Posted on by AllEars
Less than a week ago, Glow With The Show ear hats debuted at Walt Disney World during a Fantasmic performance. On Saturday, the hats began working with the Celebrate the Magic castle projection show and the Wishes fireworks presentation at the Magic Kingdom, and my children and I were in the thick of the crowds on Main Street, U.S.A., to witness the first displays.

Kid-friendly foods at Epcot International Food and Wine Festival

Posted on by AllEars
Although my elementary-school-age kids are like most others, a little bit of Disney magic this time of year turns them into discerning foodies. Every year, Epcot's Food and Wine Festival transforms my children, ages 9 and 11, into adventurous eaters. One child usually is a bit pickier than the other, but you wouldn't know it when it comes time to sample the dishes at the international marketplaces at Walt Disney World.

Tiki Room Birds in Paradise

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Do you seek adventure? Head to Adventureland. Tikis, birds, and flowers will sing, dance, and play the drums for you. Sing along, they love the accompaniment. Just don’t like a bunch of old hens. Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room pre-show. I’m thrilled that the original show was restored. Clearly, the Under New Management version angered … Continue reading "Tiki Room Birds in Paradise"

This year, some guests at the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival have the opportunity to step into one of Walt Disney World's private party spaces -- free of charge. The Chase VIP Lounge has moved from the Festival Center in 2012 to the American Adventure Parlor this year, and it is open to all Chase Visa card members. Each card member may bring as many as nine guests. To access the space, there is a queue in front of the building, slightly to the right, where you can present your card.
