What to do in Orlando with small kids besides Disney?

@Mame,

Bring a stroller - the little one will nap when she gets exhausted and you simply push her around while she naps.

@DrewDad,

Or do like I did - borrow it from the library for free.

Yes the restaurants in Epcot often times have shows/acting stuff while you eat. My daughters got a belly dancing lesson at Morroco - and don't worry too much about kid friendly meals - each of the restaurants should provide some kid food.

I remember the Morrocan Pavillion for its hats.
I got a leather hat with a very broad brim
against the sun, which was painfully oppressive.

....IF!!! ..ur staying at the hotel, but in case one park at the huuuugeeee parking lot, one should still note which shuttle bus it is, else it's kinda impossible to find.

@HexHammer,

Its a good idea to stay in the Disney hotels.
Disney has some good ones.
My favorites are the Grand Floridian Hotel
(with the Victoria & Albert Restaurant)
and the giant log cabin; is that "Wilderness Lodge"?? I 'm not sure.
Beautiful hotels, with extra benefits!

We are staying at a Disney Hotel and there are free shuttles. She's a bit big for a stroller - she wears a size 5, but maybe they'll have larger ones. And we had to pay for her tickets to Magic Kingdom Park - nothing was free Sad

Disney have had some rough time as of late with low earnings, why they have to suck people dry for every nit picking thing possible.

@Mame,

They have big strollers and you are going to need one. After three or four hours on the go, she can ride or you can carry her, but I doubt she is going to willingly trek through the park. I've got pictures of one on my back while pushing one in a stroller.

@Mame,

They do have larger strollers there you can rent - again it costs - nothing is free!

We were fortunate - several years ago, we went out to CA - my friend lives in the next town over from Disneyland. My friend knew some one who worked at Disney and she let us in free each day.

@Mame,

I would like interrupt this thread and ask Mame how her trip to the Yucatán was? Apparently, you were not kidnapped and held for ransom by a roaming Mariachi band.

Everyone be sure to leave plenty of TIP MONEY behind.

(That works GREAT in Las Vegas; [ cover your eyes, Plain.])
