Beyond the Attractions: A Guide to Walt Disney World with Preschoolers (2012) for eReaders

My son recently started Kindergarten and during orientation the school principal spoke about technology and preparing today’s students for tomorrow’s jobs. The school is in the midst of meeting its goal to bring iPads into the classrooms. It was a powerful reminder of how technology is driving change in just about every aspect of our lives from education to entertainment.

Today, I don’t have to make a trip to the library or local bookstore to get my hands on the latest bestseller. In seconds, I can download a digital version of the novel to an eReader such as Amazon’s Kindle or the nook from Barnes and Noble. There are even renderers for the PC.

With space for thousands of books, eReaders are especially convenient for travel. Instead of packing bulky books in my suitcase, I can save the space and use it for souvenirs instead.

I’m thrilled that the 2012 edition of Beyond the Attractions: A Guide to Walt Disney World with Preschoolers is now available for the Kindle and the nook. Readers who prefer digital books can start planning their vacations with preschoolers immediately. If you prefer the feel of a book in your hands, do not worry. The print version will be available through Amazon shortly.

What’s Inside Beyond the Attractions?

This 202 page Walt Disney World travel guide has all the information parents need to plan an unforgettable Walt Disney World vacation with kids, ages 2-5. As a mom and Disney veteran who regularly visits Walt Disney World with my young family, I packed Beyond the Attractionswith child-focused information, tips, and insights from a parent’s perspective.

Preschooler-focused information in this guidebook includes must-do attractions for toddlers and preschoolers; attraction elements that may scare small kids; the best attractions for the little daredevils in your family; attractions the whole family can enjoy together; hidden activities when your kids need a change of pace; ideas to keep the kids entertained while waiting in line; descriptions of each Walt Disney World resort; the best restaurants and dining experiences for kids; child-focused recreation; safety tips for your vacation; a preschooler packing list and vacation planning timeline; and maps showing the locations of preschooler-friendly attractions in Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

New in the 2012 edition are tips for successful multigenerational travel, previews of the Fantasyland expansion, recent additions to attractions and hidden activities, and updated information on lodging, dining, and recreation. The expanded resources include special events, baby gear rentals; grocery and baby supply delivery services; medical care facilities and pharmacies, a handy guide to dining and recreation rates, and character greeting locations.

With technology changing so quickly, I cannot wait to see how we will be reading books by the time my son graduates grammar school.
