients are all you need (and maybe a little elbow grease) to create a safe, effective, and wonderfully scented cleaner that can be used on counters, appliances, floors, or anywhere else you need to clean and disinfect. The scent is lovely, fresh, and bright!

Ingredients:

1 Cup Water
1 Cup Vinegar
2 tsp. Dish Soap or Castile Soap
10 drops Lavender Essential Oil
10 drops Lemon Essential Oil (also nice with Orange)
Spray Bottle

Directions:

The first time you make this, purchase vinegar in the large glass bottle. When you need more Vinegar, it is more cost effective to purchase it by the gallon and refill (earth friendly too).
Pour all ingredients into a Spray Bottle. Plastic tends to erode so try a glass spray bottle if you are usuing this solution long term. A Mason Jar works great too.
Swirl gently to combine.
Spray and wipe.

Enjoy.

You will have an initial light vinegar scent after use but that will dissipate when the vinegar dries. Vinegar and oils will cut grease, disinfects, and deodorize surfaces.

I suggest testing this out on your counter tops and floors before use. I do not recommend it on Travertine or Marble.

Chocolate Dipped Cookie Dough Bites

Pin to Pinterest

I am incredibly guilty. If there was a self-help group for eating chunks of cookie dough, I would be a member. This yummy recipe includes a few of my favorites in chocolate chip cookies – brown sugar, butter, vanilla and NO EGGS! You will be happy to delcare this as your family’s favorite cookie recipe!

Note: For Easter, we shapped these into Eggs!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2/3 cup Flour
1/4 cup Chocolate Chips
4 tbsp softened Butter
2 tbsp Milk
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Vanilla
8 oz Chocolate Dipping Candy

Directions:

Line a tray with parchment or wax paper.
Heat flour in microwave for 2 minutes (internal temp 160). Careful you do not burn it.
Mix together brown sugar, butter, vanilla and salt until well mixed.
Add in milk and gradually add flour until desired dough consistensy is reached.
Stir in chocolate chips.
For Easter, we chose to form these into egg shapes (you can do another shape like circles.)
Place in freezer for at least 30 minutes.
Melt chocolate by microwaving for 30 seconds, stirring and repeating until melted and smooth.
Use a fork to dip each egg into chocolate, shake off excess and place on prepared tray.
Place in refrigerator until chocolate sets.

This yields about 15 smaller bites or 8 larger ones.
