Planning a trip to Walt Disney World with preschoolers has never been easier.
Written by a mom and Disney veteran who regularly visits Walt Disney World with her small children, Beyond the Attractions: A Guide to Walt Disney World with Preschoolers (2012) contains child-focused information, tips, and insights from a parent’s perspective. Battista includes all the up-to-date details on toddler- and preschooler-friendly attractions, recreation, lodging, and dining in Beyond the Attractions, but goes well beyond the shows, rides, resorts, and food to consider the logistical challenges that are part of traveling with small children. Learn about family-friendly services at Walt Disney World such as stroller rentals, Baby Care Centers, and child care options that will enhance your visit and the memories of your Walt Disney World vacation.

How about a pity copy for an apparently illiterate, obviously overworked, and definitely sleep-deprived mother of preschool twins who moronically thought the contest was still on?
The Carousel at the Magic Kingdom is an all-time favorite.
My son’s favorites are: the Disney Railroad Train, the Monorail, any parking lot tram, Big Thunder Railroad and Splash Mountain.
My daughter’s favorites are: Soarin’, Finding Nemo, and the Character Spot (all in Epcot).
My 4-yr-old twins LOVE Finding Nemo!
My son’s favorite ride is Big Thunder Mountain!!! We rode it 5 times last year! Next October we are taking my 2 neices who are 2 and 3 and this book would be a LIFE SAVER!!! Id love to get my hands on a copy!

I have not yet taken my little girl. But I’m almost positive if it involves Ariel she will be in love.

I shared on my facebook page! Chelsea Joann Roberts – check it out!
I just keep thinking of more! This one isn’t necessarily my toddler’s favorite….But I LOVE PhilharMagic! We always go to that one at least a couple times on our trip!
OH – The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was my daughters favorite on our first trip down to Disney! She loved it so much we had to get her a stuffed Pooh to carry around the rest of the trip!
One that my daughter hasn’t experienced since she was only 7 months (our last trip it was down for maintainance) is Small World. I know my niece LOVED the music as a toddler. I look forward to seeing my daughters reaction to it on our next trip!
One of my favorite for my little girl is Turtle Talk with Crush!!!

I know this sounds silly as a favorite attraction, but the Baby Centers are amazing! Sometimes you just need to chill out (in the air conditioning!) and watch a cartoon. The Baby Centers are a great way to avoid a Disney overload meltdown 🙂 It was also a fantastic place when I was nursing. It was a private, relaxing place to feed my daughter.
I cannot wait to check out the Disney Junior show when we go in April! My girls love Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, and Little Einsteins!
My daughter loved the Jungle Cruise last time we went!
My daughter loves everything about Disney… She is wanting to go to Animal Kingdom for her birthday next year… My son will be going for the first time in a couple of weeks and Since he already is in love with Mickey Mouse I am sure he will also be a huge Disney fan… I cant wait to see His excitment
We will be taking 5 kids this book would be so helpful!
My daughter loved Small World. Plus the carousel. She was only 18 months old. Now we are planning a second trip (she’s 4!) and our son is 16 months. we are going in December to catch the holiday stuff, and a guide on how to make our trip the BEST TRIP EVER would be awsome!

This will be her fourth trip and is seeking the elusive Mulan autograph.
My son’s favorite ride is the rockin roller coaster!
My son is so excited about visiting disney world for the first time! I can say he will more than likely LOVE POTC and the disney Jr show! This book will be so useful in planing our first trip 🙂

YAY CHIP! ANOTHER AWESOME GIVEAWAY! SO HOPE I WIN THIS FOR OUR UPCOMING TRIP!!
I am a friend of both pages! 🙂
Since I have only ever taken my DD to WDW- one of the rides she liked the best was Dumbo. She loved controlling it to go up and down. We are excited about the expansion of this ride!
I’m actually planning my WDW Honeymoon for Oct. 2012, and one of the rides that I haven’t been on is Tower of Terror. Since there will be no kids, I won’t have to worry about rides I won’t be able to go on. 🙂
My fav. ride for kids has to be the dumbo ride at Disneyland!!! It’s ultimately one of my favorites and i love to experience it with my daughter! I also love taking her on Pirates of the Carribean. The first time she was fine and then after that she started to get scared of pirates. Don’t know where that came from but I’m trying to let her know that pirates won’t hurt her, lol.
I am a friend of Chip & Co and Beyond the Attractions on Facebook (Cassie Di Mauro).
Favorite thing to do with the kiddo’s is yet to be determined. We are headed there this fall and can’t wait to see what the kids enjoy!!!
My daughter loves to ride Kilimanjaro Safari to see the animals. One morning she got to see the lion do his morning roar, and she was set for the day!
We also love Winnie the Pooh! My oldest is crazy about all things Pooh!
We love “it’s a small world”! I have been singing the song to my daughters since they were born!
The kids just love turtle talk with crush. The interaction reallyt makes gthem believe crush is talking to them, It’s one of my favourites too.
my son loved Space Ranger Spin…and he was actually mad that at 4 years old he wasnt tall enough for Tower of Terror.
Fan of both pages 🙂 My son Loves Toy Story Mania!
Well I haven’t been to Disney with my daughter yet (she is 15 months old) but I think she would like the Dumbo ride and just seeing everyhing that is going on in the Magic Kingdom. 🙂
My toddler was almost 2 the last time we went and The Haunted House was not scary yet for him, but I think now that he is almost 3, and understands more, it would be. I would say for younger toddlers the Haunted House wouldn’t be scary.
Peter Pan was also a great hit as well as Winnie The Pooh!
I Like both the pages on Facebook now and commented on Beyond The Attractions that you sent me. 🙂 For my preschooler, we loved Dumbo and Astro Orbiter.
We love the Peter Pan ride! Always our first stop!
I can’t write on Beyond the Attractions FB wall for some reason! My boys love Peter Pan’s Flight, BuzzLight Year Space Ranger Spin, and Toy Story Mania.
