food IS a theme park
Although Disney World really hasn’t had a slow season all year, we are starting to see fewer crowds and lower wait times in the parks.
Time to book a flight?
It does make sense because kids are back in school right now, meaning that NOW might be the ideal time to visit Disney World. Now, Southwest Airlines is giving you ANOTHER reason to book a last-minute trip (and by last-minute, we mean THIS WEEK).
Going to Disney World with little ones can be a definite challenge.
Cinderella Castle
The days are long, schedules aren’t what you’re used to at home, and there’s so much to do that it can be a challenge to decide what to prioritize! So where do you start once you get to the parks? We reached out to our readers and asked “What’s your #1 must-do in each park for families with small children?” Today, we’re sharing their answers so that YOU can be prepared!
Looking forward to watching the iconic Disney World fireworks but aren’t sure where to stand or how to get the best view of them? Well, we’ve got ya covered!
Welcome back! (For now)
We’ve scouted out some of our personal favorite fireworks spots at Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and EPCOT. And we are sharing ALL of them with you now.
Disney World is packed with surprises.
Cinderella Castle
Sometimes you show up, and they’re celebrating Halloween in April. Other times, you find yourself needing a rowboat to get around Disney’s Hollywood Studios (not really, but the flooding was pretty bad this summer). Like we said, the resort is full of surprises, and today, we spotted something unique in Magic Kingdom!
Do you ever wonder how Disney World does it all? Between restaurants, gift shops, rides, shows, character meet-and-greets, and more, there’s a LOT that goes into keeping the theme parks running smoothly.
Magic Kingdom
In order to keep everything in spit-spot shape, Disney sometimes has to close down attractions for refurbishments. They might touch up the paint, check the safety features, clean various elements, etc. There are a few closures happening next week in the parks, so find out what’s NOT going to be available during your upcoming vacation here!

If you’re looking for a new pair of Minnie Ears in Disney World, get ready to be overwhelmed (we mean this in the best way possible).
So many ears!
There are snack ears, hotel ears, attraction ears, and even $600(!!!) ears. Seriously — there’s a lot to choose from. And Disney’s making your search for new ears even harder by throwing another 2 pairs into the mix. (Soooooorry!)
Okay, admit it, who collects Disney Loungefly bags? Honestly, it’s hard NOT to collect them because so many AMAZING designs are always coming out (why do you do this to us, Loungefly?).
We love Loungefly bags
Like how can we NOT have a Mickey Bar Loungefly Backpack? Or that Glow-In-The-Dark Haunted Mansion bag (seriously, it’s SO cool). That Three Caballeros Backpack? TAKE OUR MONEY, PLEASE! But what if we told you could now SAVE money on some Disney Loungefly bags?
If you’ve been to Disney World, it’s likely you have a favorite hotel.
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
It might just be your favorite hotel to visit on a resort day, or your favorite to stay in, you might have a preference based on budget. There are a LOT of Disney World hotels, and each offers something a little different to guests! We often visit hotels, too, to get the latest updates, so let’s check on what’s new!
Being a Disney World Annual Passholder comes with its share of perks.

One of our favorite places to eat in Disney Springs is The Polite Pig.
The Polite Pig goodies
After all, this is where we first discovered the joy that is Gideon’s Bakehouse cookies. But we also love the seasonal sides, as well as the delicious BBQ meats. However, some updates have just hit the menu at The Polite Pig, so let’s take a look at the changes!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
