This is my idiot’s guide to taking kids to Walt Disney World. We’ll cover all ages (toddlers, preschool, teenagers), when to book, what gear to bring, touring tips, dealing with queues, characters, scary attractions, rider switch, where to stay, food, merchandise, and baby care centers.
Would love to hear from your on experiences in the comments (I’ll be taking notes) 🙂

Another AMAZING video. Thank you so much!!!
Strollers are important also to store park bag and merchandise. My feet about fall off at the end of a long park day. My kids wouldn’t have as much fun. PS I’m a Floridian and my first memories in life are at 2 yo at Magic kingdom just saying.
I'm taking my 8 year old daughter for Christmas break. All of your videos are so helpful.
Excellent content.
I’ve been to Disney multiple times but taking our kids who will be just turning 2 and 5 in May for the first time and this was really helpful! Love the idea of taking an early lunch. We are staying at the contemporary in a villa and can’t wait! Another rule I’m setting for myself to help with costs is they can only pick 2 toys per day 😅
Thanks for making kid-centric content! I’m no novice in terms of WDW, but I always welcome tips and tricks that I may not have thought of!
Great video, super useful advice. Thanks a lot!
Thanks, appreciate the video.
I’m 9 my family’s kinda broke and I really wanna but I don’t think we ever will
Do you know if all disney orlando parks have halloween events on at the same time? When I booked my universal holiday I hadn't realised they closed the parks for an event, but it leaves us 7 evenings with nothing to do, cirque has closed, blue man has closed, I won't have anything to do with sea world, but if we could visit Disney when the halloween event is on at majic kingdom could we go to the other Disney parks with out having to add on event tickets? Hope that makes sense . Thanks
*LIKE THIS COMMENT IF YOU LOVE TAKING YOUR TODDLER TO DISNEY ❤
I’m so glad I found this video. I’m planning to take my kids there next week and I was lost coz there’s so much to do.
Stumbled onto your channel contemplating planning the big trip. Your message and tone is very genuine, helpful. Thanks so much
Too gud
We bought a stroller from Wallmart for 30 dollars .. BARGAIN !!
We’re going for my sons 6th bday and he wants to do slinky dog and big thunder more than anything else there so we’ll make sure to do both of those first thing in the day at those parks. Everything else will be easy pest play it by ear and I’m really excited!
Hi mate, your videos are great. Me and my wife are taking our 4 year old in September. Would you think that Star Wars rise of the resistance is suitable for that age?
Also, do you know if you can book a day at a specific park for 3 people, not check into it until later (say 5/6pm) and still do park hops?
3rd party stroller rental was WONDERFUL. Really nice, comfortable double stroller for my 2 kids under 6 and the shade canopy was a lifesaver. A few naps were had in it and it was a great "home base" for the kids anytime there was an upset. We had the same one all week so we could use it even when we weren’t in the parks and it wasn't much more expensive than renting one for park days.
What was that adult sized adventure course with the rope bridge etc?!
This was verrrry helpful! Your videos are so easy on the eyes and so organized!
Shit man you complain alot makes me anxious tp traven there ffs 🤦🏾♂️
I'm staying off site but travelling in for 1 day maybe 2 between universal and other attractions in Florida chose not to drive with 3 children 1 year /3year and a 5 so would you recommend magic Kingdom also about getting to the parks will I need to check before about car seats
