Thanks Lindsey. So glad you enjoyed it. I loved making it. Especially the montage!

[@PanamaJones7]

We’re taking our 3 year old next week!! I’m so happy I found your vlog.

[@magicalmomlaura]

Fun! We will be there next week too! This time with a 4 year old. Have the best time and thanks for saying hi.

[@katiegsteiner]

Love this video! So many good tips.

[@magicalmomlaura]

Thanks so much! I appreciate it!

[@tobinjc1]

So helpful! Thanks - going in August from Australia with our then almost 3 year old. Staying at Disney Swan - So excited!

[@magicalmomlaura]

Have fun! We just stayed at Dolphin a couple of weeks ago. Tomorrow my review will be up on my channel for the resort.

[@AshleyReavesFit]

This video was very helpful! I’ve been to Disney several times, but we’re planning our very first trip with our 3 1/2 year old this year. It was so nice to hear all of your realistic tips and tricks. I’m always stressing about EVERYTHING and this video gave me some peace of mind ❤

[@magicalmomlaura]

Aw! I'm so glad! There's a lot to stress over with Disney but I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time. Thanks for letting me know it means a lot!!!

[@michellebutiu4268]

Very informative and helpful tips for all parents who have and traveling young toddlers . Thanks for sharing. Laura.

[@magicalmomlaura]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sarahmcguire]

This is so helpful!! 🤍

[@magicalmomlaura]

Glad you think so! Thanks for watching!

[@footferrie]

Hello also from outside Philly! We're taking our (to be) 9 month old son to Disney and a cruise in August and I'm just tearing through videos to get ideas. This was very helpful, thank you!

[@magicalmomlaura]

Hi neighbor. Have fun! Sounds like a dream vacation. I'm so glad it was helpful.

[@tobinjc1]

Also my daughter also does the 2 finger suck! So cute.

[@magicalmomlaura]

Really? You don't see that a lot. It's constant! Dentist says it needs to stop at 4.

[@Love2Snorkle]

Man...this came 5 days too late! Good thing I watched all of your other ones!

[@magicalmomlaura]

Oh no! I hope you had a magical vacation!

[@shealynnmichelle]

My first trip back to Disney World in 5 years will be in April of 2023, and that will be my daughter’s first trip ever 🤩

[@magicalmomlaura]

How exciting! Have fun! How old will she be?

[@shealynnmichelle]

@@magicalmomlaura She’ll be 21 months old!

[@angelalane6004]

We live outside Philly as well! We’re going for my daughters first birthday first week of December ❤️ we’re staying at non Disney for the first time (Swan and Dolphin), have you ever stayed there? This will also be our first time doing Disney with a baby! Thanks for your videos!

[@magicalmomlaura]

We did stay there a long time ago. It's very nice and you can't beat the location. My only complaint is I miss the theming and imagineering of Disney Hotels at the Swan and Dolphin. First week of December is such a great time to go. Have fun! If you are sharing on instagram or anything let me know and I will follow!

[@nicolefisher4779]

I live in north Orlando and have a 3 month old but I am planning to take my daughter for her 2nd birthday but I doubt I’ll be able to wait that long lol

[@magicalmomlaura]

Aw. Take her! Even if she doesn’t remember you will and she will be free!

[@bebeparis3480]

They have potty covers disposable ones on amazon.

[@magicalmomlaura]

Have you tried them? I was worried they would scoot around too much and slip off.

[@kyleedwards5378]

Thank you for the informative video. We’re hoping to take our toddler(20 mo) to Magic Kingdom in March. Can you give me a realist number of rides we should expect to get her on in one day?

[@magicalmomlaura]

There's so many factors. If she likes rides, how busy it is, how long you are there, did she nap well, are you doing sit down meals or quick service. I would say between 3-8 depending on all those factors. Thanks for watching and saying hi. Have the best time!

[@KristinM2288]

Your little one’s freak out on the bus was actually cute. My daughter was 18 months and cried and had a deafening scream for the ENTIRE 3.5 hour plane ride. We tried everything. Worst experience I’ve ever had with her. Now we are flying to Disney again in 2 months and I am terrified.

[@magicalmomlaura]

That sounds like my worst nightmare. Hopefully people around you were kind and understanding. Bring treats and movies!

[@ginettcaballero2309]

Can you put a link to the bed rail that you mentioned? I’m having a hard time finding one like that. Please and thank you!

[@magicalmomlaura]

Disney provides the bed rails. Just call down to housekeeping and they will bring it up.

[@kristinbranson4970]

I love Disney world but haven’t been with my daughter yet, she’ll be 3 in June and trying to pull off a long weekend next month. Since you just went with your 3 year old did you find you used the stroller a lot? Mine hasn’t ridden in a stroller in forever since she loves running around but I know the parks can be exhausting. And if you used, was it an umbrella stroller?

[@magicalmomlaura]

I would say a stroller is a must. We walk around 7-10 miles a day and we go all day to maximize park time. Here's the travel stroller we have: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWqQf52fo7-mbKM If you are just going one time then you can rent one at Disney or there are Orlando companies that rent out the popular baby jogger too and deliver them to your hotel. As she gets older we have left the stroller at one spot in the parks for hours and come back to get it later. Hope that helps! Have fun!

Hi laura.. it's me me. Your disney minnie ears giveaway winner.. thank you so much..

[@magicalmomlaura]

Oh no. It’s a different account. Can you comment under the other one?

[@neryluzceballos4377]

Me again, you mentioned something about a carrier and how you just held your daughter. Do you mean the carrier where they are strapped to your chest? Does Disney allow you to have your baby in one of those on the rides?

[@magicalmomlaura]

Yep! I had 2 baby carriers a moby wrap and a Lillebaby carrier. We brought the Lillebaby carrier on her first trip at 13 months but never used it. I believe if babies can ride like on any height attractions (which there are a lot) then you can use the carrier but I don’t have experience with it so you’ll have to double check! Enjoy your vacation!

[@neryluzceballos4377]

@@magicalmomlaura awesome! Thank you so much.

[@cangambino]

Hello from Delaware County, Pa- couple minutes outside of Philadelphia! Thanks so much! Going to Disney all star movies in Aug 🫤🫠😂

[@magicalmomlaura]

Hello neighbor. I love it when Philly peeps find my channel. Have the best time! If you post on instagram follow me (disneymomlaura) and say hi. I’ll follow back to see all the fun!

[@neryluzceballos4377]

Did you have to take the bed rail or did Disney provide one? Also, we have those Princess onesies 😁

[@magicalmomlaura]

Disney has the bed rails. Mousekeeping will bring it to your room!

[@neryluzceballos4377]

@@magicalmomlaura that's cool!

[@moniqueholloway3084]

So can 2 and under get on rides?

[@magicalmomlaura]

Sure. They have height requirements so check those. That is one of my favorite things about Disney with small kids. There are so many rides everyone can ride. Especially in magic kingdom.

[@astraviil3043]

Dear parents! Let the kids choose their favourite Disney Parks souvenirs!!! When the kids are very good, then they deserve more souvenirs. Every good behaviour kid should have 1-2 bags of Disney Parks souvenirs: plush toys, toys, mini figures, bubble blower, Mickey ears, t-shirts, jacket, drinking bottle, and some pins or magnets and etc. Please buy only those Disney Parks souvenirs, what the kids very want!!!! I know many Disney souvenirs are very expensive, but when the kids are very good all the times, then sometimes they deserve these things!!! Please be kind parents and make Your kids very happy with these Disney Parks souvenirs, what the kids have chosen and don’t say NO all the times, when the kids very deserves those Disney Parks souvenirs for good behaviour!!! Respectfully, Astra Viil 😊🙏
