Your First Disney World Trip With Kids

The Deyewa Family Disney Planning Guide

Planning your first Disney World vacation with kids? Excited about the trip but already overwhelmed by all the decisions?

I get it! Between choosing the right hotel, figuring out park tickets, deciding which rides to prioritize, and trying to keep everyone happy, planning Disney World can feel like a full-time job.

When we planned our first Disney World vacation with three kids and Grandma, I spent months researching, comparing options, and putting together itineraries. We visited all four Disney World theme parks, spent a day at Blizzard Beach, and had an amazing time!

But not everything went according to plan, and that's exactly why I created this guide.

This isn't a generic Disney guide. It's a practical, step-by-step planning resource built around our family's real experience, including what worked, what didn't, and what I'd do differently next time.

What's Inside?

• Step-by-step trip planning: How to choose your dates, decide how long to stay, set a budget, and plan your park days.
• Hotel and transportation decisions: What to consider when choosing where to stay, including our experience staying off Disney property.
• All 4 Disney World parks: Sample itineraries for Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom.
• Our original plans vs. reality: See what we planned, what we actually accomplished, and the lessons we learned along the way.
• Planning for kids of different ages: How we managed thrill rides, younger children, and splitting into groups without anyone missing out on the fun.
• Budgeting and saving money: How we used travel rewards to help cover our hotel, tickets, and rental car, plus the extras we'd skip next time.
• Practical family travel tips: Strollers, snacks, packing, rest days, weather, and handling long wait times.
• 9 planning worksheets: Printable worksheets to help you organize your budget, ride priorities, daily itineraries, packing lists, and more.

A Little Note From Me

I'm not a Disney expert or travel agent. I'm a mom who planned our first Disney World vacation, learned a whole lot along the way, and wanted to make the process easier for other families.

My biggest takeaway? You don't have to do everything to have an amazing Disney vacation. You just need a plan that works for your family.

Happy planning!

With love,

Deyewa
