Today, I took my 3-year-old boy on a mommy and me trip for the first half of the day. His twin sister when a few weeks ago and had a great time exploring. My son was way more into powering through the rides than exploring and in a few hours, we managed to do quite a bit. It was hot even before rope drop, which translated to lower crowds than I was expecting. At noon, when we left, my car said it was 99 degrees outside.
So, what does my 3-year-old boy like? Pirates, Haunted Mansion, Small World, anything that spins (carousel, teacups, Dumbo), Buzz Lightyear, and looking at Star Wars stuff. We also popped over to DCA just to go on the Monster's Inc. ride and grab hot dogs for lunch before going home. Overall, it was a wonderful day.
Here are some pictures from the trip. I made sure to get a shot of the wench scene in Pirates since it won't be around much longer:
As a bonus, a sign went up recently (since the last time I was here) with information on the return of Fantasmic! I made my reservations on 7/6 for a dining package to see it with my oldest son on 7/25. I cannot wait!
And, as a final sidenote, one of the CMs actually asked me where he could get a stroller like mine for his own kid as it's a good size for a larger child without being bulky. My stroller for trips with just 1 kid is my First Years Ignite, which goes up to 50 lbs. and is tall enough that my 6'1" husband doesn't have to hunch over to push it. It was discontinued a few years back, but the Summer Infant 3D Lite is very comparable and only costs about $60. It has roughly the same specs and is a similar size.
