for autographs we did something fun- I picked up 10 Disney postcards (from the Post Office) (the # of days we would be there)- had the Characters autograph them, we dated them & wrote a little something on them from our day, we started mailing them to ourselves the last day or two & they were still arriving a few days after our return. The kids (not to mention me) thought it was great.
I know what you mean.
I have a week off from school (Long Island schools are enjoying February Break.) So what do I do, you ask? Laundry? Dishes? Lesson Planning?
nope!
I'm alternating between the DIS and a table of the rides and attractions at WDW, classifying each as a Must See, Optional, or a Skip, and listing height and other requirements.
I'm such a nerd!!!
Bumping this helpful thread!
Where in LI ? I'm in Hicksville. I am taking my DS5 for the first time in Dec for his Bday. I have become totally obsessed with the DIS!
My poor DS has been totally neglected, my DH wonders why the house is in such disarray. I told him it was Mickey's fault.
I think you are my hero!!! !
Wow what a great thread.
Native NYer I have a good paking list but it's in french but I could translate it for you if you want!
I have a box in my wardrobe that I fill with stuff for their backpack they'll use on the plane. I kept empty skittles or mini M&M container and put 5 or 6 crayons in them so when ever we need to wait, they can draw in the home made autographs books I made (I use a sketch book from our arts & crafts store). I also bought finger puppets at IKEA that we can use to entertain them in lines or restaurants.

I love this thread.. I'm getting great ideas. I was wondering if you can get pins that say "1st trip" or something like that somewhere?
